Depends on the provider and which bands they are using for it. At least on verizon in my area it’s strictly worse
Social side aside, what is the point, isn't 4g everywhere these days?
In my experience, it's usually LTE but speed capped.
That's because you're not on those frequencies, see the other comments. 4G(+) works great, sure. You're not downloading 20 Gbps, are you?
At least at my location and with my carrier, 4G and 5G don't give anything close to those speeds
You'd be surprised. There are plenty of places where LTE isn't robust enough.
My LTE is frequently faster than my home cable.
Does your area have anything like 4G LTE? I wonder if cellphone tethering would actually give you better performance.
You are not the target market. You probably have LTE, and most likely a number of providers to choose from.To the people who are the target market - these things are of little consequence.
Upvote for funny.Its pretty ok on O2 4G for me. Everything else seems congested.
