Why is my LTE faster and more reliable than 5g
I have an iPhone SE (2022) in Sarasota FL and 5g is horrible and unreliable. I had to switch the phone to LTE to get any reasonable data activity and it’s much faster and more stable than 5g. I did many speed tests at different times of the day and LTE hands down is far superior to 5g. I don’t understand why? Any suggestions?
Man, this was 3 years ago and 5G is still horrible! I just got T-Mobile last week and I have my 15 Pro Max on LTE because it is FAR faster than their horrible 5G, which drains my battery and is super slow just simply loading pages. I don't know why T-Mobile lies to its customers and says their 5G is blazing, because it's obviously not. I think dial-up is faster!
There are a lot of things that can impact 5G speeds. When LTE was the premier technology that everyone was using. It wasn't as fast when the bulk of people were using it. The same applies to 5G. Larger cuties will have more potential congestion in very dense areas where more rural areas will have a bit more interference as trees bloom.
