I tested where I happen to be, and T-mobile 5G was 7 Mbps and LTE was 34 Mbps

I’m not saying 5G can’t be better, but it’s rarely been better on T-mobile for me in about 5 different states in the US

Wow. 5G is consistently over 500 Mbps for me, and frequently upwards of 700Mbps with 50-100Mbps upload.

The issue is that “5G” is three different bands in one name

In the places where it’s low-band 5G and LTE is also available, LTE is significantly faster

If you’re in the downtown of a major city, high-band “mmWave” 5G will be faster
