For what it's worth, my usage reported by Verizon is typically within about 5% of what my phone reports. I just double checked and right now Verizon says I've used 2345MB and my phone says 2.26GB.
- gregrata 10y agoThat's 2.35 GB vs 2.26GB - how is that 5%
- Lazare 10y agoIs this sarcasm or...? The difference between those two numbers is 0.09 GB. 0.09 is 3.8% of 2.35, or 4.0% of 2.26, so whichever way you look at it, it would be correct to say the difference is "within 5%".
- ars 10y agoHe read it as 5% of (like 2 is 5% of 40) instead of within (i.e. accurate).
- fenomas 10y agoGP probably missed the "within".
- dmckeon 10y agoThe difference is even smaller if GB are power-of-2 Gibibytes: 2345MB is 2.29GB.
- Flimm 10y agoVerizon could be using one definition of GB and the phone another. (One more reason to use the unambiguous MiB, GiB units.)
