LTE Advanced with carrier aggregation can certainly deliver on speeds. Here is a fresh speedtest taken just now, were I'm getting 185Mbps down. I'm inside a building but only 1 block from the cell site and I'm getting 3x Carrier Aggregation on 2.5GHz (band 41) on Sprint. I'll admit these are pretty ideal circumstances for a speed test but I just opened the app an ran it to show the speeds are possible.
I've often found the most limiting factor (beside RF interference) is not LTE directly but the backhaul connections at cell sites. If you only have a 1 gig ethernet link, that limits your speeds when you get a handful of active users.
