Walking around a big city leaves a lot to be desired with 4G. There are constant dead zones, bad hand-offs, poorly configured repeaters, and endless cement/concrete. I am very much looking forward to 5G foxing this.

  I’m not worried about in-building coverage. Most buildings have WiFi. I’m talking about walking block to block. If many more blocks have antennas, then my problem is solved.

    You must live in a different reality than me. There are many times when my LTE is better than any WiFi and that includes at work (pre-COVID) and home.

      Yeah, my 4G is fairly consistent and reliable whereas I just don't bother with WiFi if I can possibly avoid it. It's a hugely frustrating technology I think.
