For me the problem is that you often can't even tell if you are really on 5G. Some carriers label certain types of 4G as 5G, and my understanding is that even if you have "real" 5G, it probably isn't mmWave 5G in most areas. So even if you are sitting there with a good connection on a mobile device that says "5G" in the corner, it's hard to say that 5G is really making a difference.
For example, I'm sitting here in my car far away from Wi-Fi. I just did a speed test with 5G on and off. On 5G, I got 63mbps up/16 down. With 5G off, I got 100mbps/25mbps (much faster).
