20% faster than what speed LTE? 4G (what the Long Term Evolution was supposed to reach) has a limit of 1Gbps [1]. I don't think I ever got a 1G speed on a 4G/L

20% faster than what speed LTE? 4G (what the Long Term Evolution was supposed to reach) has a limit of 1Gbps [1]. I don't think I ever got a 1G speed on a 4G/LTE phone. I have no doubt that 5G will be faster than 4G just as I have no doubt it won't meet any marketing promise.

The reality is that the higher capacity goes not towards giving you more speed, but towards supporting more users per cell.

I got close to that back when it was new. These days there’s too many users on most towers to achieve it.
