    And 5G is mostly ass anyway. I feel like LTE is faster and EASILY more reliable everywhere I am. If I lose power at my house, I can barely send text only messages in any app.

      What phone are you using? My first 5G phone didn’t support midband 5G, and yeah, my experience was similar. Lowband 5G was maybe slightly faster than LTE, but wasn’t worth the lower battery life, higher heat, and spottier performance that was associated with early 5G radios.

      Now I’ve got a phone with midband 5G support and midband 5G kicks the shit out of LTE.

      I am still using LTE because it always works and is plenty fast for what I need to do on a mobile device. 5G also uses more battery too.
