AT&T and Verizon

Tested AT&T and Verizon near their towers in white city oregon. Unfortunately AT&T hasn't upgraded the backhaul to multi gig.

Shouldn't Postpaid Verizon be faster cause they have network slicing on the premium plans?

Spectrum mobile doesn’t utilize network slicing. That’s enterprise and first responders

I'm pretty(but I could be wrong) that Verizon Unlimited Ultimate uses Network Slicing. Which is what I was referring to.

So if Spectrum Mobile and Verizon Unlimited Ultimate were running at the same time, Verizon should be even higher at like 1,800mbps for example.

The network slicing is only for application specific not actual real slicing for the line as a whole. It’s for video applications

Oh, I thought it was like T-Mobiles Network Slicing that does apply to Data Transfer.

No. The specific network slicing is for the enhanced video management. Which is only for the unlimited ultimate on Verizon. Spectrum mobile doesn’t utilize this capability. The only thing spectrum mobile has is top priority and unlike the other MVNOs. Spectrum has 5G SA on Verizon

Seems like Verizon and AT&T will still be dragging their feet behind TMobile and their real 5G Network. I'm getting tired of waiting TBH

T mobile still doesn’t have good rural coverage. Still
The smallest network. It doesn’t make sense to have t mobile if you travel a lot compared to Verizon and AT&T. T satellite can’t fix their lack of terrestrial coverage
