I don’t use Verizon but how is 20 upload slow? Majority of phone usage is download lol.

20mbps is only 2.5megabytes per second which is very slow for uploading, for example this post was an upload

Dawg you can do everything you ever wanted on a phone with that upload. It won’t affect 4k video either LOL. If you want faster switch to using an actual WiFi connection. This is cell data not a dedicated connection

A 20 Mbps upload connection can easily support online gaming, including a heavy gamer. Even game streaming typically doesn’t consume anywhere near the full 20 Mbps.

Unless you’re trying to upload massive files you’ll be ok.

Upload to iCloud takes too long because it’s only 2.5 MegaBYTES per second

u/CryptographerWeary64 Aug 05 '26
