But it’s also the case for me with T-Mobile. Which is odd, because my service wasn’t this shit when I was still with sprint.

When 5G came into my area, the difference in speed from 4G-LTE was EXTREMELY noticeable. There's a lot of factors that go into it, so everyone's experience is going to vary a bit here and there.
Like you said, LTE serves you well, so you don't need it/won't notice an increase in speed. I am on the go constantly and have a Hotspot capable of 5G where speeds are detrimental. It has been amazing for me!

Verizon honestly plays the only role in that. I'd wager to bet the phone works perfectly fine when there is ample signal around.

Why is it that Google hasn’t updated it either?

And you keep ignoring my point, even if it's only an India problem why is it that even Samsung is able to update it on time but apple doesn't? Is it just too lazy or doesn't want to do it?

If your service provider even has it. Never once seen my phone get 5g service. It’s either “LTE” or “1x” next to my cell service icon. Fuck T-Mobile, btw. I probably have drive an hour to go into downtown Cleveland to get 5G service. It’s literally a “Big City only” tech right now.

Difference between $90k projector and $5-10k projector won't be that much noticeable at that size, I think

The point of 5g was to spread Covid. Duh.

The 5G that runs on the lower Mhz bands isn't as fast as it's headline speed.
700Mhz that you mentioned, even on 5G is UP TO 300MBPs in ideal conditions.
You cannot defect physics.

Yes, you keep ignoring the common factor here - this is only a problem in India.
Duh.

When I use 5G on the 13, all the tests say my speed has gone to almost ~400 mbps, but everything is way slower. Videos take 10x longer to buffer, pages don’t load, etc. Soon as I switch to LTE, speeds even back out to ~40 and everything loads instantly

That’s a great question! I was not wearing my watch because the ocean water is toxic to it. Fairly certain you can’t swim with the watch in the ocean but perfectly fine in a pool!
