Despite all the ridicule and negative press AT&T received for deceiving customers with its “5G Evolution” service, the mobile carrier has stood its ground. The “5G E” symbol that indicates an AT&T subscriber is in range of a network that supports that fastest LTE technologies is still in tact, but a new report from Opensignal this Friday is about as damning an indictment of the misleading practice as we’ve seen since its introduction.
According to Opensignal, while AT&T users with 5G E-capable devices are receiving “a better experience than AT&T users with less capable smartphone models,” T-Mobile and Verizon users are getting better speeds on average with the same devices. 5G E isn’t just equivalent to 4G on other networks — it’s slightly worse.
