Note 5 Internet speeds - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5

One reason I'm loving this Note 5 over the Iphone 6 Plus that I just sold is the Internet speeds. Damn I'm in the gym and before I could barely get 5 mbps and now I'm pulling over 40. Whoa I think I'm on band 12 I guess but wow. Can't go back now. Lol.

That's what I get off peak. This is the best I got but I average around 80s unless it peak hours then it drops to 40s.

Lack of band 12 in the iPhone is not good for T-Mobile. I convinced my wife to switch over from AT&T but her speeds and reliability don't compare to mine at all. Hopefully the 6S fixes this issue.

HSPA+ Speeds

With all the talk about cities lighting up with LTE, I just wanted to show what AT&T's HSPA+ network can do. Granted this test was done at 3am. Just last summer my area was still on EDGE. Also note that I only have two bars in my house.
Better than me... fastest I ever got was 4.4 Mbps... average is about 3.5

That's a little better than what I'm getting at Mich tech by Jim's. I get 6mbps down.It might be better late night but I've never seen 10mbps.
Spring break 2011 we got 1mbps 3g on AT&T.
Where'd you do the speed test?

I'm in Marquette. Hopefully we get lte soon, but until then I can live with hspa. I don't normally get 10, but I get 5-6 on a regular basis.

We were upgraded for 3G to Faux G over a year ago, but I still see 3Mbps at most. They have announced we will have LTE before year end.

Just got this message after tethering with my laptop for a couple minutes. Never happened before, I used it last maybe a week before. Did T-Mobile start cracking down or something on free tethering? Kind of irritating they never gave me **** before

It should still work fine as long as your data connection is active.

It isn't thought, the data cut out on my chrome book as soon as I got that text, but data on my phone was still good

If you are rooted you will be able to use apps which will allow you to use tethering although T-Mobile disabled it.

LG G2 T-mobile direct for $261

I had been planning on waiting for the Nexus 6 then last week I bought the LG G2 for $261 shipped. As it turns out the Nexus 6 will have these specs

I think it will be priced at $350 maybe $400, I saved $89 by choosing the LG G2 over the upcoming N6 the cameras look to be the same and so is the screen size, I could care less about the extra pixels since I don't think anybody would see the difference during actual use. However the SOC and extra 1GB is a nice improvement over the G2 that some of you would pay $89 for. Also the google software updates must be nice.
Overall I am glad I sprung for this phone and won't have to wait 2 months for a nexus that may or may not have better battery life. If it does I will be sad if it does not I will have undoubtedly made the right decision.
I am fixing to get mine out of lay away at the local trade it store can't wait been using a galaxy nexus for 3 years. Been watching all the leaks on shamu possibly being the nexus 6 but it may not be, either way I love the vanilla android and the fact that newer nexus devices get updates to the latest and greatest the g2 battery life is just crazy good compared to what I have been used to. Any way congrats on a great phone for a great price, I will prolly see you around on these g2 threads once I get mine and get it up and running

Personally average 15 hours with 6 hours screen on time. That puts me around 25% by the time I plug in.

I get about the same... Don't use it all the time tho..as I have a Moto z2 force also...
Currently at 49% battery left with just over 4hrs screen on time and ~17hrs uptime(charged to 99%)

Getting me excited
I mean if you plan to use Maps and Camera all day (my scenario when I'm as a tourist in a new city) don't expect to have more than 4 hours SoT.
But in a typical day usage from home to office / office to home / and then you go to sleep at night... some hearthstone and some photos here and there.
you can reach 6 hours average.

I am on T-Mobile and the connection speed seems to be on par with S10e that I traded in. During the day, it is usually slower(from 50 to 80MB), but closer to night the speed is 3 times better

I'm on T-Mobile and the Note 10+ is almost exactly the same as the Note 8 and 1P6T, all just above or slightly below 80Mbps.
