5G phones can’t handle that yet, PCMag analyst Sascha Segan wrote: But 5G phones can’t add as many 4G channels to a 5G channel . So if they’re in 5G mode, they’re giving up 4G channels so they can use that extremely narrow, often 5MHz 5G channel, and the result is slower performance: faux G.

Low-band 5G operates on some of the same frequencies as 4G, delivering slightly faster speeds—think 50–60 Mbps—over long distances . It will work best in rural areas where people are more spread out and you can provide service with a handful of cellular towers.11 Kas 2021

T-Mobile 5G: What RootMetrics found RootMetrics ran its tests in the largest 125 cities in the U.S., and found that T-Mobile had the fastest 5G download speeds in 48 markets, compared to three for Verizon and zero for AT&T.
Read moreWhy is 5G so slow in the US?
So, why are some 5G connections so slow? The first, and most impactful, reason is that the far-reaching 5G signals that have powered the vast majority of carrier rollouts in the US – especially from AT&T and, to a lesser extent, T-Mobile – have used low-band carrier frequencies.
Read moreWhy 4G is faster than 5G?
Avg. But 5G is getting a strong foothold in many American cities, and speeds range from slightly faster than 4G LTE to exponentially faster by a wide margin. You can get faster speeds on 5G because 5G networks use higher-frequency radio bands to deliver signals .

Read moreWhy is 5GE slower than 4G LTE?
It is their LTE network, one in the same. It is not slower. It is their LTE network, one in the same. 5GE means 5G evolution, which is just lingo for AT&T doing incremental updates to equipment to eventually support 5G .
