- XFINITY MOBILE 5G SPEED TESTS: I conducted a series of Xfinity Mobile speed tests to check the download speeds using Verizon's 5G Ultra Wideband network. Download speeds topped 3,000 Mbps (3 Gbps) in one test, according to the Speedtest app. In this video, I share several other speed tests and my overall thoughts on 5G right now.

How mate' s price that celular?
Excellent video! the only thing that scares me about Xfinity mobile is how they have treated me as a cable and internet customer over the past 10 years. They have proven they cannot be trusted.
I understand. I'm also concerned about data caps coming. Makes it harder to want to stay with them for internet.
@@MichaelSaves it's very frustrating too. I'm looking at the unlimited plan but it seems like it has less features than pay by the gig.
I haven't tried the 5G Xfinity Mobile as yet because we have a pretty good family deal with Verizon. We've regretted it every time we've changed to a different provider. Our phones are currently all 4G. Will they run 5G or do we need to upgrade to a new 5G phone?
You can't get 5G without a phone that supports it. So for Apple the new iPhone 12 is the first that works with 5G. If you have a good family deal, I'm happy for you. Most people on Verizon postpaid are paying too much. As I mentioned I don't think you need to upgrade for 5G right away. Verizon has a LONG way to go to build out the network.
@@MichaelSaves Thank you, I'll check out the new iPhone 12 with 5G. I have a few phones for business on the Visible 4 G plan. We use Frontier high speed internet and are pretty happy with it.
@@Banagal oh cool well if you’re happy with your internet don’t switch to Xfinity Mobile. That’s their whole thing. They keep you as an internet customer and give you a break on the phone plan. 5G is coming to Visible in early 2021, BTW.
You get limited time offer of 6 month or even up to a year depending on how loyal of a verizon customer you are, of bill payment and new phones with your verizon account with Joseph Berg retail partnership store
@Arthur Javier The service he renders is the best, that's {josephbergg@gmail.com} he is quite quick in his reply to conversation if he is not busy.
I noticed that when you were getting “UW” speeds your phone wasn’t showing the icon that Verizon customers get. Other than the speed test, I’m assuming there’s no way to know you’re connect to UW band correct?
Yeah. It didn't have the little UW. I went based on the speeds and used the coverage map to visit locations with UW.
Go into service mode on your phone and it will tell you exactly what band you are connected to.
Pretty sketchy that they basically set up their plans so that you can run speedtest and be amazed and only realize later that you can't do much more than run speedtest before you're at like 10% of the bandwidth you thought you were getting for the remaining 29 days of the month. No thanks.
Phone call always dropped in my apartment it makes me so mad
What is the data cap for xfinity mobile When they will start throttling the data?
20 GB
How about Spectrums Mobile plans any good $55 plans? They use Verizon towers?
Spectrum Mobile works just like Xfinity Mobile. It's Verizon's network and requires a Spectrum Internet account. I don't have Spectrum where I live, so I am unable to test it.
Michael Saves how good is xfinity compare Verizon plans?
@@D_Dubs00 it's good. I have separate videos in the description with more.
Michael Saves does xfinity use Verizon towers?
@@D_Dubs00 yes please see my videos. Xfinity uses Verizon's network
Hey, The second video of you testing the speed by the field around the 4:15-4:30 mark Your phone was connected to LTE not 5G which is why it was slowed down.
Hey there! I went over the high-speed data limit (20 GB) doing all of these speed tests, so that is why it went to LTE (I'm assuming) from the exact same spot. My phone was set to automatically connect to 5G where available.
yeah it’s just odd to me that xfinity had the ability to force the phone off 5G and onto the LTE network. I use xfinity mobile now and when hitting 20gb I’m still on 5G they just slow the bandwidth down.
@@nb7340 ahh interesting. Well that whole area is 5G according to the map and previous testing so I have no other idea why it switched to LTE
I watch a lot of CZcams on the go, I’ve heard that with the xfinity mobile after 20g they only allow you to watch videos at 480p
details here www.xfinity.com/mobile/support/article/hd-pass
@@MichaelSaves thank you looks like you will need to pay 65 a month to have the best streaming options guaranteed
I saw on the xfinity mobile unlimited plan it says 480p video streaming what does that mean? Does it mean i can only watch videos in 480p like youtube and other streaming services or does it only mean for xfinity stream app?
It means everything, but there's an HD pass (additional fee) or you can connect to Wi-Fi for HD streaming
@@MichaelSaves what about that 20gb cap? Does it really slow you down to 1.5mb speed??
@@efrainSRT slows you but not that slow from my experience
@@MichaelSaves oh ok appreciate the help!
Just use a vpn
The reason why u didn't get the same results back in the same place is because with Verizon and att they started with mmwave. Since mmwave can only be access right now close to the tower and can't be access if something is blocking the signal and if u are in a house. what tmobile did was start from the bottom and working its way up to mmwave That's why tmobile has the speeds it does and that's the reason tmobile 5g works in doors and out
You are correct about the way the carriers are handling 5G differently, but I still don’t think the speeds should have been different in the same outdoor location. The only variables that changed: one hour passed and I used 30GB data doing speed tests in between.
If u outside u will get those speeds. But inside Verizon 5g is nonexistent. Also the reason why u got a different result the second time u back to that spot is because u wasn't behind a tree at first. Since Verizon and att 5g can't Penetrate though objects their 5g changes
Hmm. Ok I thought I was in the same spot
@@MichaelSaves yea it was the same area but different spot. Right now T-mobile 5g is the only carrier that can penetrate though objects
Too many takeaways imo.
How much they pay you to make that video ? This company it’s scam
You don't have to like them, but it's not a scam. Unlike many others in this space, I do not accept any sponsorships. I pay for all of the services and devices that I test.
