📡 Today I will be answering a lot of overdue questions: Is 5G faster than 4G?
We hear a lot about 5G being the “future” of the internet. Some have said it’ll transform entire industries, others, it was designed to “weaken our immune systems.” Conspiracy theories aside, I really want to put 5G through its paces, and perform the ultimate 5G vs. 4G speed test.

📡 5G vs 4G difference explained | Are the downfalls worth it? 📡
📶 The thing about 5G is that you need to be in direct view of a 5G cell tower to get reliable and fast speeds, if not this can affect the results. That’s why finding a prime location is always a priority. Our 5G vs 4G vs 3G speed tests concluded: the primary difference between these is the speed. The introduction of more bits-per-second being able to travel the network explains why 5G is faster in most cases. But we aren’t without issues here. I’m sure you’re no stranger to how long it took for 4G to spread across this planet.
📶 The country I’m currently in only has 5G in the bigger cities, if I go camping or out of town for a while I’d have tough luck finding a 5G connection. As I said, you’ve got to be in direct view of a 5G cell tower. 5G towers have a small range and can’t penetrate large buildings very well. The proper implementation just isn’t there yet and some people might find their phone switching in and out of 5G and 4G for those very reasons.
📶 Then there’s the elephant in the room - 5G security concerns. An increase in the so-called IoT devices - great for manufacturers, not so great for consumers. Cybersecurity is not often considered whilst making these low-end products. Leaving prime opportunity for ransomware attackers to gain access.

The most important difference is with 5G you get a whole extra G.
The pronunciation of PUBG 🤣
Pube g, what a boomer xd
🤣🤣
I guess he is actually "right" but yeah what q boomer lol
@@StirsMYCookiez Maybe a boomer but still makes sh*t more money than all you losers, 😂
😂
Dude, you have the perfect commercial voice
Thanks! :D
5G sucks if your not close feels slower than 4g kinda hate it
I have 5g i load in games 30 seconds faster than 4g
We do have 5G capable phones and 5G towers for the dedicated network just for it, but we don't necessarily have the services that will provide that much Mb/s for users. We have the infrastructure for it but we don't have the services for it, an analogy would be like riding a skateboard on the Nascar race track.
(Posted through 3G network just for this video)
Verizon was willing to pay my co op to have a cellphone tower on our building but our co op voted it down. We could have had better cell service plus lower maintenance. Too many people fall for the conspiracy theory's. The funny thing is, the co-op next door soon had a cell phone tower on it.
Nice video thanks! If you're moving house & want to use wireless 4G/5G instead of fiber & unsure of which provider to use I suggest checking out the coverage maps and then buying a phone sim card for the most promising looking provider. Then buy some data for that phone & run some speed tests at your new house. This will give you a very good idea on how 4G wireless is going to work for you. I'm a big fan of 4G because of all the frustrations of using copper phone lines and ADSL. Fiber is subject to damage & dodgy installations just like the old copper wires.
Nice effort but why no one is actually able to really inform us correctly on the 5g vs 4g performance?
2 speedtests is ridicule man... A real test would be at least 10, and from very different locations, and from inside buildings.
Also, 5G doesn't have to use ultrafast waves, it can also, and will in 90% of areas, use regular waves lengths. We want to know how speeds are improved in that situations. Theory says it should improved latency and speed by around 20%, and also support much more devices connected to the tower at the same times. But I've never found a proper test online yet :(
Hi, thanks for your suggestion! We'll hopefully do more tests in the future and take this into consideration.
5G is great, however, I am using a Lenovo x250, that's currently downloading at 100 Mbps and uploading of 30. Not bad at all.
The Lenovo has a modem built-in and doesn't need a hotspot.
If you live in the united States, you don't see much a difference, however, if you live in China, you could see the big differences.
Why not a single indoor test? Like usually people do eventually go indoors and wait for it - still use the phone
You didn't use the sames phone for both test. it could probably influence some result, right ?
Test at Home/indoors, dont wanna live on the streets like stray animals.
Subbed for epic intro.
Still can’t see why you’d need it other than to download games or series and I usually do that in the house anyway
Wow... 5G speeds are really impressive, Surely by 2022, It will have wide coverage...
Also, Love to see Starlink Internet Speed Test from Micheal 🌟
Yeah, I really hope so, I mean it's already been in the works for almost a decade. :D Thanks for your comment!
I was considering Starlink in my rural area but then Tmobile 5G home internet came to town a few months ago and it was a no-brainer, and it's great at $50/month flat fee, no price increases. (See my other comment about it here.) However, Starlink is a good option for rural users with no other choice, or really slow speed choices, and I've watched dozens of videos on it. The downsides are that it requires installing the dish with wiring outside your house, keeping the snow off it, getting no service in heavy rain, the continuous power draw of 100 watts, the $99/month fee, and the $499 equipment fee.
So that makes T mobile, where they give you the gateway (modem/router the size of a coffee can) to use while you pay for the service, and works well in harsh weather, doesn't require any maintenance or worry that it might get damaged because it isn't outdoors. That said, you can determine whether it's available in your area by going to their website, and even if it is, there can be a lot of speed variability depending on how close your house is to the tower, number of obstructions, and sometimes other factors such that you don't know what you're going to get until you try it.
Some people are a mile from the tower and can't get any speed to even remain connected. The speeds can fluctuate a lot or not so much, depending on your location. Most people get average speeds of between 30 and 200 on it, and maybe one-third get over 200 all the way to about 700 for people near a tower with the mid-frequency equipment on it. My former DSL upload speed was 1Mbps. I now get anything from 10 to 70 for upload speed with Tmobile home internet.
I’m considering waiting until next year to get a 5G phone but not really sure
Doubt it, 5g wave length has a small radius.
how disappointed are you in 2023?
I was forced into getting a new phone because AT&T (and others) were ending 3G (my phone was a Galaxy S8+ with 2G/3G LTE). So now I have a Galaxy S21 that is 5G capable. However I really see no speed difference than with my old phone. The current speed just now is 7.4 Mbps download - 1.2 Mbps upload. Earlier, it was 15.8 Mbps download - 3.3 Mbps upload. As far as I am concerned, the 5G hype is definitely over-rated.
my experience as well
just as 4g at the beginning. or basically any new technology
4g is faster than 5g tbh
They suckered you in on that lol your Galaxy S8 was fully compatible with AT&Ts HD Voice / VoLte network
@@turtle_mike lol 4G max is 150 mbps 5G max is 5 gbps. so i dont know in what world 4G is faster than 5G
Very good explanation
1:09 says the latest OnePlus, shows the spec sheet of OnePlus 8 which was released a year prior while holding a OnePlus Nord 🤦♂
In short, kinda worth it. But you'll need to have 5G tower in your region and you'll have to stand close to it or else it'll become slow.
4g 2h2min video downloaded in 1min42seconds vs 5g 13min video downloaded in 50 seconds 🤔. Not a equal test and makes 5g seem slow. 50 seconds+50 seconds= around 1:40. So would it taken 5g 1:40 to download a 26 min which would make it slower than 4g. Need a retest with the same 13 min video on 4g and 2h2min video on 5g.
Thanks for the suggestion, we'll keep this in mind for future tests. :)
Thank you
Yeah and the ping is not even any different.We were promised 5 ping.
This is the deal breaker!
I still don't see the true benefits of 5G implementation for the average Phone Holder. What's 30s extra to download ？😕？I could take a couple looks outside of my phone, which would be healthier. All I see is, storage sizes and unnecessary advances, taking up more space will inevitably force us to use 5G.
Don't compare mmwave 5G against non Gigabit class 4G LTE
Is 4G LTE Good?
Alot of people dont realize is you ate squeezed by the sending paket upload capabilities. Good to have the HP when allowed ofcourse but more buisness needs to focus more on their upload capabilities
5g has yet to be a "SA" network and not many people know the 5g being used still uses 4g LTE platform
We already know 5g is faster than 4g .... what would be the point if it was slower .... things is that i dont really need my phone to download faster lol .... but IOT require 5g , and there is so many sensors everywhere, you dont even think about. .... in the end you wont really need phone, 5g and all the sensors will replace your phone. Its like having your phone on 24/24. .... be connected all the time, enjoy
interesting, for my provider in Malta, 5g is much slower than 4g.
So many ancient buildings in your city
4g can give good downloads above 100 mbps thru CA. Most 4g phones do not CA. Testing with routers will give good comparison
yes 4G download speed maxes out at 150 mbps
I dont know how much faster can 5g internet can get, my 4g internet already seems fast, everything i click loads right away.
2 hour movie vs a 13 min clip that was a terrible comparison unless he did it on purpose
Dude has to be paid. Such a stupid test. 5g 4g it don't matter none of those services are going to upload at 100mb/s to this dude.
5g line of sight... hmmm. Why? I get fast speeds with 4g even when in the house. Why I gotta be outside to get 5g? 😂😂😂
You downloaded 13 min video on 5g and downloaded a 2 hour movie on 4g should do the same movie for a accurate comparison
Thanks for the feedback, we'll take this into consideration in our next videos.
Testing with high end phones that most people don’t have is of. I use. Not everyone downloads games everyday. Watch a video, streaming is more important for speed .
Thanks for the input!
My country currently only have 1 telco that offers 5g and even then only chinese android phone supports it. Samsung and iphone even 5g models cant access the 5g network.
So switch to that Telco and use some great phones from Oppo, Vivo, OnePlus, Xiaomi or Huawei. What is the problem?
@@someonesomewhere9133 only android i'll use is samsung but no android phones will have the same resale value of an iphone 2-3 years later so no.
bro is the oppo f5 support 5g
what about comparing RF radiation between the two speeds?
i got less then 4g with 5g how, cus i was living in a quite big town
4G is still faster than 5G for me I had a few 5G phones and 4G is still a lot faster they said they are I actually keeping 4G around for another decade when 5G is developed they can change it to 5G LTE
Facts
4g samsung s10 is an LTE category 20 device capable of speeds upto 2000Mbps thats double your 5g speed test. so why do we need new devices? why we not getting more on 4g? they cap the speeds i think.
I can't pick his accent. It's sounds American to me
Does anyone know which 4g phone is the fastest?
50's radio announcer does 5G
I was shocked when I did a speed test at work and found that the 4g was 1.4gbps and the work wifi was 200 …. Like what! How does that even make sense
You make no sense. 1.4 is not possible with 4g on a phone..
@@SOSULLI I meant 5g sorry dude
2 years later, where is that 6G? never heard of it till today but aparently I'm to late :DDD
VS abbreviated versus, not verse.
5g still has to be worked on its slow as hell in a lot of places 4g litetally fast af everywhere i go plus 5g drains my battery faster
How much did they pay you?
What about the health concerns all most ppl care is faster internet but when they wake up it'll be too late
I turn 5g off all the time because it's slower and constantly loses signal xD
2:35 - So cringe. Lol.
@ 4:52
5g is power hungry , its like 3g but just more speed
who even uses mobile data to download apps and shows
100 Mbps on 4G? 😳, In India you can get only 10 Mbps on 4G if you are lucky.
😆 True.
Yeah, we were shocked too, I wish it was always like that. :D
Mine is 181 Mbps on 4G in The Netherlands, and 40 Mbps Upload😅
I get 400 mbps on 4g lte and 110-170 up
Plenty of places in India have fast 4g where you can get over 100Mbps.
Although I'm not in visual range of a 5g tower, Im finding that with video downloads in Sydney with Vodafone, on 5G, with my latest 5G Samsung phone, 4G is either the same or faster than 5G. On top of that, when in 5G mode, my phone heats up to the extreme, and my 500 ma battery gets chewed. I am not that impressed. Web pages may spring up a tad quicker, but that's all. I personally think the issue is that the phone has to connect to multiple towers on 5g, causing way more power usage from my device and making it heat up and because perhaps it has too constantly be connected to multiple towers, which inhibits the signal and thus the download speed. I cant say that I'm happy with 5g. Infact, When my mobile plan is due to be updated in 3 months, Im Probably going to save a few dollars and go back to a 4 g plan..... If for nothing else the battery consumption. And I don't like my phone heating up so much. Ive got a snapdragon processor in my Samsung also. I am not the only one finding this issue with phone heating up and battery drainage...... I am not happy with 5G.
It didnt seem faster to me at all
My 5g phone and 4g phone seem to be the same fast there's no big difference smh
5g eats more battery then lte
Where can I get a 6G phone?
lol there is no 6G phones.
Government/Secret Laboratories, but it still burns holes in your skin when the frequencies penetrate you. Work in progress...
Government Portals but you have to fight afrobull futa before you can get it
No lte?
Lte is 4g but a bit more slower
@@qzuq Both are two different names for the same thing.
i can get up to 260Mb just with 4G
5G is pointless for 99.999% of consumers.
5G need more development at least 5/10 more years.. why the rush?
Exactly our point, maybe it's a competitive thing?! :D
July 2016 5g was announced. Still 6 years and they can't get it right. It interferes with airplanes.
@@PSUNATION fuck airplanes
@@kurtify3813 Take it you have never been on one!
Bin enttäuscht keine T-Mobile
4G LTE is way faster than 5G.
Seriously ? Do u have any source , i need to read it.
Yeah let’s have 5 seconds faster speeds and fry our brains in the meantime. Seems like a great trade off to me.
Haha, people had similar worries about 4G, 3G, 2G, and so on, but thankfully, those didn't fry our brains either. Technology keeps moving forward, and while we can't stop the "G" train, it's always good to stay informed and use devices responsibly!
Not as big as a leap as previous generations- 4g was 500x faster than 3g iirc- as opposed to 3x~ faster 5g speed shown in the video. Still a long way to go but there’s potential in the future.
4G was much more significant upgrade. I have a 5G phone but I personally think that 5G is a meh upgrade.
Lietuvoj intikas visad buvo geras
My 4G goes 5mbs
Bruh the 5G stuff placed all over the top of that classic looking building looks dumb as hell haha.
Europe do be having those kinds of buildings everywhere lol
Pyoupeg🤦🏽🤦🏽
"Epic game, Pee You Bee Gee"
Damn ugly repeaters on the beautiful old buildings🤨
NAHH BRO COMPARING ANDROID VS IPHONE
it’s internet speed, phone operating system doesn’t affect that
I see no difference even if you are working underground or in some shopping Malls or on top of the Network tower......
It still stucks and annoying ..
They keep fooling us ..
Not to mention the health hazards it causes 😭😢😥
We don't want 5 g towers!!!
If your phone only has 4G, will it still work in an area that only has 5G?
Of course! There will be no area that will only have 5G, as all of those areas are covered with 4G already
