Everyone,
Just wanted a bit of perspective out there. Which option drains the battery more, using 3g only or 4g? I've ran across this argument more then I would expect. Many people or reps are saying using 4g puts less strain on your battery because due the increase speed, pages n application renders much quicker causing the phone to load items must lesser which in effect put less strain on the device and ultimately on the battery. 3g being a much slower speed does make the device render pages, etc much longer and application like facebook, email, and web browsing can be a drag. I've tested both options and indeed I do see a slight boost in battery performance with the use of 4g. But I maybe I'm swayed by all the theories I've heard. Ultimately, if I can save battery life, 3g isn't all that bad. But if 4g is a better option, who will complain.
