Pixel LTE speedtest?

[EnemiesInTheEnd]

Project Fi phones are throttled on carrier towers they use.

So they don't get the full T-Mobile or Sprint speeds?

Of course. And I doubt we notice any difference from 100mbs to 200 when browsing.

Correct. It doesn't use that amount of speed to browse the web and such. Even streaming video only takes up so much of that bandwidth. Such as at home I have a 1 Gbps connection (1,000 Mbps up/down) but it never uses it fully unless downloading a game download or something.

Not that I am aware of, per a YouTube review of LTE speed on a major t mobile market. 8-9Mbps and that was 50% of what his iPhone was pulling when he ran both phone tests using Speed test simultaneously.

Best result I've had on Bell is 73 down, 35 up. Varies based on where I am/what tower I'm connected to.

Thanks. That looks good. I can only dream of that kind of speed.

T-Mobile on the way to work today.

Two more while on lunch. Tried two different speed test servers to see if speed stayed consistent.

I thought I read somewhere that the chipset allowed it to have some hardware photo processing added to help speed up even HDR shots. I wasn't sure if that was a difference between the 810 to the 821 or the 820 to the 821 though.

Tried it while on a VoLTE call to see. Works well still .
