Samsung S6 Edge 'lte' or '4G' symbol?

[AC Question]

Samsung S6 Edge 'lte' or '4G' symbol.

Can anyone tell me why my Samsung S6 Edge phone sometimes displays 'lte' but more often than not '4G'.
I thought they were the same thing ?

Welcome to Android Central! Which network are you on? If it's T-Mobile or AT&T, the 4G might represent HSPA+ ("pseudo-4G"), while LTE would mean true 4G LTE.
