Anyone tested their 4G SPEEDS on the S3?

Just curious what you're getting for your download speed on 4G. I live in the small town of LaGrange, GA (hour south of Atlanta)....but big red was gracious enough to give us LTE. Anyone ran a speed test? And, what area are you in?

First test: 16.5mbps down and 11.9mbps up. Austin, Texas

I have been getting 16-19 mbps down and 11-19 up. In fact my friends Verizon Nexus pulled 15 mbps down at the same time I was pulling 19 mbps.

Wow! That's gonna be a HUGE jump from the crappy 3G service I've been getting on the "so called" 3G network here & in Columbus, GA @ 0.34Mbps down / 0.07Mbps up! The speed has been like this for weeks now, something is obviously broke...

Mimsieboy: This is pretty slow...especially for 4G. And you look to have a decent signal. :-\

Why does speedtest keep picking a server in Kansas as the closest server to me over 3G? I live in NY.

I got a better score last night on my Fascinate on 3G.

lol no WAY!

haha yes way. I actually got 19.9 up in another test

26Mbps down, 18Mbps up at home last night.


The interesting thing, however, is that at work in Las Colinas (Irving, TX) about half a mile from a huge Verizon corporate office I am consistently getting 4Mbps down and 0.5Mbps up. I do not think it is VZW but still, you'd think they would make it a priority to have good service near offices that house thousands of people who undoubtedly use VZW..

I was getting 39-42mbps down and 16mpbs up peak in Baltimore. Averages were closer to 20mpbs down 10mbps up though.

Incredible though.

I get 18-20 mbs down but only about 1.7 up. But even with slower upload speed, the download speed is 10X my DSL wifi.

 

[rough1200]

18 to 20 mbs down and 10 mbs up in Bmore Maryland.

You can change the server....go to "tools" then click on "change server".

42mbps is good, but I have seen over 60mbps on my rezound before. Hopefully I can see the same on the s3.
