4G Speed – The Truth
What speed will the mobile 4G internet run at? Motorola and ZTE think they know and it’s 20Mbps.
While showcasing data modems at trade show ITU World that support download speeds of up to 100Mbps and upload speeds of 50Mbps, both companies admitted that real world internet speeds will much slower.
Actual mobile speeds will instead be more like 20Mbps for downloads and 5Mbps for data uploads. That’s not as bad as it sounds – it’s still around ten times as fast as current real world speeds experienced by most 3G mobile users around the world.
