Apologies if this has been asked before, I searched and didn’t find anything within the last couple years. Just curious to see if anyone else has a 5g capable iPhone (12 or newer) and doesn’t use 5g? Why or why not? Personally I’ve found lte to be more reliable and have had no issues on my iPhone 14 but I live in the mountains. Verizon btw. I do wonder how much longer lte will be the standard everywhere before 5g eventually replaces it completely.

    I have 5G available but just use LTE. 5G signal is usually worse, the speed difference is usually negligible (or worse), and it drains battery noticeably faster. Pretty much all downside right now, at least where I live.
