irev210 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Impressive that the EVO has no problem hitting over 90mbit over wifi... not many phones can do that. Over at anandtech, they show the EVO and the One X hitting over 100mbit. While not really that functional, or practical, I suppose if you did a lot of local music syncing over wifi it would be rather fast. Note that I am connected to 5GHz wifi with 40MHz channel width configured. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digiblur Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Interesting on the 40mhz. I know other mobile devices would only handshake at 65 or 72 using only 1x1 20mhz 802.11n. Most would handshake at 65 due to the guard interval used. I haven't checked on the EVO if it will actually use a 40mhz 2.4ghz channel. What handshake rates are you seeing on 5ghz?

The hardware/software does not support 802.11n 40 MHz channels at 2.4 GHz, only 5 GHz. Maximum supported MCS index is 7 (150 Mbps in 40 MHz, 72 Mbps in 20 MHz).

Pretty clean connection! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Newhart Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 While not really that functional, or practical, I suppose if you did a lot of local music syncing over wifi it would be rather fast. Very practical, the less time Tx/Rx the longer the battery life, faster responses too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Higher order modulation and wider bandwidth for faster data throughput (hence shorter Tx/Rx time) often require greater power. AJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to max out around 115mbit in anandtech testing 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
