    Here's my personal best, as well as the maximum speed I was able to get over 5gbps USB tethering.

    Millimeter wave is definitely a lot of fun, and I wish AT&T and T-Mobile would deploy a lot more of it.

    What device is that on?

  2. As far as I know Samsung will allow screen cast / miracast without Wi-Fi. You can also try a USBc to hdmi adapter. Last I heard is google blocks this wireless casting in favor to get people to use their chrome cast.

    S20 Ultra. 

    I have a iPhone 12 Pro Max. I tested this phone against a unlocked s21 ultra and the iPhone held signal while the Samsung didn’t. Only device that’s better that I’ve tested reception wise is my trusty old s6 active from att. That phone gets signal in places that the coverage map claims no service. The iPhone 12 Pro Max is about 3-5 dbm worse then the s6 active. That device is also rubber and plastic, no glass. Also 2x2 antennas vs iPhone at 4x4.

    I've taken the plunge, I decided to upgrade. I'm taking a break from Samsung for a bit, S21 is a disaster of a phone and their general practices are questionable lately. Going back to my roots of Apple, 12 Pro Max to be specific. I'll definitely give Samsung a look again in the future, it's been a fun ride I've used Samsung exclusively since the S3. They need to win me back.

    Which one gets better reception in weak areas?

    I was able to get this installed now on my 12 Pro with the iOS 14.3 jailbreak.  A fun part is that I was able to then install a tweak called CarPlayEnable and now I can have CellularInfo showing up on my car's entertainment system to check out new LTE bands.

    Still wish I knew enough to work on getting the actual signal levels to display, but I was able to get another tweak called SignaldBm installed to replace the signal bars with the RSRP level in the status bar, so that works for now.

    What all info does this app display vs the buggy field test 

  6. When I was testing a factory unlocked s20 ultra 5g against my 11 pro and s6 active on att on edge of cell signal in a state forest in Pennsylvania the iPhone did better then the s20. I’m back on sprint again due to better coverage thanks to shentel. My iPhone has been able to place a call up to -126dbm. As far as the s6 active goes, it’s by far the best phone for reception I’ve ever owned. It’s held onto a useable signal where att coverage map says no service. I just ordered the new Se from apple and will test that out. It has much better antenna gain over the last few generations of the iPhone.

  7. So the pro held onto band26 longer then the Xs and the s10+. Also it held onto 1x 800 longer then both of those devices. It pretty much matched the iPhone 7 Plus I had years ago holding onto 1x. I never had the 8 plus to compare too

  8. So after waiting 2 hrs in line at the apple store I finally have a 11 pro. I can tell you the reception is alittle better then last years iPhones. It is a lot better then the unlocked s10 plus I was using which anything above -112 was useless.

    No, but from what I've read online, it appears that the Antennas do have somewhat better performance than the XS & XS Max.

    I'm on SWAC, so I can't upgrade there. Oh well.

    Where did you read this?

  10. I'm just hoping that they designed the antennas better then last years. I had the xs and it wasn't bad, I have a s10 plus now and its horrible with anything above -114. I read awhile back that samsung did change there supplier for antennas starting with the s10. I've also read that the new iPhones are using a different material for there antennas this year. Hopefully wavelength does a breakdown soon.

    Yes, I have been finding this 10Mhz channel at quite a few sites.  Been there for a month or so at least.  Last time I looked at it, the 3rd carrier was not aggregated with the first two.  Not sure if that is still true.

    Per the engineering screens on my xs, the primary carrier is the 10mhz with two 20mhz carriers.
