In my experience, I have Cox Cable with cable modem and LTE on my 5s from
AT&T. I get about the same speeds on both. LTE I believe is their 4g
version. Never the less, I can download 4 hundred messages in 1 or 2
minutes give or take. I remember the days of dialup so this is blazing
fast!

Subject: Re: Curious if iPhones are totally useless if you are not on Wifi
I am betting the signal in Queens NY must be awful as the few times I have
tried to do anything when I am not on Wifi the experience has been
miserable. I did not notice how many bars I had at the time of this comedy
of errors. At least I was able to laugh it off, yes but it was quite
frustrating. Was not sure if FaceTime did work when you are not on Wifi but
the one time I needed it it did not.

Hi,
If you have a good connection, LTE or 4G should work fine. I've downloaded
music, used my phone as a hot spot, used GPS apps that needed data, and
watched a Space Shuttle lift-off. Of course, if you have a weak signal,
all bets are off with any device. Even if it's an LTE signal, if it's only
one bar, it may very well not work. But with a reasonable signal, you
should be fine. My guess is that you simply didn't have a very good signal
for some reason. Too bad, though - it sounds like a very unpleasant
experience.
Best,
Anna

Hey all,
I am curious are iPhones pretty much useless unless you are on wifi? I
had heard from some people that 4G and LED are almost as good as wifi,
but I have always noticed a lot of apps take forever to load if I am not
on wifi or crap out. I was just coming home from the store and the bag my
stuff was in ripped and I was so proud of myself as I thought I could
FaceTime with my Mom to help me find everything as I was in no man's land
with no one around. I pressed the hold button to launch Siri said call
Mom, and got what is your Mom's name? Are you kidding me, yes, before
today I have called my Mom, and she is listed on my iPhone as Mom, after
three times of Siri asking what my Mom's name was, I called her manually.
Then I asked her to FaceTime and go figure even though I clicked answer
FaceTime would not work and I was on LED. I thought FaceTime worked on
LED now? Regardless of FaceTime the fact that apps take forever to load
when not on Wifi and I am on AT&T are others having an awful experience
when not on Wifi? Eventually someone walked by and picked up my stuffs
neither my foot sweep of the area nor my guide dog found anything.
Thanks,
