AT&T's 5G E network has been called 'fake 5G' because, well, it isn't 5G.
8 or newer will now see a new"5G E" symbol replace the"LTE" symbol on top-right corner of their phone screen.Other carriers also have LTE Advanced Pro networks, but haven't renamed them to anything resembling 5G.Owners of the iPhone 8 or newer on AT&T will see a new"5G E" symbol on the top-right corner of their phones after updating to the latest version of iOS that rolled out Monday.
AT&T's 5G E network stands for 5G Evolution, and it's just a rebranded version of AT&T's LTE Advanced Pro network that AT&T customers were using before the iOS update. AT&T chose to rename its LTE Advanced Pro network to 5G E because LTE Advanced Pro is said to be a stepping stone towards 5G. Indeed, LTE Advanced Pro uses some of the methods and technologies that will be used when 5G fully rolls out, but true 5G operates on different frequencies. In a sentence, LTE Advanced Pro — otherwise known as 5G E — is not true 5G.
Other carriers also have their own LTE Advanced Pro networks, but they didn't rename it to anything that could suggest 5G.connect to a true 5G network. Some have been announced, but you can't buy them yet. AT&T's 5G E network also delivers about the same speeds — actually a tad slower — as Verizon and T-Mobile's 4G LTE Advanced networks, according to a report by networking research company
