Low latency and unlimited have more value than high Mbps

Someone needs to educate the speed queens that latency is just as and essentially more important that speed after a certain point.

A latency below 60ms at 4Mbps will help the performance of most smartphone apps/browsing more than 20Mbps at 150ms+ latency. Most smartphones don't need more than 4Mbps but the lower latency the better.

The magazine/blog sites need to start focusing on latency for overall smartphone performance, not bandwidth.

My tower was initially having problems when my area was deployed... I was getting 30mbps with a 600ms ping... it was brutal. I posted in the Verizon forums and a poster called me ungrateful.

LOL.. he must have been a Verizon fanboy. J.G. don't be bothered that guy in the Verizon forum proudly has no idea what the word latency even means.
