    Around 5 - 8 Mbps down during the day (10MHz of bandwidth), but I only have a 4G phone. Based on what I’ve seen, 5G should be getting me at least 100Mbps in 3.6GHz band no matter the carrier (100Mhz and 90Mhz of bandwidth).

    At night, I get 40Mbps, which is even enough for 4k60fps VP9 on YouTube. But most of this was upload, which is a stable 20Mbps all day. I guess most people don’t upload all that much.

    Theoretically, I can get 300GB, then unlimited 3Mbps at Telekom for €20.50 (limited by age), where I was able to pull 150Mbps in LTE-A (2600MHz 20+20MHz), and typically has some 35Mbps even during the day in places not covered by LTE-A, but I am too lazy to read and consider the ToS and Privacy policy.
    If you’re wondering how I was able to test that, I bought a regular prepaid SIM in Czech Republic and tested this through roaming. No ID card and face scans needed there.
