Is 4G or higher any better?

I received this E-Mail this morning, which is also my birthday today:

power in your hands with 4G speed plans and a brand new My Account experience. Together with Public Points and the updated Community,

Is 4G or higher worth it?

@Angelic_Fille90 It is a personal choice

Keep in mind, all the 3G plans are still using LTE but with reduced speed.

If you never notice any speed issue and you are happy with what you got, there is no need to make change to the more expensive 4G plans

@Angelic_Fille90 The 4G plans are priced at a higher cost but yeah the data speed will be much faster. Depends if you found the 3G speeds to be limited for your usage or not if it's worthwhile to upgrade to the new plans.

It ultimately depends on your needs. But as a student who frequently uses her phone, I've found 4G plans have a much higher data speed. You can also try out the new introductory offer for the 4G plans by Public that is currently available.

If the things you download , stream on your cell make it lag then yes but I've never needed faster and see the price difference is quite substantial

I don't see much of a need to upgrade personally for basic web browsing, messaging, etc. I'd rather more throttled data than less faster data if all else was the same lol
