Anyone have Speed Test results?

altemonte — Tue, 04 Jan 2022 18:36:03 GMT

I signed up for a beta invite a few months ago, and I finally got an invite this morning. I'm thinking of switching over to Public and I'm wondering if anyone can share their speedtest.net results, or general experience with their (LTE) data speeds. I will be using an unlocked iPhone 6 if that is relevant.

I'm located in the GTA but I'd still be interest in data speeds from other regions. Many thanks!

@altemonte,

You get the same LTE speed as a client on Telus network.

My wife was using a i5s and now i6 and I did a few in the past but don't have anymore but having said that they were in the 20\30 mbs for upload and download (some better, some worse) here in Oakville and surrounding area. Always location dependent of course.

In Montreal and surrounding, I do 8MB/sec.

^You must have a NON LTE Device if those are your speeds.

@tarnyc,

8MB/sec is almost 70 Mbps per second.

That speed is not 3G 😉

I just switched to public mobile last night when I did speed test on LTE it's same as 3G infect my 3G speed was 2 mb faster then LTE: I thought public mobile didn't throttle there data. My download on LTE 13-14 mbs and on 3G it's 16 mbs

Hey just signed up today and considering what I was expecting these speeds make the switch the best decision yet.

Running these tests are not something that is reccomeneded as this single test used up more than 240MB of your data for this billing cycle.

Also, since you just joined, you should know that if you're on any plan other than the $30 1GB data-only plan, your data speeds will settle to a maximum of 3Mbps within 48 hours whenever you're connected to the LTE network.

@tob902the throttled speed will kick in only a few days after sign-up.

I do realize that it used up a fair junk of data, however, I am on wifi 90% of the time so going over my data is not something I am too worried about.

@Daps as far as speeds go to be honest again not too concerned as I am usually on WiFi and honestly for what I am now paying I am not complaining either way 😀

Everybody has a go when they first get here. Then they forget about it. Especially when they see how much data gets used.

Enjoy and welcome to Public Mobile.
