4G vs LTE

Card — Fri, 10 Feb 2023 06:28:47 GMT

Hi all I’m a newbie. I just activated my SIM card. I bought the 15 gb at 4G speed for $40 a month. On my phone it’s showing 2 bars and LTE. Is that normal? Shouldn’t it show 4G? Another dumb question. Where can I find my phone number on my cell? TIA

4G = LTE.

What make and model of phone? Is it somewhere down in settings about phone or thereabouts? Or sim information.

4G equals LTE. They're the same thing.

@Card

You seem to have found the answer you want, but just in case you need to know more,

4G is simply short for "Fourth Generation"

LTE stands for "Long-Term Evolution" It was originally just a marketing term that telecom came up with

And this is a good summary of what is 4G, what is LTE and what is 5G:

@Card

on iPhone

From a Home screen on your Apple® iPhone®, navigate: Phone app
Tap My Card to view your number.
Your number appears at the top of the screen.

Yes of-course, that would be the easiest and best method. One just googles - Where can I find my phone number on my xxxxxxx model cell? Try it it's easy. An example below --asking "Where can I find my phone number on my iPhone 7".

You can find your phone number on your iPhone 7 by following these steps:

Go to the "Settings" app on your home screen.
Tap on "General."
Tap on "About."
Scroll down until you see "Phone Number." Your phone number should be listed next to it. -

Chat GPD is wrong -- the procedure is as follows . (Robots only learn what they know from people)
(1) Settings

(2) Phone --and scroll down - and that's it
