 the network gave me a great speed indoors in Greek Town. I hope it helps people who are wondering network speeds of different places in Toronto or Canada in general. ✌️ ❤️

Speaking about that, well sometimes it happens is when too many people are using network in a particular place, it might slow down a little bit especially if there is a demand of a particular website.

For example as you mentioned, about deals on the website, during which the website was almost down for almost a day so many people could not use it, but the company was working on it so that it comes back as soon as possible but other websites were working just fine, so it depends on the website and even with 5G, many would have noticed this, if you get even one bar of reception, there are still many websites which you can easily load even if the website takes a lot of data, so I guess 5G has an edge over 4G in the scenario!

Absolutely agree, still great networks speeds within some buildings. Next thing I'm trying to figure out, is slower connection on the other end... Say you're on the PM site here, and it's taking a while to load between posts. I'm looking at my phone wondering, is my signal low, or is it that the site is a bit flogged down with more users and requests than usual (really present when say, blank Friday sale, boxing day sales going on). 

First world problems there...

Hey
I live in Vancouver, BC 
The speed in Downtown is around 270 Mbps. The speed in my residence area goes around 170+ Mbps, which is more than enough, and I find the speed is kinda consistent. Network-wise, 5G has a better network than 4G. I like 5G and with HD+ calling, things are going towards a better way, than before!

I was happy to take advantage of their latest 5g offer myself, I was with PM about 2 years back on a 4g plan, and was very happy, I made the switch just to take advantage of a new phone-tab option on Koodo... Same service, no change in anything really, but more costly each month with a bit better plan than I had, and a new phone.

 

Different customers will still find low signal spots, especially in buildings at times. I have a few spots at work where the network is slower, and so far, it's maybe a touch faster with access to 5g, but bouncing between 4g/lte as well. It's an upgrade for sure.
