Do you use 5G or LTE? (alien.top)

Apologies if this has been asked before, I searched and didn’t find anything within the last couple years. Just curious to see if anyone else has a 5g capable iPhone (12 or newer) and doesn’t use 5g? Why or why not? Personally I’ve found lte to be more reliable and have had no issues on my iPhone 14 but I live in the mountains. Verizon btw. I do wonder how much longer lte will be the standard everywhere before 5g eventually replaces it completely.

A phone, when set to use 5G, is not restricted to 5G use. I’ve got mine set for 5G, but whenever I’m in an area without coverage, it automatically falls back to LTE without my having to do anything. Why give up on any possibility of faster speeds by restricting your phone to a slower technology?
