4G instead of LTE

General Discussion

Afternoon all, just seeing if there is a setting I have missed on my UK ( EE ) Pixel 9 pro on 6.9 to show 4G instead of LTE on the status bar?

When I have 5G signal that shows ok

Thanks in advance

4G basically is LTE … what is the problem exactly, that it shows a weak signal?

The signal doesnt seem amazing on 4G and 5G compared to my wifes stock Galaxy S24 and daughters iphone 15 now you mention it but im on wifi most of the time ha,

It could be the sim card or a problem with the pixel 9 pro and iode?

You could swap sim cards and compare the signal strength, as a first step

You could install Tower (link below) to check cellular strength etc. on the Pixel and the Samsung and compare. I would assume there is something like this for iOS too.

Thanks ill take a look at that, I looked on the EE website and it showed signal strength in my area is fine, I live in a large city with plenty of mobile coverage, I might ask EE for a new sim card see if that helps
