But Verizon clearly wins Dallas, with a combination of both the fastest 4G
network and some absolutely blazing 5G speeds. Verizon’s ads promise a lot of
1Gbps-plus speeds. I’ve seen those while standing on street corners at Verizon-
suggested locations in various cities. Nationwide, we had trouble duplicating
those results. But in Dallas, we hit 1.49Gbps speeds in Deep Ellum as well as
very high 5G speeds downtown.

Even without considering 5G, though, we saw high speeds above 300Mbps on

the other two carriers.

a lot of.

Denver, with AT&T and T-Mobile both peaking over 450Mbps on their LTE
networks. But Verizon wins the day with consistently fast 4G speeds across
Denver, showing that it’s important to collect a lot of data across the metro area.
