More than likely, yes.

Why don't you both do a speedtest and compare results? The FCC mobile broadband speed test app is one. Speedtest.net has an app as well.

Those are pretty comparable.

I'd say you're getting the H+ speeds with your 4S.

That's about what I'm getting with my 4S and it's 25 to 50 per cent faster than my iPhone 4 was.......

yea i noticed 4s is faster than my 4 as well.. people are bragging about how 4s is "inferior" or.. the SGS2 is better etc..

actually, 3414 kbps converts to 3.33 mbps instead of 3.41, and 808 kbps converts to 0.79 mbps (not 0.81 kbps).

woo hoo happy grin

Are the AT&T phones still getting the "4G" indicator in a future software update? AT&T speeds blow away Sprint and Verizon. I saw a video of Verizon getting like .9 mbps and a Sprint user told me he averages 1 mbps. I average about 4.5-5 mbps on AT&T.

 

[Applejuiced]

You're using H+ also, just the iphone 4S doesnt have an indicator for it.
There was talks that AT&T was trying to add it with a future firmware or carrier update but not sure if or when its going to happen.
