Fastest speed achieved on LTE on your iPhone?

Showoff!
Lol
It's just for bragging rights.
I won't really need 110mbps to check email or Facebook but good to have I guess.
Here are mine. This is the fastest I have achieved at my house. Band 13. http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/i/1607682974
Anyway, here are screenshots of other records. First screenshot is the fastest I've achieved in my town. Small town of 900, yet there is band 13 10x10 AND band 4 10x10. It is not aggregated though. This was on band 4. The test reached 62mbps and fell back down to what you can see here. The second test is in Chicago, 20x20 band 4.
Now, I have NO T-Mobile service at all where I live. Probably a good 30 mile radius right around me with no T-Mobile service. Anyway, I have done some testing in places that have T-Mobile service, and this is the best I have achieved so far. Ithaca NY. Band 4. I'm not sure what bandwidth. I am guessing 15x15 based on the upload speed. 10x10 seems to max around 10-15 up, 15x15 is usually around 20-25 up, and 20x20 is usually like 30-45 up.

Cricket is throttled at 8mbps on AT&T's network.I get 8 Mbps down and about 5 up on cricket
One of the local companies here has just enabled LTE-A aggregated over four different bands, resulting in 1.15 Gb/s in early tests
Personally, my maximum was somewhere around 50.

Holy. Crap. What carrier? What bands? What bandwidth for each?One of the local companies here has just enabled LTE-A aggregated over... four? different bands, resulting in 1.15 Gb/s in early tests

Spark NZ, bands 3, 7, 28, and unsure (40?). No idea about bandwidth.
Edit: I know that Spark has four of the nine "blocks" of band 28. I *think* that means 20 MHz in each direction but don't quote me on that!

Yes. It's been there for a while (as long as I can remember). It's actually a tribute to their cat that passed.
PS Keep dragging the speedometer down even after you think it's finished...
Those speeds are insane... My local Fibre Broadband company (Virgin Media) offer up to 200meg.... If only Vodafone did LTE-A w/CA here in Derby
You can get 300Mb on Virgin Media with Homeworks+ http://store.virginmedia.com/discover/broadband/homeworks.html
[doublepost=1462629483][/doublepost]fastest o2 result, this ones at home and at a time when no-ones on the network (unlike my EE one). it's not as fast as my EE one but still pretty good.
Lol
No, he's using tmobile Croatia, its a different carrier.
He's not from the US with T-Mobile USA roaming in Croatia.
Oh lol. I was wondering what the "T-Mobile HR LTE" meant in his screenshot, rather than it just saying "T-Mobile LTE"Lol

On T-Mobile? It may or may not be WAY slower now, T-Mobile is experiencing congestion issued in some areas with the massive influx of consumers they have been having since their recent uncarrier movements.
Yep.
T-Mobile has been the fastest pretty much everywhere I go. My school is a pretty bad deadzone. I get ~30-40mbs at school on average (though i've seen it better sometimes), whereas (last time I checked) Verizon and AT&T averaged about half that. I don't know Sprint, but I do know U.S. Cellular has NO service across campus.
Unfortunately my school is right in one of the zones where you can't have Band 12, so some buildings have awful reception. Thankfully there's Wi-Fi Calling!
