does 3 g suck?

About ready to throw this phone in the garbage, should I be able to watch videos with 3g or no? Thought most phones were 3g.

Do you pay for the 3g? if not then you won't get the full capability of it...

I watch video's on 3g all day long lol, but ya most phones are 4g anymore.

While most new phones are 4g, its a bit of a fraud in that there is not very much coverage for it. As to 3g, you can watch videos, but from my experience in England, unless you're in a city, its a piece of shit.

What ya mean pay for it? It is unlimited text talk web for 45$ month.

That's what i ment if you are on contract. In the UK we have a pay as you go service, not sure about the US i imagine you have it... on my pay as you go sim i get 3g, somehow but can't use it to full potential.

You can purchase a phone and prepay from any provider... Without credit check, etc. For safe throw-aways, 3g tech is a bit too new. It'll mean the phone is gps enabled.

Man 3G doesn't suck that bad, but it feels like it doesn't even work sometimes now that I'm used to 4G D:

I disabled GPS...they sell these phones in Walmart for for a hundo ...

this is a huge point!Q!!!!!!!

i hate all this fucken bull shit, 4g, lte, across the world blahblahhhh..

you know, it sucks when your sick ass iphone cant even make a phone call..


they need to worry about getting more peoplpe covered correctly, they are good at selling lies though..

go with 3g!

i work in the wireless industry, and all this bull shit about 20mb/s + download on a phone is so much bull shit, if you dont have the 4g coverage,, ( like most of my county) then its all a waste... and irritating...

Corso I know your from mi 4g is few and far between in Michigan? 3G can be choppy to clear depending on where you are when it comes to videos

Thanks... not going to waste $ on new phone.
