I have a iphone 11 ( not 5G compatible) with a plan where i chose speed boost as a perk(ie. 4G speed with speed boost). Will the speed be better with this plan versus changing to a 5G plan ( no speed boost option)where I only can get the compatible 4G speed( due to my phone)? I think it is better to stay with current plan but wanted to make sure I understood the speed options.

You would be speed capped to 200mbps with the speed boost on the 4G plan. 5G is capped at 250mbps, so you wouldn’t notice much difference. But I don’t see the speed boost as an option anymore. I guess it stays with you so long as you keep it. You certainly couldn’t take advantage of 5G without a compatible phone. So you could wait and see if black friday deals coming up match or beat what you have now. Otherwise, if you’re happy, you can just stay with what you’ve got.
