Higher the bandwidth,shorter the distance always. It affects fiber the least (Speed of light) but it’s still there.

Does this mean you are still sticking with your false post that there are no 5G networks?

Do you mean frequency?

COAX signals travel 30% faster than fiberoptic signals!

Always? This fiber optics chart says otherwise!

What chart? Are you an engineer? I worked on this crap for 40 yrs and I’m getting this deja vu like I’m talking to one.

Good strategy?

Yes. The Air is great - and I’m keeping my iPhone X for at least another year. I don’t find the iPhone 12 compelling enough - maybe the 13 will be.

Thanks, Mr. Jeeves.

After the great advice from Swordmaker and Sheana on this thread, I too am keeping my iPhone X and have just ordered a 4th Generation Air, picking it up at 2:15PM on the 23rd.

Thanks for the affirmation and good luck with yours.
