4G not being 4G was different though, because 4G had absurd speed requirements that it had to hit before it could be classified as true 4G. That’s why everyone had to use “lte”, even though they were using the 4G standard, they didn’t have fast enough service. Thankfully, 5G dropped those silly requirements, so other than AT&T’s 5Ge debacle, all of the phones saying they’re 5G are actually 5G. It is important to know that there’s different types of 5G that are good for different situations, low band 5G is great for rural areas because it has better range than 4G and high band 5G is great for cities because it has better speed than 4G, but it’s all still 5G
