5G testing in my area?

[Frazzlbiker]

The nearest 5G is 13 miles away from me 

But the past few weeks only on week days 5G comes on my phone for a few seconds 

Last time it stayed on long enough for me to take a screenshot 

Does this mean it's being tested in my area or is it something or nothing? 

Thank you

Signal is affected by various conditions, maybe it's a clear 5G signal day 😂

A more serious response is; check with your network website - they usually show coverage maps of 2,3,4 and 5g

It's been clear blue skies here may be that's why
But after I'd posted i did say to myself i could check with my mobile provider just call it one of those silly moments 😆
Sorry about that & thanks for your reply i appreciate it 👍

No problem, that's what this forum is for

The icon you're getting is the ULI (upper layer indicator) icon it basically means the site you're connected to has 5G but you're not receiving it so the speeds you're getting is still LTE speeds the true 5G connected icon is the one in my screen shot
