New video! Apple iPhone 5 4G UK EE speed test
We already know that EE is on the verge of launching the very first 4G LTE network here in the UK "in the coming weeks". It's set to revolutionise our lives – albeit, for a small fee – with super fast download and upload speeds that are 10 times faster than 3G.
Using a speed test app, we watched while the iPhone 5 achieved download speeds of up to 33.68Mbps and upload speeds of 17.04Mbps. In case you were wondering, that is fast.
Whether you'll achieve the same mind-blowing results in the real world remains to be seen, as there will be many factors that will have an affect on its speed – just like 3G – such as location and the number of users online. Of course, this is just a snapshot of what 4G is capable of. Seeing really is believing, so check out our iPhone 5 4G EE speed test video and prepare to be dazzled.
Want to get involved in the 4G action? EE's trio of 4G-equipped smarties – including the Samsung Galaxy S3 will be on hand to help. Samsung's Galaxy Note 2 also plans on joint the 4G fun times on 15 October.

Although not as good but still impressive, I managed to get speeds in excess of 14Mbps on 3 network on my Iphone 5 last weekend with photo to prove it. Did manage to get almost 19Mbps although without a photo.
Incredibly fast for 3G, maybe some of the other networks are already working on improving the network with out telling us?

Maybe you should point out that the iPhone5 is unlikely to work on O2 and Vodafone 4G networks as it does not support their likely 4G spectrum.
So only on EE (and possibly 3 network).
I wonder if all the buyers to date were told before they handed their money over?
