Forgive me for the small sample size, but I'd gladly appreciate some more data. I have access to 3 Galaxy Nexus models and the one Moto X. By the end of the night I should have an iP5 sample.
My suspicion is telling me something is off on my LTE ping. The 3 GNexes all ping 50-80ms under identical network conditions on my home tower and the Moto X is seldom under 100 (same SIM, same APN, same spot in the house, all within an hour). Obviously you all will have different results since you're testing different towers on different servers, etc. Band 4 with a TMo SIM was pinging pretty low under different network conditions, but this is my only band 4 capable device so I have nothing else to test against.
The lower latency isn't a deal-breaker by any means, but if there's something I can do to fix it, I'd like to. But before beginning I wanted to see if it's more symptomatic of hardware difference in antennas. Since I only have two different makes/models so far, I was hoping one of you lovely folk would be bored enough to test. The tower I've been testing from is band 13, not 4. The Moto X is consistently reporting stronger signal across the board, which is hardly surprising given the difference in hardware age/obsolescence. The ping, however, worries me.
So, any input?
