We put Visible and Verizon's 5G networks to the test in New York City! See which carrier offers faster speeds for YouTube, web browsing, and large file downloads. Is Visible's budget-friendly plan as good as the premium option?
Transcript
00:00I've been on Visible for over three years now
00:02and I recently switched to Verizon.
00:04So the question is, why pay more?
00:06Well, it ultimately comes down to ultra wideband.
00:10Speed, all about speed.
00:11I'm going to show you how they perform
00:13across three different places here in New York.
00:15First up, we have YouTube video playback.
00:17Now on basic 5G on Visible,
00:19there's a brief delay when you buffer up videos,
00:22but with Verizon ultra wideband,
00:24it instant plays the videos with barely any buffer time.
00:27Now onto Tom's guide.
00:28Visible handles it just under two seconds,
00:30but ultra wideband on Verizon makes the page load very fast,
00:33almost instantaneous.
00:35Now here for my final test,
00:36it's the ultimate stress test,
00:38downloading a massive 50 megabyte file on both 5G on Visible
00:42and ultra wideband on Verizon.
00:45Visible finished pretty fast,
00:46but Verizon's ultra wideband did in half the time.
00:49So I've been saving a ton of money going with Visible,
00:52but if you want the utmost best and fastest speed,
00:55you're paying for that premium with ultra wideband on Verizon.
00:57So which one would you choose?
00:59Let me know in the comments.
