    I did three speed tests. This is the middle speed result. Not the average but the median result.

    I did 3 with the same app and this was the middle of the road. But even the low one, was less than 1-2 mb of upload and download.

    Edit: That's just the 4G service. WiFi is much better.

    If I understand what that means...on mine for example .6mbs upload means that much data uploaded a second right?

    So in the case of a 2Mb pic if my device is capable of using that speed to its fullest said picture should load in 4 seconds right?

    If that was the case, then I would upload a photo I'm tenths of a second. . More to it than that.


    It took 6 seconds to upload this pic from my phone. (That's just me counting. No Stopwatch).

    You were on the right path-- it's megabits, not megabytes. You need to multiply by 8 again.
