Is LTE classed as 4G or something else?

I got my new EE sim card today for my iPhone 5 and i was getting 3G but while i'm at work its saying LTE near my network symbol is that 4G or is it something else? I'm confused don't really understand it…

LTE (long term evolution) is 4G although in the UK the coverage is still pretty low.

Yes, LTE is 4G.

lots of places here in the US say they have "4G LTE"

a few years ago 4G was a thing, but it was basically 3G+ beause it was just fast 3G and not up to the speeds of true 4G.

Yes, LTE is classed as 4G but on the iPhone 5 it will show as LTE. Only on AT&T's (US carrier) HSPA network will it say 4G.

Yes but LTE is faster than 4G think of it as 4.5G

  • Would you say I'm poor, middle or upper classed? My parents have a combined income of around 120, 000 pounds. I live in a 430, 000 pounds house. I have a IPhone 5 a nice house lots of nice things 3 cars. But yet the people at Queen elizabeths Grammar school are calling me poor with their new Iphone 5s's and their billions of designer clothes and laptops. I understand that I have my parents to thank for all of this, as do the rest. But why do the people of that school taunt me so?
  • What is an app where I can put my face on something else? I have an iPhone 4, and I want to put my face on a Teletubbies' body (don't judge it's for practical purposes). What would be a free app where I can do that?
  • Should I buy a new iPhone or save my money for something else? I'm 14 and have enough money to buy an iPhone 7 Plus. I've always wanted a bigger phone with a better camera. My only concern is that once I have bought the phone I won't have any money left over. My current iPhone 6 still works fine. If I don't buy the new phone I'll probably buy a bunch of clothes and shoes.
  • My songs won't download to my iphone. Storage problem or something else? So I transferred about 48 songs into my itunes library and now they won't sync onto my phone. I have a 16GB iphone 5 that has 13.29GB of storage currently being used with 1.45GB free. I just want to either confirm that it's simply an issue with not having enough storage or if there's something else that could potentially be wrong- I've tried deleting other things off my phone (apps, other songs, messages, etc) but the songs still won't sync.
