There was a time when almost everyone including me thought megapixel was the calculation of how good a camera was in terms of better picture quality. That was the time when digital Cameras and phone cameras (the old Nokia days still) had starting coming out around 10-15 years ago. And it was true to an extent in those days as digital camera and phone manufacturers concentrated on quality in almost all of them. The cheap Chinese stuff had not entered the market then.
With time, every tom, dick and harry manufacturer started to produce anything like 13-20 MP cameras with shit picture quality. This was when people realized that MP is not that important but aperture, lens quality and other factors mattered a lot.
In the broadband or internet connectivity world, we had always relied on speedtest.net or any other broadband speed test to know how good the connection is. But Jio 4G seems to be breaking the myth. I am not sure how but their speedtest.net speeds are awesome all the time.
Check this speedtest.net test I did right now:
Looks great. Right? I must be getting some super fast connection with awesome speeds?
No. Definitely not. It took 3 minutes to open up the Speedtest.net website and application fully (over 1 minute to just open up the website and the Adsense ads on that page).
So, the relationship between speedtest.net result and actual browsing speeds has not matched at all in case of Jio 4G lately. I am not complaining as it is part of preview offer but this is just making me question the idea of speedtest.net results now. This has never happened in the past. In case of Jio, the real-world speeds to most websites are completely different from the speedtest.net or Netveolocity speeds. Even my 1Mbps BSNL connection (which I kept as a backup after purchasing LYF/Jio) gives far better real world speeds compared to this 16 Mbps Jio 4G connection.
Can someone explain the logic behind this and why the speedtest results are so high but real world performance so slow? Am I the only one facing this issues or are other members also facing this issue? The Jio 4G connection behaves like a Dial Up connection nowadays but the speedtest results are still showing great speeds. Is there something going on to manipulate the speedtest results or can there be some other reason? And has anyone found a solution on how to bypass this super slow real-world speeds from Jio 4G nowadays?
