It just means that band 40 is slower in your region/space.
All phones will likely behave similar. ASUS has nothing to do with it, it's your provider with a bad sim configuration.

i apologize, samsung note 8 does support band 40, and several apps confirmed that. now coming to the point. Stop being an asus fan for a moment and lets just analize the situation... i get peak 90mbps in my region. (read it again) . doing speed tests in Both my Note 8 and rog phn 3.
Rog performed worse like 3mpbs was the fastest it could go while my samsung n8 secured around 20mbps, i tested the fact with downloading apps etc etc to the point i thought of punching the shit out of it for performing worse that a 4 year old phone like n8 with an exynos lol not even a sd.
now to the point... lets take a normal day to day task like browsing or just scrolling through insta... it takes a idk some time to get up to speed, speed of 200kbps or less ( my average speed in the area being 20mbps confirmed from my friends jio sim and my note 8. how do i say it, its like there is speed in my area but the phone doesnt utilize it.
its like you give the dog tons of meat but he doesnt eat it.
i did everything i could possibly do like reset, apn, changed bands like band 3, band 5, tested with other anything you could imagine at first (me being a techie) .
WAIT FOR IT MY JIO SIM SHOWED 4G+ AND CONFIRMED IT FROM THE PHONE INFO. TAB THAT IT WAS SURELY ON "CA", STILL THE SPEED WAS LESS THAN 3mbps. wow typing this brings tears to my eyes and many others like me ,now help me out will ya ?

1.) Stop being a deluded clueless person for a moment and take some time to read my response.
2.) I have around 200mbit on LTE+ when I'm around in my city.
3.) This can be caused by 2 things:
You use a cover that literally blocks the Rog3's signal
or
Your provider has a pretty garbage configuration

Problem is clearly PEBUAK.

Atleast I am glad you are getting to use Lte seemlessly on your phones.. my rog 3 is not supporting Lte for airtel network and team asus does not want to respond. Even my dad's realme 2pro, 3 years old phone is supporting 4g lte for the same sim when I swapped it
