    The speed of your phone is a whole difference than the speed of the internet so don't compare them. Again they are totally different.

    Ping aka latency is how far you are located from/to the server.

    Let's say you live in New york and you're playing an online game which the server located in CA.

    Your internet bandwidth is 50/50 mbps ups and downs. But your ping is 100.

    Meaning it doesn't matter if you have the fastest internet, if you have high latency in game. You will lag

    Btw 4g is fake.

    The real 4g is 4g lte.
