Yes, by default. But in some cities they have "enhanced" LTE, whatever that is, that can go up to 70ish Mbps.

That's sad, though. Nothing prevents a carrier in the world's most technologically and economically developed country to put more cell towers with more sector antennas targeting different, segregated areas, and use quality equipment from Ericsson, use 20+20+20 MHz 3-Carrier Aggregation, and achieve >1000 Mb/s on LTE-A. Which is what is being done in Croatia.

Info about Croatia: https://www.telecompaper.com/news/a1-hrvatska-increases-mobi...

(it's Paywalled though, and Outline doesn't help. -- here is the article in Croatian: https://mreza.bug.hr/a1-hrvatska-omogucila-mobilno-surfanje-... )

edit: Could the downvoter explain themselves, since I know every word of the HN guidelines, and downvoting for disagreeing is discouraged. Also, I don't even live in Croatia, I live in another neighbouring country.
