Today, the National Advertising Review Board is recommending that AT&T stop using its 5G Evolution branding, due to the fact that it's not 5G at all, and it might confuse customers.
Announced almost a year ago, AT&T's 5G Evolution network isn't just plain old 4G LTE, but it's actually slower than the 4G LTE services that are provided by competitors Verizon and T-Mobile.
The two networks seem to be in for a legal kerfuffle over AT&T's recent decision to start showing off what is its 4G LTE network as 5G Evolution (5GE) on both Android and iPhone handsets.
