Why Rain 5G?
Rain has grown over the years to become one of the country’s biggest mobile broadband companies. That’s surprising for a company that was relatively late to the scene. Each day, the company adds thousands of new customers.
It’s worth noting, however, that Rain also has an astonishing attrition rate. Our article on how to cancel your Rain account gets hundreds of hits per day. The major reason why people seek to leave is because the 4G network can be patch and congested.
That’s not the case for the 5G network. It’s still speedy enough to make downloading and streaming a breeze. In terms of speed, the lowest priced Rain 5G package promises speeds of up 30Mbps. That’s more than enough for most uses. By contrast, the 4G for any device plan offers speeds that are limited to 10Mbps.
