In the era of the iPhone 4S, AT&T began rolling out 4G bands to consumers. Instead of 3G at the top of the screen, iPhone would display 4G. Despite this, it wasn't anything different than 3G in terms of speed. 4G LTE was the actual 4G consumers were looking for. Now, with 5G on the way, AT&T has done something similar today. They are currently rolling out 5G E to iOS 12.2 [Source:
MacRumors]. "E" stands for Evolution, which is a marketing term designed to mislead consumers. No commercial smartphone can use 5G yet. 5G E has the same speeds as 4G LTE and any differences are changes made on AT&T's side. In short, if you are on AT&T, don't get too excited when you see you've been "upgraded" to 5G E.
