minus-squaresocsa@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 year agoSame. Having a 10Gb/s data link from my phone comes in handy pretty fucking often.

minus-squareaudiomodder@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down3·1 year agoiPhones can tether via a wifi connection, so that’s not necessary. Does drain the battery a bit faster, though.

minus-squaremoney_loo@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoI wasn’t sure so I didn’t want to say, thanks for the information.
minus-squareHydroel@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoAll smartphones I’ve had since around 2013 could do that. Is Wifi Hotspot still locked behind an ISP paywall exclusively on iPhone?
minus-squareaudiomodder@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoNope. That’s kinda my point though. You don’t NEED to tether.

Android can as well.
