Remember last week when YouTube accused T-Mobile of throttling video traffic? T-Mobile’s reply: it wasn’t throttling the video traffic but simply optimizing content for mobile consumption.

Anonymous, 01 Jan 2016people are flipping out over this, but honestly on a 5 inch... moreSadly for me, my phone connects to my TV via HDMI so my unlimited data may get throttled, and playing on a big screen for a small size frame is no so good quality.

    amlost, 01 Jan 2016what do they mean by "throttle" or "throttling"...anybody????To control. When they throttle your speeds, that means they can reduce your LTE speeds down to 3G speeds. Say if you watch a 1080p video on YouTube, when they throttle your connection, the quality will force the video to play at 480p instead.

        people are flipping out over this, but honestly on a 5 inch screen, 480p is plenty. You won't notice a huge differance if any at all frankly
