What is Google Fiber? - 900+ mbps DOWNLOADS! - My Experience

2016-10-20
whatever love goes there was also misery it's no mystery and you and I we got history it's Jimmy with Jim to review room so what is Google Fiber for the average consumer it's crazy fast up to one gigabyte of download and upload internet speeds in America at the time this video there's only nine cities in the entire US that has Google Fiber up and running now there's four other cities that are currently up and coming per the Google map here and another select few eleven specifically there are potential candidates for the expansion so it's a humbling experience for me considering I'm getting to try this out at such an early stage as this will be the future of our Internet so what about pricing I place the packages on your screen right now I'm personally paying these $70 a month option here and I won't get into details about that TV bundle but for those who thinks that maybe they don't need a gig oospeed here there's fiber 100 which is still phenomenal as you do get 100 down but more importantly 100 up that package is $50 a month compared to the world listening to my viewers out there those that say they're from like the Middle East or India in general they are paying very high prices for slow speeds on the other hand my viewers from Japan and other various parts of Europe that actually has fiber it's actually cheaper than what the u.s. is offering right now if you guys can any comment section below let me know what country you're from how much you're paying and how fast are your speeds this will be very interesting to see and compare basically now with that being said besides the crazy speeds which I'll show later that many are aware the benefits Fiber has to offer now when they install this in my neighborhood and taking some photos here during the progress they explain fiber cables runs directly from the hub to my street here the wire then continues into this side of my house into this little box here that you can see nothing too fancy but I just want to show you guys what's inside out of curiosity here they're wire wrapped around the house and then enters into my living room on the side so from the hub the street all the way inside my home that data is completely transferred by the light and because it's fiber there's no electrical interference that we seek on traditional metal wiring only from the wall to the provided modem through my cat5e into my computer is where any electrical interference may or can occur great for businesses in the city up corporate buildings where there's tons of wireless signals or other electrical interferences fiber cables are generally immune to them now let's get into the speed test here here's a quick video as proof this thing is nuts and I'll fast forward to the upload speeds in which I'll be more particularly interested in as you can see hitting over 900 on both ends with a two millisecond ping it's insane but let's do some real-world test clicking on a YouTube video 4k video loads practically instantly with zero buffer time if you click on an unbuffered area just basically skip forward there is a slight delay but seriously minimal Netflix is particularly are practically the same with instant video start ups here in a slight or minor buffer if you do skip ahead now let's jump over to downloading games from Stig downloading h1z1 a file that's roughly 6 and 1/2 gigs had taken a little over 4 minutes to do getting on PlayStation 4 word I think PlayStation 4 owners can attest the download speeds are never near what you're getting from your internet service providers doing an internet speed test it's good compared to the past but nothing close to what fiber is offering I also had a chance to download Call of Duty infinite warfare during their beta last weekend if I recall it was about maybe 15 gigs or so and they had taken about two hours to do but of course when playing games even with a 20 megabit download speed games usually one perfectly fine so overall everyday tasks like webpage loading it's a similar experience nothing too crazy 4k and Netflix really shines with near-instant sometimes instant results downloading is indeed faster but depending on their servers from Steam or whoever it may be it might not allow you to download as fast you expect now my reasoning behind that the average speed in the world is nowhere close to what fibre is offering some short corporate server owners haven't caught up to fiber speeds which is very much understandable so last as I stated I'm actually more interested in upload speeds that's the biggest difference coming from 2 to 10 megabits upload from my previous provider and now we're jumping to 900 it's an upload speeds the first which is my full-time job uploading YouTube videos in this instance a huge difference was noticed by the time Google Fiber finished with that same 800 megabyte file time owners 10 megabit upload was still at around 13% but my ultimate test here and this would possibly put the most strain on my current set-up streaming on Twitch I maxed out every setting that it could that means 1080p at 60 frames per second with the max bitrate that twitch I think allows I went ahead and put it to 5,000 anyways and it had zero problems whatsoever for a stream very minor pixelation during fast moving scenes but overall a great image 60 frames per second Full HD and I have my laptop and iPad viewing the stream at the same time in the house the internet simply didn't slow down so with all that being said I do see some of the benefits at the moment now and it can be overkill for some things today but I'm excited to see what the future holds and I'm certain streaming 4k or setting massive amount of data within a business to Cloud Servers to simply offering more reliable internet in various parts of the world that's just some of the potential that Google fiber or fiber Internet in general has to offer so that's it for this video nothing to detail or scientific but a glimpse into what you might experience when fiber comes into your area hit the like button if you can and subscribe if you haven't and found me on either Facebook Twitter or Instagram you guys take care and I'll see you on the next one bye
