Hey,
Sinik The 5G Standalone (SA) setting on your nothing phone depends on your network provider and their support for this technology. In simple terms, there are two types of 5G: Non-Standalone (NSA), which relies on 4G technology in the background, and Standalone (SA), which is the full-fledged 5G experience.
When your phone is set to 5G SA, it optimally taps into the full capabilities of 5G, offering improved data speeds and ultra-low latency. However, this depends on whether your network provider and the nearby network tower support 5G SA. If not, your phone seamlessly switches to 5G NSA (which is 5G with 4G technology), ensuring you still have connectivity.
You can try switching to 5G SA in your settings to see if it improves your network speed. Keep in mind that the actual experience may vary based on your location and the infrastructure provided by your network carrier.
