I'm not experiencing that. I'm also in an "unofficial" 4g zone where 4g is available. For me, the 4g is much faster. Using the Speedtest.net Android app, I got this:

4g with 2 bars:
Test 1:
2566 kbps down
421 kbps up

Test 2:
3429 kbps down
412 kbps up

Test 3:
3729 kbps down
619 kbps up

On 3g:
Test 1:
490 kbps down
151 kbps up

Test 2:
874 kbps down
153 kbps up

Test 3:
597 kbps down
152 kbps up

I am in Jacksonville, FL.
