I remember reading articles about how 3G connectivity was going to transform performance and, more generally, the way we used the internet altogether. I remember how, later on, a common question I would get in after giving performance-focused presentations was: “Is any of this going to matter when 4G is available?”

A video with large dimensions or a high bitrate will take longer to download and will require a higher speed network to play back smoothly. This leads to longer startup times, and if the network cannot supply the video fast enough, the video will stall during video playback. We see that an MP4 file is being downloaded.
