> has better performance (lower latency) than turning your smartphone into an access point and using that

Generally I've had good performance running an access point on my phone, this is the first time I've heard otherwise. I'd be interested in benchmarks if anyone knows of some?



On my iPhone I get about 70 Mbps tethering using Wi-Fi, 250 Mbps tethering using USB-C, vs about 400 Mbps running the speedtest on the phone itself.
