About Megabits
A megabit (Mbit) = 1,000,000 bits (SI). Everyday unit for broadband speeds: ADSL2+ up to 24 Mbit/s; VDSL2 up to 100 Mbit/s; GPON fibre 100-10,000 Mbit/s; 5G NR 100-400 Mbit/s. Streaming: Netflix 1080p = 5 Mbit/s; 4K HDR = 15-25 Mbit/s. Wi-Fi 7 = 46,120 Mbit/s theoretical. ISP 'Mbps' = megabits/s; 'MB/s' (megabytes) is 8× larger. 1 Mbit = 1,000,000 bits = 125,000 bytes.
About Megabytes
A megabyte (MB) = 1,000,000 bytes (SI). Used by all storage manufacturers and by macOS (since 10.6), iOS, and Android. Typical file sizes: JPEG photo (50 MP) = 8-20 MB; 3-min MP3 at 128 kbit/s ≈ 2.9 MB; Android productivity APK 10-150 MB; full-frame RAW photo (Sony A7R V, 61 MP) 60-120 MB. H.264/H.265 achieves 30-100× compression vs. raw video. 1 MB = 1,000,000 bytes = 1,000 KB.
