Simple question, I cannot see if my network signal is 3G/4G (or worse). How do I see this? It was on the home screen of the old iP

you should see at the top right on an iPhone X. right next to the battery life.

Thank you. I can now see that but the symbol disappears when WiFi is on. For example if I’m at home I still want to see if I’m on 3G or 4g to assess my phone call quality.

Turn off WiFi in Settings>Wi-Fi.

Also - I'm not sure that it's going to say 3G. Even with a 4s I remember it always said 4G because Apple contended that it could access 3G networks at "4G speeds". All I ever see on my iPhone 7 is 4G, LTE, or E (enhanced GSM, which isn't that fast).
