Wi-Fi vs. Ethernet

Wi-Fi is more convenient than wired Ethernet cables. But Ethernet still offers advantages — faster speeds, lower latency, and no wireless interference problems. You probably won't be connecting an Ethernet cable to your smartphone any time soon.

Depends on what you plan to do on the internet.
Mostly everything on the internet you can do with Wi-Fi, but as for more demanding things such as streaming, etc. Ethernet would be the better option.

I prefer wifi when on my laptop but Ethernet is a cord plugged directly into your device feeding it teh interwebz.
you think?

Ethernet 🙂 best for speed and stability i like wireless but for my network has to be wired not only for local connectivity of my several computers but for external demand too

In my personal experience.
Wi-fi is faster in terms of connection (upload/download)
Ethernet is more stable than Wi-fi connection
wired connection is almost the same as ethernet connection, the only difference is you have the connection to yourself. Unlike ethernet connection which 2 or more devices/computers/laptops are connected and sharing an internet access.

Yeah but ethernet is faster for steaming and watching videos
Don't laugh but it's only now that I learned what Ethernet means, it is using a cable. Our wifi router is connected to our desktop by a cable which makes it slightly faster in access compared to the phones connected via wireless. But I don't think the difference can be felt because it may just be a fraction of a second. One colleague said that wifi routers are now good unlike in the earlier years when pollution can be felt to interfere in the access.
I don't really worry about it as much as I used to, ethernet is generally faster, but wi-fi is usually good enough and it lets me do things a lot more casually. For instance, I can just sit down with a laptop where ever I want.
