I have a plan to buy either Archer AX10 or Archer AX23, but I'm confused why AX10 which is only 2.4GHz n300 has wider wifi range than AX23 with 2.4GHz ax574?

Note that this is in case of AX10 HW v1.20

 

While AX10 on its 2.4GHz band is only 802.11n capable, it has a high-power front-end module (FEM) implemented (circled in red):

Bandwidth and coverage are different concepts.

  @terziyski well, I get more confused, does this mean 2.4GHz 802.11n is more powerful than 2.4GHz 802.11ax? though it is only 300Mbps and the 2.4GHz 802.11ax is 574Mbps and has high-performance antennas? The n 300 Mbps can cover 3 bedrooms and the ax 574 Mbps only about 2-3 bedrooms
