Xb7 vs Netgear R7000 Router

Recently upgraded my SB6183 to Comcast Xb7. So I was using the Netgear R7000 router with SB6183 then I was reading that I can still use the R7000 in Bridge mode. Currently my plan is 800 Mbps. If I use the R7000 will I still get these 800? Or is the router inside Xb7 better? I think this wifi 6 is AX which the R7000 doesn't have I don't even think the Xb7 is even using this currently in my area.

What did you find out? I've been trying my R7000 router but it seems the internet doesn't stretch very far and the Netgear customer service is pretty bad since I'm outside the 1 yr warrantee. Also curious as to whether you use the smart wifi or not? I have opposite tech recommendations for using vs not.
