Benchmarking the Global 5G Experience — September 2021

Posted: Sep 09, 2021

With the autumn smartphone upgrade cycle about to start, with the recent launch of new Samsung foldable models such as Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip3 and the new iPhone, as well as models from other brands, many mobile users will be considering purchasing their first 5G phone. Opensignal has again looked at the 5G experience to see how it compares globally and how 5G holds up against the older 4G mobile experience which will be used by most upgraders with 4G-only phones.

How the 5G experience compares across 50 states and 250 US cities

Posted: Sep 02, 2021

As U.S. carriers continue to hit new milestones in their 5G network rollouts, Opensignal has now conducted the most comprehensive analysis of smartphone users’ 5G mobile experience across the U.S. We included all 50 states and as many as 250 cities in this new study. While 5G was present to some extent everywhere, the quality of 5G experience varied significantly. Our 5G users on the East Coast generally had a better 5G experience, followed by users on the West Coast and in the Great Lakes region.

Mobile users are all too familiar with the situation of having a good mobile signal but with a connection that is not good enough to stream video reliably, browse the web, share photos, or do whatever else with their phone. In Opensignal’s new analysis we quantify the level of experience which mobile users are able to rely upon across 20 international markets.

Posted: Jun 14, 2021

The 5G mobile experience continues to change as more smartphone users embrace 5G and operators expand their 5G networks. The Asia Pacific region (APAC) has some of the highest quality 5G experiences that Opensignal users have seen to date. However, there are large differences between markets, depending on how long 5G has been available and the type of wireless spectrum that operators have been able to use for 5G.

Benchmarking the 5G Experience – EMEA – June 2021

Posted: Jun 04, 2021

Across Europe and the Middle East we see a wide range of 5G experience because of different deployment strategies and types of spectrum available for 5G services. In every country our users saw a much better mobile experience using 5G than was possible previously with 4G or 3G network technologies.

グローバル5Gエクスペリエンスのベンチマーク – 2021年4月

Posted: Apr 15, 2021

現実世界の5G測定に関するOpensignalの最新分析では、主要都市の5Gエクスペリエンスが国内のスコアよりもはるかに優れていることがわかりました。全州市 (Jeonju) のユーザーは、最速のエクスペリエンスを得ている世界中の都市と同様、世界最速の5Gダウンロード・スピード平均を誇っています。全州市の5Gダウンロード・スピードである415.6Mbpsは、韓国全体の結果よりも15%速いです。

5Gグローバル・トップ10にある都市のうち、首都はリヤド、東京、ダブリンの3首都のみです。他の都市では、ドバイ、チューリッヒおよびバルセロナと、主なビジネス中心地が複数ランクインしています。おそらく最も注目すべきことは、オーストラリアとスペインで最速の5G都市が、メルボルンがシドニーを破ってオーストラリア最速の都市となり、バルセロナがスペインの首都マドリッドの速度を上回っていることです。カナダで最も人口の多い都市、トロント、モントリオール、バンクーバー居住の人は、カルガリーのウィンタースポーツの目的地にぜひ足を延ばしてカナダ最速の平均5Gダウンロード・スピードを観測ください。

In Opensignal’s latest analysis of real-world 5G measurements across all frequency bands, we see that the leading cities have a significantly better 5G experience than national scores. Users in the city of Jeonju have both the fastest average 5G Download Speed of any city in South Korea as well as the fastest experience in any city we analyzed. Jeonju’s 5G Download Speed of 415.6 Mbps is 15% faster than South Korea’s national result.
