Ookla has released its H1 2024 US Connectivity Report and T-Mobile has kept its crown for the fastest download and upload speeds, best consistency, earned the highest customer ratings, and more. Here’s how T-Mobile performed compared to Verizon and AT&T in the latest study.
Ookla shared a report last month about the state of 5G performance in the US. Now today’s study shows how the major US carriers compare for metrics like overall speed, consistency, video experience, gaming experience, and customer ratings.
The data is based on millions of measurements from January to June 2024.
