Although iPhones see faster mobile data speeds on average, that isn’t necessarily because they have faster cellular radios.

Analytico has found that iOS users on the MyBroadband Speedtest App have had access to faster mobile data speeds than their Android counterparts.

This includes 2,425 iOS devices and 6,389 running Android, showing that Android devices are more popular in South Africa than their iOS counterparts. Upload speeds showed a similar difference, with Android users only reaching an average of 10.36 Mbps while iOS averaged 13.86 Mbps. These speeds are all fine for most tasks anyone would use their smartphones for, but a win is still a win.
