According to Ookla, T-Mobile was the most dominating wireless provider in the U.S. during the first quarter.
customers. T-Mobile also had the highest video score rating meaning that those who love to stream videos on their mobile devices have a better experience on T-Mobile.Let's dive deeper into these numbers. T-Mobile's median download data speed of 165.22 Mbps topped Verizon's 75.40 Mbps and AT&T's 68.20 Mbps. As for upload speeds, T-Mobile's median 12.99 Mbps recorded for Q1 was better than Verizon's 9.87 Mbps and the 8.
The scoring for 5G availability was 71.1% for T-Mobile, 68.7% for AT&T, and a disappointing 37.6% for. 5G consistency was tight with no statistical winner according to Ookla. T-Mobile's consistency score was 77.4% compared to Verizon's 76.6% and AT&T's 68.6%. 5G video score was a tie between Verizon and T-Mobile with AT&T in third .
Ulf Ewaldsson, President of Technology at T-Mobile, said,"We’ve gone from being the leading 5G network to establishing ourselves as the overall network leader in an incredibly short amount of time. We’ve taken our network to the top while also providing customers with unbeatable value, without making any compromises, and we still have more up our sleeve."T-Mobile's 5G signals cover 325 million Americans which is more than AT&T and Verizon combined.
While Verizon and AT&T started work on their 5G networks by trying to dazzle consumers with the extremely fast speeds delivered by mmWave high-band spectrum, they failed to consider how limited those signals are in terms of distance making them nearly impossible to access. Additionally, mmWave signals can be blocked by trees, buildings, etc.
The decision by T-Mobile to build its 5G network around mid-band signals is probably the reason why the carrier dominates the performance charts today. By the time Verizon and AT&T started throwing money at C-band auctions in order to grab some mid-band spectrum of its own, T-Mobile had become the early 5G leader in the U.S.
