Here's which carrier and what phone were the fastest download speed guns in the West... and the East.
The fastest download speeds scored by an Apple iPhone go to the flagship iPhone 13 Pro Max and iPhone 13 Pro models, while Samsung's 2021 flagship the Galaxy S21 Ultra rounds up the top five in the category.
Those are pretty explicable numbers, given that the S22 Ultra has Qualcomm's newest X65 5G modem, as it can take full advantage from the carrier aggregation options offered to it. In fact, T-Mobile recently bragged about the optimizations that phones with this modem can enjoy on its network: T-Mobile will be able to take advantage of the Qualcomm X65's three-carrier 5G aggregation in several different ways. The carrier has more than 100MHz of mid-band 5G spectrum in a lot of places, and in those places, it needs 3xCA to do two 100MHz mid-band channels plus a low-band channel for uplink/better range. There are also some cities where its mid-band allocation is split in half and can be used like two separate bands.
3.45-to-3.55GHz spectrum, which is in the middle of being auctioned, should clear in some places by the end of 2022. This means that AT&T, and whoever else buys that spectrum, will potentially see a considerable boost in C-band performance specifically when used with those X65 modems next year, over and above the initial C-band launches.When it comes to 5G, nothing beats T-Mobile yet again.
With the rollout of the C-Band spectrum that Verizon and AT&T bought en masse, the 5G networks ranking in the US may change, but for now T-Mobile clearly has a leg up in the coverage buildout and band mix of its next-gen network.Get the most important news, reviews and deals in mobile tech delivered straight to your inbox
