In many countries, the iPhone 16 series has bested the Samsung Galaxy S24 series in terms of speed. Against the iPhone 14 and iPhone 15, it doesn't even better.
Ookla recently conducted 5G speed and latency tests for the iPhone 16 series. The results showed that these phones performed exceptionally well compared to their predecessors and major competitors — even outperforming the Samsung Galaxy S24 series.
Recommended Videos The iPhone 16 series exhibited a statistically significant advantage in median 5G download speeds in five of the eleven countries studied. In contrast, the Samsung Galaxy S24 family achieved the best median 5G multi-server latency in eight countries, while the iPhone 16 lineup led in 5G latency in only one market.
Related Overall, the iPhone 16 models demonstrated significant speed advantages over previous-generation Apple and Samsung devices in markets such as Canada, France, Taiwan, and — most importantly for most of you reading this — the United States. In the U.S., for example, the iPhone 16 had a median download speed of 324Mbps, while the Galaxy S24 trailed at 287Mbps.
With Black Friday just days away, Ookla suggests these results prove upgrading from an earlier iPhone is worthwhile for anyone who wants the best 5G has to offer— at least in some countries. It notes that the “iPhone 16’s standout performance is hard to ignore and makes a strong case for upgrading.”
