Overview
- Ookla’s latest US Connectivity Report ranks T‑Mobile highest on Speedtest Connectivity Score (80.12) with a median download speed of 275.55 Mbps and 92.6% 5G availability.
- T‑Mobile also led on median upload speed and latency and earned the top consumer sentiment score from Speedtest users at 3.77 out of 5.
- Verizon recorded the highest Coverage Score at 30.4%, ahead of AT&T’s 26.8% and T‑Mobile’s 24.8%, reflecting broader geographic reach rather than peak speeds.
- Ookla’s metrics show the practical effect: T‑Mobile delivers faster and lower‑latency 5G in served areas (median 5G download measured above 300 Mbps in the report) while Verizon’s advantage matters for users outside strong metro coverage.
- For consumers the takeaway is local: pick for speed if your area has strong T‑Mobile 5G, pick for reach if you travel or live in less dense areas, and note that MVNOs rely on the same major networks for service.
