Many studies, like is the one made by RootMetrics. The source calculated, between 8th and 13th of November 2014 the results of the four big carriers’ networks in San Jose. The study was based on the combined speed and reliability of the network.

98.5 is the score

So, even though with a very small margin, T-Mobile overpassed Verizon and T-Mobile scoring 98.5, comparing to 98.3 and 98.0! On the last position, Sprint managed to get a score of only 93.7 which means a very big gap from the competition.

50 percent more speed in half of year

The carrier’s median download speed went up from 15.1 Mbps (tested in May) to 25.3 Mbps, while the upload speed average increased from 14.1 Mbps to 20.3 Mbps, which are for sure quite impressive results in only half of year!
