Mobile operators EE<\/a> and Vodafone<\/a> have today come top in umlaut<\/a>‘s (formerly P3) annual 2019 UK Mobile Network Test, which used a range of different benchmarks to test 3G<\/a> and 4G<\/a> (voice and data \/ broadband) services across 21 cities, 29 towns and along 10,700km of major roads.<\/p>\n

Both of the study’s drivetests and walktests were conducted during November 2019 using a Samsung Galaxy S9<\/strong> Smartphone for each operator. Four drive test vehicles covered a total of 10,700km, visiting 21 cities and 29 towns. Additionally, two walk test teams visited 10 cities and travelled on trains between them. The test area accounts for 17 million people or approximately 27% of the total population of the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n

On top of that umlaut also harnessed crowdsourced data, which was collected over 24 weeks from early June to mid-November 2019. For the collection of crowd data, umlaut had integrated a background diagnosis process into 800+ diverse Android apps. Overall the drive and walk tests produced around 226,361 data and 28,635 voice samples. By comparison their crowd-sourced testing involved 316,000 users providing 5.3 billion test samples.<\/p>\n

Overall EE<\/a> performed best by taking the lead in all three categories, alongside an overall grade of very good and a score of 876 out of 1,000 points (down from 879 last year). Vodafone<\/a> remains second ranked with an overall grade of good and a score of 839 points (up from 796 last year – Vodafone<\/a> is said to have “improved considerably<\/em>” over the year).<\/p>\n

The second largest operator, O2<\/a>, ranks third with an overall grade of satisfactory and a score of 697 (up from 663 last year). O2<\/a> also ranks third in the data and voice categories and second in the crowd category. The fourth place is held by Three UK<\/a>, who achieves a score of just 621 (down from 711 last year) and an overall grade of sufficient.<\/p>\n

\"umlaut<\/p>\n

The results and standings broadly mirror various other studies, which tend to put the operators in a similar order.<\/p>\n

Hakan Ekmen, CEO of umlaut Telecommunication, told ISPreview.co.uk:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Congratulations to EE<\/a> for being the winner of this year’s benchmark. Vodafone follows with the most improved score, while O2<\/a> also deserves acknowledgement for a clear score improvement, compared to our previous benchmark, and advancing to third place. Finally, Three provides good voice services, particularly in towns and on roads. With all UK operators starting to deploy 5G<\/a>, we are looking forward to evaluating their 5G<\/a> performance next year.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We’ve posted some of the raw scores and statistics below from cities, including mobile broadband speeds, although we’ve excluded the voice results since most operators delivered very good voice quality and thus this aspect of service is less of a problem area than data performance and availability. Sadly the benchmark’s focus on urban areas means we don’t really get a proper picture of rural performance.<\/p>\n
