On top of that they also delivered the fastest median (average) broadband download speed of 43Mbps (similar to 42.6Mbps in H1).<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Much like the previous H1 2020 study, the latest H2 update was conducted by harnessing a number of <strong>Samsung Note 10+ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/5g\">5G<\/a><\/strong> Smartphones, purchased off the shelf, to test both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/4g\">4G<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/5g\">5G<\/a> performance. The data this time around will thus include some impact from the first full year of 5G deployments in 2020, although the coverage of such services remains limited.<\/p>\n<p>As usual the testing was conducted during both the day and night across 16 of the UK&#8217;s most populated cities, while walking and driving. Overall a total of 644,546 tests were completed, including 25,856 miles driven and over 750 total places visited. Sadly, this means we don&#8217;t get a good picture of rural performance as that isn&#8217;t the main focus.<\/p>\n<p>The study then splits its results into several categories (network reliability, speed, data, call and text quality etc.) and each is assigned a score out of 100 (higher numbers = better). In terms of the UK-wide results, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/eebroadband\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">EE<\/a> came top of every single category and their closest rival remains <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vodafoneuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Vodafone<\/a>, but there weren&#8217;t many dramatic changes this time around.<\/p>\n<blockquote style=\"line-height: 29px;\"><p><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>Overall Scores for H2 2020 (vs H1 2020 Result)<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n1. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/eebroadband\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">EE<\/a> \u2013 94.2 (down from 95.2)<br \/>\n2. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vodafoneuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Vodafone<\/a> \u2013 89.8 (down from 90)<br \/>\n3. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/threeuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Three UK<\/a> \u2013 86.6 (up from 86.5)<br \/>\n4. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/o2uk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">O2<\/a> \u2013 85.4 (up from 85.2)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In terms of average (median) download speeds, EE delivered the strongest showing on 43Mbps (Megabits per second) across both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/4g\">4G<\/a> and 5G networks combined, but that was largely unchanged from the 42.6Mbps recorded during H1 2020 and it&#8217;s a similar story elsewhere. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vodafoneuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Vodafone<\/a> achieved 21.1Mbps (up from 19Mbps), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/threeuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Three UK<\/a> hit 13.9Mbps (down from 14.1Mbps) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/o2uk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">O2<\/a> reached 12.9Mbps (up from 13.3Mbps).<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"ngg-singlepic ngg-none\" style=\"width: 100%; padding: 0px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/gallery\/2021-uk-internet-statistics\/rootmetrics_h2_2020_uk_mobile_network_scores.png\" alt=\"Rootmetrics h2 2020 uk mobile network scores\"><\/p>\n<p>The study also includes a limited summary of how the new 5G based mobile broadband networks are performing (4G excluded). Overall EE had the highest 5G availability in 15 of the 16 cities tested, while their lowest availability was a still respectable 19.6% in Edinburgh.<\/p>\n<p>The highest 5G availability for EE was found in Nottingham (57%), while for Vodafone it was Liverpool (44%), then <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/threeuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Three UK<\/a> did best in Hull (29.6%) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/o2uk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">O2<\/a>&#8217;s strongest showing was also Hull (17.1%). As for the UK&#8217;s capital city of London, EE saw 5G availability of 39.9%, while Three UK hit 16.8%, Vodafone reached 9.7% and O2 finished bottom on just 6.6%.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile the fastest 5G median download speed for EE was found in Hull (143Mbps), while Vodafone did well in London (216.6Mbps), O2 topped out in Belfast (178.9Mbps) and Three UK&#8217;s fastest was also Belfast (137.2Mbps).<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>Summary of 5G Results by UK Mobile Operator<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>EE offers a strong combination of fast 5G speeds plus broad 5G availability: <\/strong>EE\u2019s 5G median download speeds were consistently fast in every city we tested\u2014and much faster than those on 4G LTE\u2014ranging from a speedy 106.5 Mbps in Sheffield to an excellent 143.6 Mbps in Hull. EE\u2019s 5G availability was also impressive in general and broad compared to the other operators. Indeed, EE had the highest 5G availability in 15 of the 16 cities we tested, and EE\u2019s lowest 5G availability of 19.6% in Edinburgh was higher than O2\u2019s highest 5G availability of 17.1% in Hull. The bottom line is that EE\u2019s 5G users should find relatively widespread access to 5G in nearly every city we tested along with quick access to content and entertainment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>O2 delivers consistently fast speeds but generally low 5G availability: <\/strong>O2 clocked 5G median download speeds of at least 117.6 Mbps in 10 of the 11 cities in which we recorded 5G results for the operator, and O2\u2019s 5G speed of 178.9 Mbps in Belfast was particularly impressive. That said, O2 was the only operator that didn\u2019t register 5G availability of at least 20% in any city, with its 5G availability maxing out at 17.1%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Three clocks fast speeds but availability shows room for improvement:<\/strong> While Three (and others) offered generally low 5G availability in most cities (Three topped out at 29.6%), its 5G speeds were a different story. Three\u2019s 5G median download speeds ranged from a strong 79.1 Mbps in Sheffield to super-fast 137.2 Mbps in Belfast. Even though Three\u2019s 5G users may not be able to access 5G all the time, the good news is that its 5G availability should continue to grow, and when users do connect to 5G, they should find quick access to content.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vodafone shows fast but relatively limited 5G:<\/strong> Similar to what we observed for O2 and Three, Vodafone\u2019s 5G availability was generally low, but its 5G speeds were impressive. While Vodafone\u2019s 5G availability exceeded 20% in only two cities, with 24.9% in Bristol and a solid 44.0% in Liverpool (the highest in the city), the operator\u2019s availability was below 15.3% in its other 10 cities with 5G. Vodafone\u2019s 5G speeds, meanwhile, were fast, ranging from a strong 81.6 Mbps to a remarkable 216.6Mbps, the fastest 5G median download speed of any operator.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The RootMetrics study also gave a result for each operator&#8217;s aggregate median mobile broadband download speed across each of the four UK nations &#8211; including England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"ngg-singlepic ngg-none\" style=\"width: 100%; padding: 0px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/gallery\/2021-uk-internet-statistics\/rootmetrics_h2_2020_speed_by_uk_region_scotland_wales_nireland_england.jpg\" alt=\"rootmetrics_h2_2020_speed_by_uk_region_scotland_wales_northern ireland_england\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The latest biannual H2 2020 study of mobile network (4G and 5G) performance across the United Kingdom by RootMetrics has found that EE (BT) continues to be the best overall operator.
