In addition, some provider&#8217;s only sell a 1Gbps package (i.e. the results aren&#8217;t impacted by slower tiers) and may have fewer customers (lower confidence in the data), which means apples-to-apples comparisons remain tricky.<\/p>\n<p>We intend to keep expanding this table as AltNets grow, which will in turn result in more data.

All of this can impact signal quality, and that&#8217;s before we even consider differences in network (backhaul) capacity or spectrum ownership.<\/p>\n<p>Suffice to say that studies of mobile broadband speed are inherently open to variation, but the top networks often tend to be those with a combination of the best <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/4g\">4G<\/a> or 5G coverage, a good amount of radio spectrum and the most advanced technologies.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #339966;\">Average Mobile Download Speeds &#8211; H1 &#8211; 2023 vs H2 &#8211; 2022<\/span><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"4\" cellpadding=\"3\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bq3\"><strong> No.<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"bq3\"><strong> Operator<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"bq3\"><strong> H1 &#8211; 2023 (Top 10%)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"bq3\"><strong>H2 &#8211; 2022 (Top 10%)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"vanishmobile\" style=\"text-align: center; border-radius: 4px; color: #434357; border: 1px solid #35b935; background-color: #f0fff1;\"><strong> Change<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1.<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/threeuk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Three UK<\/a><\/td>\n<td>94.8Mbps (259.8Mbps)<\/td>\n<td>70.9Mbps (208.8Mbps)<\/td>\n<td class=\"vanishmobile\">33.71%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2.<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/eebroadband\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">EE<\/a><\/td>\n<td>39Mbps (70.2Mbps)<\/td>\n<td>44.4Mbps (91.8Mbps)<\/td>\n<td class=\"vanishmobile\">-12.16%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>3.<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vodafoneuk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Vodafone<\/a><\/td>\n<td>33.2Mbps (81.5Mbps)<\/td>\n<td>25.8Mbps (60.7Mbps)<\/td>\n<td class=\"vanishmobile\">28.68%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>4.<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/o2uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">O2<\/a><\/td>\n<td>22.5Mbps (52.1Mbps)<\/td>\n<td>24.8Mbps (60.1Mbps)<\/td>\n<td class=\"vanishmobile\">-9.27%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>Average Mobile Upload Speeds &#8211; H1 &#8211; 2023 vs H2 &#8211; 2022<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"4\" cellpadding=\"3\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bq3\"><strong> No.<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"bq3\"><strong> Operator<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"bq3\"><strong>H1 &#8211; 2023 (Top 10%)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"bq3\"><strong>H2 &#8211; 2022 (Top 10%)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"vanishmobile\" style=\"text-align: center; border-radius: 4px; color: #434357; border: 1px solid #35b935; background-color: #f0fff1;\"><strong> Change<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1.<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/threeuk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Three UK<\/a><\/td>\n<td>14Mbps (42.7Mbps)<\/td>\n<td>10.2Mbps (23.4Mbps)<\/td>\n<td class=\"vanishmobile\">37.25%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2.<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/eebroadband\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">EE<\/a><\/td>\n<td>10Mbps (19.8Mbps)<\/td>\n<td>9.6Mbps (19.7Mbps)<\/td>\n<td class=\"vanishmobile\">4.17%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>3.<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vodafoneuk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Vodafone<\/a><\/td>\n<td>7.5Mbps (15.4Mbps)<\/td>\n<td>5.8Mbps (15.1Mbps)<\/td>\n<td class=\"vanishmobile\">29.31%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>4.<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/o2uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">O2<\/a><\/td>\n<td>4.9Mbps (15.1Mbps)<\/td>\n<td>4.6Mbps (12.9Mbps)<\/td>\n<td class=\"vanishmobile\">6.52%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Overall, the <strong>average download speed<\/strong> of the four primary mobile operators was 47.37Mbps (up from 41.47Mbps six months ago) and the <strong>average upload speed<\/strong> hit 9.1Mbps (up from 7.55Mbps).
