The measurement technicians drove 24 routes and covered a distance of 1,109km across Greater London.<\/p>\n<div class=\"bq2\"><strong>NOTE: <\/strong>The maximum ranking for an operator is 1,000 points, where 350 points is the maximum for voice services and 650 is the maximum for data services.<\/div>\n<p>The testing itself involved a range of voice and data service categories including, accessibility, reliability, speech quality and mobile broadband speed-tests using customer applications such as the browsing of popular web pages, video streaming and more. For data (mobile broadband) services, a total of around 14,600 data samples per operator were collected. For voice services, around 1,300 test calls were made and 14 speech samples were collected in each test call, resulting in a total of around 17,600 speech samples.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vodafoneuk\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Vodafone<\/a> scored the highest number of ranking points \u2013 957.73 out of a possible 1,000 points (up from 932.83 in 2025).
