One of those includes a 100MHz block of contiguous spectrum in the 3.4-3.8GHz band ( here), which is known to be a sweet spot for 5G. The operator could already harness a total of 140MHz (frequency) for 5G, across several radio spectrum bands. The good downstream performance probably reflects Three UK’s strong spectrum holdings. However, clearly Three UK were indeed the fastest, albeit only for 5G download speeds. The reason why uploads and latency times are only a little better than those of existing 4G services is because most of the current 5G deployments actually still make some use of 4G connectivity and spectrum, which won’t change until Standalone (SA) 5G is deployed. Median Latency (lower figures are faster) We aren’t quite sure why O2 has a significantly smaller sample size, but it is what it is. The following results were extracted from a total of 190,055 speed tests conducted by users on Three UK’s network, as well as 123,242 on Vodafone, some 251,626 on EE ( BT) and just 64,737 on O2. At the time, Ookla had not yet revealed such results, but they have now supplied them.
