Speedtest Intelligence showed 29 countries in the world where more than 20% of samples were from 2G and 3G connections (combined) during Q3 2022 and met our statistical threshold to be included (down from 70 in Q3 2021). As more users acquire 5G-capable devices, operators need to balance their pricing models to ensure users have sufficient incentives to purchase a 5G tariff.Ĭountries where 5G is not readily available: Speedtest Intelligence points to 5G adoption challenges in some markets, with 5G Availability dropping in Bulgaria, South Korea, the Netherlands, and the U.A.E. Encouraging 5G adoption among users with 5G-capable handsets.Obtaining access to, or refarming, sub-GHz spectrum, to help broaden 5G coverage, as sub-GHz spectrum has superior propagation properties than that of higher frequency spectrum bands.Increasing 5G coverage by deploying additional base stations.recording 54.3% in Q3 2022, well ahead of markets such as Sweden and the U.A.E., with 8.6% and 8.3% respectively.Ĭritical levers for mobile operators to increase 5G Availability include: We see wide disparity in 5G Availability among markets worldwide, with for example the U.S. It’s therefore a function of 5G coverage and adoption. 5G Availability points to on-going challengesĥG Availability measures the proportion of Speedtest users with 5G-capable handsets, who spend a majority of time connected to 5G networks.South Korea and the United Arab Emirates led countries for 5G speeds.Ookla® 5G Map™: 127,509 5G deployments in 128 countries as of November 30, 2022, compared to 85,602 in 112 countries the year prior.5G speeds were stable at the global level with:Ī] Median global 5G download speed of 168.27 Mbps in Q3 2022 as compared to 166.13 Mbps in Q3 2021ī] Median upload speed over 5G slowed slightly to 18.71 Mbps (from 21.08 Mbps) during the same period. Some high-level highlights are the following:
