3G speed test: Verizon wins, AT&T dead last
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Cell Phones, Corporate News, Internet, Science, Wireless / WiFi
No shocker here. Wired.com did their own independent tests to determine the fastest and slowest average 3G network speeds in the US, and Verizon came out on top. The survey included 15,000 participants, with 12,000 of them reporting back with data that was valid and usable for the tests. Verizon clocked in with an average download speed of 1,940 kbps, T-Mobile dropped in at second at 1,793 kbps, Sprint took third at 1,598 kbps, and AT&T was way behind at just 901 kbps. That’s just sad, and very telling when you consider the complaints from many an iPhone user as it pertains to 3G speeds.
Granted, this wasn’t the most scientific of studies, as the test included 8153 AT&T users, compared to just 856 from Verizon, but hey, the info is still useful, right?

I wonder whether AT&T’s preponderance of data-hungry iPhones on its network skews the results any.

No duh ATT is gonna be slower with 8153 vs 856 testers from verizon
you also have to include the iphone into this, the iphone uses much more data than any cell phone out there, of course its gonna be slower in the ATT network because the traffic is much heavier through their network vs verizon.
