Verizon comes out on top in latest report on U.S. carrier speeds

We regularly see different groups test the four major U.S. carriers to compare what speeds they can put up. Today another such report has come out.

Wirefly has released the results of its latest Speed Test, which compares the download and uploads speeds of AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, and Verizon. These tests cover Q4 2017 and Q1 2018.

The carrier with the fastest overall speeds in the U.S. in Wirefly's Speed Test is Verizon, which posted an average overall speed of 19.92Mbps. AT&T came in second with 18.26Mbps, T-Mobile in third with 17.29Mbps, and Sprint in fourth with 14.77Mbps. This differs from the 1H 2017 report, which saw T-Mo in first, Verizon in second, AT&T in third, and Sprint in fourth.

Those speeds are based on Wirefly's Overall Speed Capability, which gives a carrier's download speed a 90 percent weight while the upload speed gets a 10 percent weight. 

Looking specifically at download speeds, Verizon came out on top with an average download speed of 20.44Mbps, AT&T in second at 19.11Mbps, T-Mobile in third at 18.08Mbps, and Sprint in fourth at 15.60Mbps. Verizon also posted the fastest upload speed, with an average of 15.26Mbps.
