BELLEVUE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--It's not Halloween yet, but the Un-carrier is serving up frights to AT&T and Verizon. Ookla, the global leader in network intelligence and connectivity insights, today shared a report confirming T-Mobile’s (NASDAQ: TMUS) network remains undefeated in overall network performance and 5G performance in its Speedtest® Global Index Market Analysis United States Q3 2023 report — no tricks here, just treats!

Overall Network Performance

• Fastest Provider: T-Mobile has the fastest mobile network with median download speeds more than 2x faster than Verizon and AT&T. The anxiety level when getting ready to board a flight with nothing to watch? A big fat zero with T-Mobile’s superior speeds.
