Verizon Tops Nationally as Others Also Improving, RootMetrics Tests Find

Verizon still sweeps mobile performance awards at the national level, “including the carrier's tenth straight outright win for overall performance,” RootMetrics reported Thursday. AT&T “remains a strong competitor at the national level” and was tied with Verizon on text performance, RootMetrics said. “Sprint showcases data speed and reliability improvements at the metro level,” the researcher said. “T-Mobile heats up the mobile competition across U.S. metros due to lightning-fast speeds while also increasing its state-level awards.” RootMetrics employees drove 227,689 miles, visited 8,068 indoor locations and did nearly 4 million tests.
