Cellular Coverage & Performance Analysis for the Second Half of 2023

Hey,

Stetson here.

I’m excited to share CoverageMap.com has published its first-ever coverage report!

The report was written by Trevor, and he does a deep-dive on how cellular coverage footprints and cellular performance have changed on the major carriers from the first half of 2023 to the second half of 2023.

Trevor dives in to:

• How T-Mobile saw the largest coverage expansion, growing by more than 1.6%

• How Verizon is catching up to T-Mobile in 5G performance, with a 21.2% improvement in 5G speeds

• How LTE speeds decreased by 5%-10% across the board

• And more!

Here’s a sample of the data:

The report also includes:

• Different carriers’ strategies in LTE and 5G coverage expansion

• Changes to median LTE download speeds, upload speeds, and latency

• Changes to median 5G download speeds, upload speeds, and latency

• And more!

I think you’ll find the data fascinating.

See the report here.

Regards,

Stetson
