News & Reviews:   open signal

Opensignal would usually come up with a report that usually involves all the telcos in Malaysia. But today, its report only involves Digi's 4G network, particularly on its mobile internet performance after merging with Celcom.

It's been a while since we had a report on our local telcos' mobile network performance. But Opensignal is back again with another one. The data collection started from June until the end of August 2023 and this is what Opensignal says in the latest Mobile Network Experience Report in Malaysia.

Today, Opensignal is back with another new report on the Impact of 5G on the Malaysian Mobile Experience. In this report, it's said that the Malaysian mobile experience has improved significantly since November 2022. This includes Availability, Download Speed, Upload Speed and Games Experience scores increasing both for 5G and overall.

Opensignal, a website specialising in mobile network performance measurement and analysis recently lauded Malaysia as a global leader in 5G connectivity thanks to our fast and reliable networks. This is according to its latest “Benchmarking the Global 5G Experience” study released in June which ranked our country favourably in multiple categories.

It wasn't that long ago when Opensignal released its Global Mobile Network Experience Awards 2023. Now, we have access to its latest Mobile Network Experience Report 2023 and below are just some of the interesting findings.

Recently, Opensignal released two new reports about each country's mobile network experience globally. As usual, we will be taking a look at our local telco's performance in various categories. 

Since all the local telcos are on board (except Maxis) with Digital Nasional Berhad's 5G Single Wholesale Network (SWN), Opensignal could finally do better research on Malaysians' 5G experience. Although it's still relatively early, Opensignal reported that we have "demonstrated an impressive improvement over existing 4G networks".

We are entering the fourth quarter of the year soon but before that, Opensignal just released the latest report of Malaysia's Mobile Network Experience report. As usual, there are just a couple of key findings from June until August 2022, namely, Digi, Celcom and Maxis.

Yup, you read the headline correctly. We aren't kidding with this latest 5G analysis report by Opensignal. It was only published yesterday and we are just as surprised as you to find out that Kuala Lumpur is in second place in terms of 5G download speed (Mbps). The charts are based on Asia Pacific Accreditation Cooperation (APAC)'s biggest cities. 

Yes, we are as surprised as you are. In this latest global 5G experience report by Opensignal, Malaysia is actually one of the top rankings in three 5G speed categories, as well as 5G Games Experience. As many of you should know, 5G is still rolling out and not available in many states at all.
