An OpenSignal study shows us that the 5G network in France would be one of the best in the world.
The deployment of the 5G mobile telecommunications network in France is barely three years old. But if this network has been the subject of controversy around its hypothetical impact on health or the environment, it has still benefited from quality operations. To the point that, according to this new study, France is the best-off country of all the seven most developed countries in the world (brought together within the G7).
France number 1 two years in a row
Rather Free or Orange for your 5G plan? The answer shouldn’t matter too much, at least when compared with the rest of the world. This is what the study produced by OpenSignal shows, the results of which were published by the Financial Times. According to this, France is well ahead in terms of the quality of its 5G network.
This in fact displays an average speed of 221.1 Mbps in 2023, which places our country far ahead of the United States (157 Mbps), Japan (153.3 Mbps) and Germany (151.8 Mbps). ). France already occupied this same first place last year.
The rest of the G7 countries far behind
Beyond this gold medal, it should be noted that the average 5G speed in other large developed countries is much lower, with none even reaching the level of France last year. At that time, the average speed in our territory was 192.2 Mbps. The report also shows that certain countries have seen their average flow decline over one year.
In Japan, it went from 171.8 to 153.3 Mbps, while in the United Kingdom, it fell from 136.5 to 118.2 Mbps. Suffice it to say that if the price of Go roaming will drop next year for you when you are out and about in Europe, you will however have to be a little more patient than when you are browsing at home!
