US Mobile Consumers Have Second Slowest Download Speeds in the World

Open Signal Released some interesting data this year, revealing that T-Mobile has the fastest 4G Network around.  Unfortunately, it’s not actually around very often.

For most Americans, Verizon offer the widest, most expansive coverage for wireless, but if you’re lucky to live in a good T-Mobile region, you can take advantage of their super fast average download speed of 11.5 Mbps. However, the fast speeds are inconsistent. T-Mobile consumers only have LTE access 59% of the time compared to Verizon’s 77%.

Even more frustrating is the fact that South Korean customers have LTE coverage 91% of the time compared to the US’s 67%.
