Opensignal is the independent global standard for analyzing consumer mobile experience. Our industry reports are the definitive guide to understanding the true experience consumers receive on wireless networks.
The difference between the two operators' scores was 12.2 Mbps (37.2%) in Download Speed Experience. Ooredoo users' average download speeds of 45 Mbps were a long way ahead of our Vodafone users who saw speeds of 32.8 Mbps. As a result, Ooredoo comfortably holds onto the Opensignal award.
Upload speed is important for sharing photos and videos over social media, connecting to virtual private networks (VPNs) or for sending document attachments over email. On this measure of speed, there is an even greater margin of victory for Ooredoo with its score of 13.6 Mbps being 50.9% faster than Vodafone's score of 9 Mbps.
In the last report, Ooredoo won the award outright, but now our users saw an experience that was statistically level on both Vodafone and Ooreedo's networks. While Ooredo scored 81.2 in the last report, this time it has slipped slightly to 78.4. Vodafone's score of 78.5 is a tie because the confidence intervals overlap with Ooredoo. Voice App Experience quantifies real-time communications using popular apps such as WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger or Skype.
With a score of 62.3 on a 100-point scale, Ooredoo once again wins the Games Experience award ahead of Vodafone's score of 57.1. Opensignal Games Experience measures the real-world experience of mobile users when playing real-time online multiplayer games in popular genres such as battle royale or massive online battle arena (MOBA). Examples of mobile games in these genres include PUBG, Fortnite, and Arena of Valor.
Ooredoo is the dominant operator in Opensignal's latest mobile network experience awards. However, Vodafone has successfully narrowed the gap to jointly win a second award this time, up from one in the last report.
In this report, we have analyzed the overall mobile network experience of all our users in Qatar on two national operators, Ooredoo and Vodafone, over a 90-day period starting on July 1 and ending on September 28, 2021. We have used 5G measurements in addition to those from previous generations of mobile network technology when determining the overall scores for each metric.
