Key Findings
Etisalat wins both overall speeds awards
Our Etisalat users enjoyed the fastest average overall speeds in the United Arab Emirates, as the operator wins both Download Speed Experience and Upload Speed Experience awards again, with scores of 51.1 Mbps and 11.4 Mbps, respectively. In Download Speed Experience, Etisalat increased its lead over du from 12.6 Mbps seen in the previous report to 15.4 Mbps this time around. However, both du and Etisalat saw impressive increases in their average overall download speeds since the last report, of 29.7% and 27.4%, respectively.
Etisalat jumps on the winners’ podium for 5G Download Speed after an impressive speed boost
In the previous report, du won 5G Download Speed outright. This time around, Etisalat forced a statistical tie against the previous sole winner, thanks to a stunning boost in our Etisalat users’ average 5G download speeds of 53.1 Mbps (18.4%), since the last report. With no statistically significant change in du’s score, both operators end as joint winners of 5G Download Speed award, with scores in the 316.6-341.2 Mbps. Etisalat remains the sole winner of the other 5G speed award — 5G Upload Speed, with a score of 30.3 Mbps.
Du seizes the Voice App Experience award from Etisalat
Du is the new outright winner of the Voice App Experience due to a 2.9 point increase in its score. The operator wins the award outright with a score of 75.8 points on a 100 point scale — 2.1 points ahead of the previous sole winner. Du placed in the Acceptable (74-80) category, which means perceptible call quality impairments were experienced by some users, but listeners were generally able to comprehend without repetition.
Etisalat rates Excellent for 5G Video Experience
Etisalat wins both video experience awards outright. It retains Video Experience with a score of 59.4 points, 10.9 points ahead of du. However, both operators scored significantly higher in 5G Video Experience. Etisalat wins this award outright for the second consecutive time, with a score of 76.6 points, while du scored 69.2 points. As a result, our Etisalat users had an Excellent (75 or above) experience when streaming mobile video over 5G, while those on du’s network had a Very Good (65-75) experience instead. In both cases, Emirati operators placed two categories higher than what they did for Video Experience.
Du remains unmatched for both 5G extent awards
Both 5G Availability and 5G Reach awards go to du, as it wins them for the third and second time in a row, respectively. The operator is the sole winner of 5G Availability, as our du 5G users had an active 5G connection for 19.6% of the time — 7.9 percentage points higher than Etisalat’s score. In 5G Reach, du wins with a score of 5.1 points on a 10-point scale. However, Etisalat is catching up, as it has whittled away at du’s lead and halved the gap from 1.5 points seen in the previous report to 0.7 points this time around.
Our Etisalat users once again had the most consistent experience in the UAE
Etisalat wins both Opensignal consistency awards for the second consecutive time in Opensignal reports. It claims Excellent Consistent Quality (HD video, group video conference calls and gaming) with a score of 70.2% and Core Consistent Quality (lower performance applications including SD video, voice calls and web browsing) with a score of 79.1%. These scores reflect the percentage of users’ tests in which the operator met the minimum recommended performance thresholds. Etisalat commands leads of 9.5 and 8.4 percentage points over second-placed du, respectively.
Mobile Experience Awards
Market Overview
In Opensignal's latest United Arab Emirates Mobile Network Experience report, Etisalat collects the most awards. The operator wins seven awards outright — both video awards, three out of four speed awards and both consistency awards. Du’s award haul consists of four awards claimed outright — both measures of a 5G network’s extent (5G Availability and 5G Reach), as well as two overall experiential metrics — Games Experience and Voice App Experience, the latter award snatched away from Etisalat. Both operators share the remaining four awards — up from just one joint victory, 5G Games Experience, seen in the previous report.
In the recent 5G Global Mobile Network Experience Awards 2022 report, Opensignal recognized du and Etisalat across several categories. Both operators saw one of the highest 5G to 4G improvements in the world in Download Speed, Upload Speed and Games Experience, with du making it to the Video Experience list as well. Du is also one of 5G Global High Performers for 5G Availability, 5G Reach and 5G Download Speed, while Etisalat — for 5G Download Speed and 5G Upload Speed.
Our results in this report are based on measurements collected across all major mobile operators in the United Arab Emirates — du and Etisalat — over the period of 90 days between July 1, 2022 and September 28, 2022, to see how they fared.
Overall Experience
National Analysis
Just like in the previous report, Etisalat takes home Video Experience, this time with a score of 59.4 points. It commanded an impressive lead of 10.9 points ahead of second-placed du. Etisalat placed in the Good (55-65) category, while du landed in a category below — Fair (40-55)
Our 5G users on both du and Etisalat enjoyed a better user experience, as both operators placed one category higher than in Video Experience. Our 5G users on du’s network enjoyed Good (55-65) video services, with a 12.1 points higher score compared to its Video Experience result. Meanwhile, Etisalat rated as Very Good (65-75), with a score 9.8 points higher than its Video Experience. A Very Good Video Experience means generally fast loading times and only occasional stalling but the experience might have been somewhat inconsistent across users and/or video providers/resolutions.
Definitions
Opensignal’s Video Experience quantifies the quality of video streamed to mobile devices by measuring real-world video streams over an operator's networks. The metric is based on an International Telecommunication Union (ITU) approach, built upon detailed studies which have derived a relationship between technical parameters, including picture quality, video loading time and stall rate, with the perceived video experience as reported by real people. To calculate video experience, we are directly measuring video streams from end-user devices and using this ITU approach to quantify the overall video experience for each operator on a scale from 0 to 100. The videos tested include a mixture of resolutions — including Full HD (FHD) and 4K / Ultra HD (UHD) — and are streamed directly from the world’s largest video content providers.
In addition to Video Experience, we report on the following metrics related to video experience:
- 5G Video Experience: The average Video Experience of Opensignal users when they were connected to an operator’s 5G network.
- Video Experience – 5G Users: The average Video Experience of Opensignal users with a 5G device and a 5G subscription across an operator's networks. It factors in 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G video experience along with the availability of each technology.
- 4G Video Experience: The average Video Experience of Opensignal users on an operator's 4G network.
- 3G Video Experience: The average Video Experience of Opensignal users on an operator’s 3G network.
National Analysis
It is the second triumph in a row for du in Games Experience, as the operator wins outright, with a score of 64.4 points — 7.1 points ahead of its rival, Etisalat, which scored 57.3 points. The winner increased its lead over Etisalat by 2.6 points, compared to the previous report. However, both operators remained in the same category, Poor (40-65), with du just 0.6 points shy of the Fair (65-75) category.
Our 5G users observed no statistically significant difference between the Emirati mobile operators in terms of their overall experience when playing real-time multiplayer mobile games. Both du and Etisalat rated as Fair (65-75), as their Games Experience — 5G Users scores were 4.8 and 11.6 points higher, respectively, than their overall Games Experience results. A Fair rating means users found their experience to be average and the majority of players reported that they noticed a delay between their actions and the outcomes of the game.
Definitions
Opensignal’s Games Experience measures how mobile users experience real-time multiplayer mobile gaming on an operator’s network. Measured on a scale of 0-100, it analyzes how our users’ multiplayer mobile gaming experience is affected by mobile network conditions including latency, packet loss and jitter.
Games Experience quantifies the experience when playing real-time multiplayer mobile games on mobile devices connected to servers located around the world. The approach is built on several years of research quantifying the relationship between technical network parameters and the gaming experience as reported by real mobile users. These parameters include latency (round trip time), jitter (variability of latency) and packet loss (the proportion of data packets that never reach their destination). Additionally, it considers multiple genres of multiplayer mobile games to measure the average sensitivity to network conditions. The games tested include some of the most popular real-time multiplayer mobile games (such as Fortnite, Pro Evolution Soccer and Arena of Valor) played around the world.
Calculating Games Experience starts with measuring the end-to-end experience from users’ devices to internet end-points that host real games. The score is then measured on a scale from 0 to 100.
In addition to Games Experience, we report on the following metrics related to games experience:
- 5G Games Experience: The average Games Experience of Opensignal users when they were connected to an operator’s 5G network.

National Analysis
Thanks to a 0.5 percentage point increase in its score, du joined Etisalat on the winners’ podium for Availability. Both operators jointly win this award with statistically tied scores of 98.4-98.5%. The scores reflect the percentage of time Opensignal users spent connected to 3G or better services.
Definitions
Our availability metrics are not a measure of a network’s geographical extent. They won’t tell you whether you are likely to get a signal if you plan to visit a remote rural or nearly uninhabited region. Instead, they measure what proportion of time people have a network connection, in the places they most commonly frequent — something often missed by traditional coverage metrics. Looking at when users have a connection rather than where, provides us with a more precise reflection of the true user experience.
We also keep track of the instances that leave mobile users most frustrated: when there is no signal to connect to at all. The most common dead zones users struggle with occur indoors. As most of our availability data is collected indoors (as that’s where users spend most of their time), we’re particularly astute at detecting areas of zero signal.
Our availability metrics take a user-centric, time-based approach that complements the user-centric and geographical-based methodology used by our reach metrics.
Availability shows the proportion of time all Opensignal users on an operator’s network had either a 3G, 4G or 5G connection.

Confidence Intervals
For every metric we calculate statistical confidence intervals indicated on our graphs. When confidence intervals overlap, our measured results are too close to declare a winner. In those cases, we show a statistical draw. For this reason, some metrics have multiple operator winners.
In our bar graphs we represent confidence intervals as boundaries on either sides of graph bars.
In our supporting-metric charts we show confidence intervals as +/- numerical values.
