Key Findings
A1 retains Download Speed Experience, but 3 and Magenta are catching up
A1 defends the Download Speed Experience award with a score of 50.1Mbps — 9.2-9.5Mbps ahead of 3 and Magenta which are in a statistical tie for second place. Our users on 3’s and Magenta’s networks observed boosts in speeds of 2Mbps and 5.5Mbps respectively over the previous report, while A1’s score remains statistically unchanged.
3 increases the lead over its rivals for 5G Download Speed
3 retains the 5G Download Speed award — its only sole victory — and claims the award for the fourth time in a row, remaining the only winner of this award since Opensignal introduced it in November 2021. Our users on 3’s network enjoy average 5G download speeds clocking in at 240.8Mbps. The operator widens its winning margin over second-placed Magenta to 87.3Mbps (56.8%), due to a spectacular increase of 30Mbps — while A1 and Magenta’s scores are statistically unchanged.
Magenta wins Upload Speed Experience outright
Since the last report, one award has changed hands, as Magenta pulls ahead of A1 for Upload Speed Experience and claims the award outright. Magenta wins with a score of 13Mbps, thanks to a sizable increase of 2.8Mbps (27.3%), while A1’s score remains statistically unchanged. Magenta now holds both awards for upload speeds, as it retains 5G Upload Speed Experience, with a score of 31.3Mbps — the only operator in Austria to exceed the 30Mbps mark.
A1 remains unmatched for both consistency awards
A1 takes home both Opensignal consistency awards for the third consecutive time in Opensignal mobile experience reports. A1 wins Excellent Consistent Quality (HD video, group video conference calls, and gaming) with a score of 89.9% and Core Consistent Quality (lower performance applications including SD video, voice calls, and web browsing) — with a score of 94.8%. It increases its lead over second-placed 3 for Excellent Consistent Quality award from 3.9 to 5.1 percentage points.
Magenta triumphs in Availability for the third consecutive time
Magenta wins Availability outright for the third time in a row. Our users on this network spend 98.6% of the time connected to either a 3G, 4G, or 5G signal — around 0.7 percentage points ahead of 3 and A1 which are statistically tied for second place. Looking at other coverage awards, both A1 and Magenta remain locked in statistical ties as joint winners for 5G Availability and 5G Reach.
Mobile Experience Awards
Market Overview
In Opensignal's current Austria Mobile Network Experience report, A1 is the most awarded network, as it remains the sole winner of four awards — Video Experience, Download Speed Experience and both consistency awards — and wins seven more jointly.
Magenta wins three awards outright — it retains 5G Upload Speed and Availability, while also seizing Upload Speed Experience. However, Magenta is no longer the outright winner for Games Experience and Voice App Experience, as A1 jumps onto the winners’ podium for both. A1 and Magenta jointly win seven awards, including 5G Video Experience and 5G Voice App Experience where we observe three-way statistical ties with 3. On top of these two shared victories, 3 remains unmatched for 5G Download Speed, as it secures this award for the fourth time in a row.
Austrian operators continue to develop 5G standalone access (SA) networks. 3 announced the commercial launch of SA services on all of its existing sites, initially covering 1.3 million homes and businesses. Meanwhile, A1 has been testing three component carrier aggregation with Nokia in a SA trial network — and reached peak download speed of 2Gbps with 160MHz of spectrum bandwidth, using two mid-band carriers in the 3.5GHz band and one carrier in the 2100MHz band.
In this report, we have analyzed the mobile network experience for Austria's three operators — 3, A1, and Magenta — over the 90 days starting December 1, 2022, and ending February 28, 2023, to see how they fared.
Overall Experience
National Analysis
A1 takes home Video Experience once again, with a score of 72 points on a 100-point scale — beating 3 and Magenta by 2.0-2.3 points, which are statistically tied for second place. All Austrian operators place in the Very Good (68-78) category, meaning our users are, on average, able to stream video at 1080p or better with satisfactory loading times and little stalling.
Our 5G users see no statistically significant difference between Austrian operators when it comes to the overall Video Experience. 3, A1, and Magenta are in a statistical tie for Video Experience — 5G Users, with scores of 71.5-73.4 points.
Video Experience scores account for adaptive bitrate streaming (ABR), a technology that allows Opensignal to accurately represent users’ real video experience including video streams up to 4K quality.
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
Due to an increase in its score of 5.7 points, A1 jumps on the winners’ podium for Games Experience and shares the award with the previous outright winner Magenta, with statistically tied scores in the 76.6-77.5 points range on a 100-point scale. 3 comes third, with a score of 72.9 points. The other two Austrian operators also see their scores rise since the last report — 3 gained 4.2 points, while Magenta — three points.
Thanks to improvements in their scores, A1 and Magenta move from the Fair (65-75) to the Good (75-85) category — most users deem the gaming experience acceptable and do not experience a delay between their actions and the game. Meanwhile, 3 remains in the Fair category.

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.
- Games Experience – 5G Users: The average Games 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 games experience along with the availability of each technology.

- 3G Games Experience: The average Games Experience of Opensignal users on an operator's 3G (e.g. UMTS/HSPA or CDMA 1X EV-DO) network.
National Analysis
Similar to Games Experience, Magenta is no longer the outright winner for Voice App Experience, as A1 forces a statistical tie against its rival. Both operators are now joint winners, with scores of 79.4-79.9 points on a 100-point scale. 3 brings up the rear with a score of 78.8 points. All operators observe increases in their scores, ranging from two points for Magenta to 2.7 points for A1.
3, A1 and Magenta retain Acceptable (74-80) ratings for Voice App Experience. This means some users are satisfied but others experience perceptible call quality impairments or hear clicking sounds of short duration or distortion. However, due to improvements in their scores, all Austrian operators are very close to moving to the higher category — Good (80-87). A1 and Magenta are only 0.1-0.6 points short of this rating, while 3 — 1.2 points.

Definitions
Upload Speed Experience measures the average upload speeds for each operator observed by our users across their mobile data networks. Typically upload speeds are slower than download speeds, as current mobile broadband technologies focus resources on providing the best possible download speed for users consuming content on their devices. As mobile internet trends move away from downloading content to creating content and supporting real-time communications services, upload speeds are becoming more vital and new technologies are emerging that boost upstream capacity.
In addition to Upload Speed Experience, we report on five supporting metrics related to upload speeds:
- 5G Upload Speed: The average upload speed observed by Opensignal users with active 5G connections.
- Upload Speed Experience – 5G Users: The average upload speeds experienced by Opensignal users with a 5G device and a 5G subscription across an operator’s networks. It factors in 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G upload speeds along with the availability of each technology.

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.
