Key Findings
Entel holds onto both 5G speed awards
Entel remains the only Chilean operator to win the 5G Download Speed and 5G Upload Speed awards, since their addition in the August 2022 report. Entel wins 5G Download Speed this time around with a score of 182.6Mbps — 20.1Mbps (12.4%) faster than second-placed Movistar’s 162.5Mbps. Entel comes top for 5G Upload Speed with a score of 26.8Mbps — 4.4Mbps (19.4%) faster than the average 5G upload speeds seen by our users on second-placed WOM (22.4Mbps).
WOM 5G users spend the most time connected to 5G
WOM remains unbeaten on 5G Availability — the proportion of time that our 5G users spend with an active 5G connection. It wins the 5G Availability award in this report with an impressive score of 34.6% — more than double second-placed Movistar’s 17.2%. However, our Entel users have seen the largest improvement since the last report, with their score rising by 5.5 percentage points to 13.2%, while our WOM and Movistar users’ scores have risen by 2.3 and 1.5 percentage points, respectively.
WOM and Entel users have the best overall experience when streaming live videos
WOM and Entel are the first Chilean operators to win Opensignal’s new Live Video Experience award, sharing it with statistically tied scores of 47.4-47.9 points on a 100-point scale. Live Video Experience quantifies the quality of real-time video streamed to mobile devices by measuring video streams over an operator's network — across all mobile network generations. Switching to 5G Live Video Experience, Entel is the sole winner with a score of 62 points.
Entel wins the Voice App Experience award outright
Our Entel users have the best overall experience when using over-the-top voice apps in Chile. This is a change from the previous report, when Claro, Entel and WOM shared the award with statistically tied scores of 74.1-74.6 points on a 100-point scale. However, Entel has gone from winning the 5G Voice App Experience award outright to sharing it with Movistar, given their tied scores of 82.9-83 points.
Mobile Experience Awards
Market Overview
Entel continues to dominate the awards table. This time around, it wins nine awards outright and shares the winners’ podium across two categories. Our Entel users continue to observe the fastest average 5G speeds in Chile and the operator comes top for Consistent Quality (which replaces the Excellent Consistent Quality and Core Consistent Quality awards from previous reports).
WOM has the next largest haul of awards — it retains its outright wins for Download Speed Experience, Upload Speed Experience and 5G Availability from the previous report, along with its joint win alongside Movistar for the Availability award. In addition, WOM shares the new Live Video Experience award with Entel.
Entel announced in June 2023 that it will start to shut down its 2G network starting from mid-2024. From August 2023, it will cease marketing its 2G services. The operator states that this will improve its use of spectrum, along with users’ browsing experience and the energy efficiency of its operations.
Chilean telecoms regulator Subtel (Subsecretaria de Telecomunicaciones) has requested that operators that wish to stop using 2G provide it with details of how the shutdown process will be carried out and the measures they will take to reduce its impact on users. The regulator notes that there were just over 203,000 devices connected to 2G networks at the end of March 2023 in Chile.
In April, Subtel gave Claro provisional authorisation to use some of its 3.5GHz spectrum — previously issued only for fixed wireless services — for commercial 5G mobile services. However, Subtel requires Claro to submit technical plans — similar to those provided by the operators that obtained their 3.5GHz via the 2021 auction — before it can launch 5G commercial services on the 3.5 GHz band. Claro must also provide Subtel with an investment plan to roll out 5G to unserved or underserved locations.
In this report we examine the mobile network experience of the four main mobile network operators in Chile: Claro, Entel, Movistar and WOM, over a period of 90 days starting May 1, 2023 and ending July 29, 2023, to see how they fared. We have used 5G measurements in addition to those from previous generations of mobile network technology when determining the overall scores for each award. We will include Claro's 5G experience in a future report, once Claro's 5G service has launched commercially and is sufficiently established.
Overall Experience
National Analysis
Our Entel users have the best overall experience when streaming on-demand video over mobile connections. Entel therefore wins the Video Experience award, doing so with a score of 58.7 points on a 100-point scale. It wins outright for the second time in a row and this time around commands a lead of 2.1 points over second-placed WOM’s score of 56.6 points.
In addition to winning the award outright, Entel is the only Chilean operator to place in the Good (58-68) category for Video Experience, as its rivals earn Fair (48-58) ratings instead. A Good Video Experience indicates that our users are, on average, able to stream video at 720p or better with satisfactory loading times and little stalling. Placing in the Fair category means that users observed substantial stalling instead of little stalling.

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.

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
Entel comes top for Voice App Experience, which measures the overall experience our users when using over-the-top (OTT) voice apps. This is a change from the last report, when Claro, Entel and WOM shared the award with statistically tied scores of 74.1-74.6 points on a 100-point scale. Entel wins this time around with a score of 76.5 points on a 100-point scale, while Movistar and WOM aren’t far behind with statistically tied scores of 76-76.1 points. Claro brings up the rear with 72.4 points, making it the only Chilean operator to place in the Poor (66-74) category, as its rivals earn Acceptable (74-80) ratings instead.
Placing in the Acceptable category means that some of our users are satisfied with their experience while using OTT voice apps. However, perceptible call quality impairments are experienced by some users. Clicking sounds of short duration or distortion are heard, and/or the volume may not be sufficiently loud. Listeners are generally able to comprehend without repetition.

This is the sixth report in a row in which WOM wins the Upload Speed Experience award outright. It does so this time with a score of 11.4Mbps — the average overall upload speeds observed by our WOM users across all generations of mobile technology. This gives WOM a lead of 1.5Mbps over second-placed Entel’s score of 9.9Mbps. Movistar is in third place with 9Mbps, while Claro is in last place with 7.1Mbps.
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.

National Analysis
Movistar and WOM remain locked in a statistical tie for the Availability award. The two operators have been joint winners for this award for three reports in a row — the last time it was won by a single operator was in the March 2022 report, when WOM was the victor. Availability is the proportion of time all our users on an operator’s network have either a 3G, 4G or 5G connection. Movistar and WOM come top with tied scores of 98.6-98.7%, while Entel is in third place with 98.2% and Claro places last with 97.6%.
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.

WOM is in last place with 52.7%. Consistent Quality replaces the Excellent Consistent Quality and Core Consistent Quality awards from previous reports. It measures if the network is sufficient to support common mobile application requirements at a level that is ‘good enough’ for users to maintain (or complete) various demanding typical tasks on their devices.
Definitions
Consistent Quality measures if the network is sufficient to support common mobile application requirements at a level that is ‘good enough’ for users to maintain (or complete) various typical tasks on their devices.
We combine different experience indicators such as download speed, upload speed, latency, jitter, packet discard, and time to first byte to calculate Consistent Quality. These components are evaluated against thresholds recommended by various more demanding common applications used for a range of common tasks.
To calculate the metric value, the proportion of tests that pass the requirements of Consistent Quality is multiplied by the test success ratio, which is the proportion of completed tests to all tests conducted. Tests that pass indicate that activities such as video calling, uploading an image to social media, or using smart home applications will be possible without noticeable lag or slowdown.

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.
