Key Findings
U Mobile users enjoy the fastest overall speeds in Malaysia
U Mobile jumps into the lead for both overall speed awards — Download Speed Experience and Upload Speed Experience. For Download Speed Experience, U Mobile wins with a score of 39.4Mbps — an incredible increase of 21.2Mbps (115.7%) since the last report, when it placed last. U Mobile also wins Upload Speed Experience outright with its score of 9.9Mbps — due to its smaller, but still impressive, boost in score of 2Mbps (25.8%) between reports.
The most consistent experience is with Unifi
Unifi wins the Consistent Quality award outright with a score of 67.2%, 4.8 percentage points above second-placed Digi’s score of 62.4%. Maxis, U Mobile, Yes and Celcom finish third, fourth, fifth and last place, respectively. Consistent Quality is a measure of how sufficient the network is in supporting common mobile application requirements at a level that is ‘good enough’ for users to maintain (or complete) various typical demanding tasks on their devices.
Unifi takes home the Live Video Experience award and shares Video Experience with Digi
Unifi adds Live Video Experience to its awards haul, winning it outright with a score of 54.7 points on a 100-point scale. This means Unifi places in the Very Good (53-58) category for Live Video Experience, the only Malaysian operator to do so this time around — the other five operators place one category lower, in Good (43-53). Unifi also now shares the Video Experience award with Digi due to their statistically tied scores of 60.5-60.8 points. Video Experience award was won by Maxis in the previous report.
Celcom keeps hold of its overall Games Experience award and steps onto the podium for 5G Games Experience
Celcom retains its outright win for overall Games Experience with a score of 71.7 points, although its lead over second place has shrunk between reports. Celcom’s lead has decreased from 3.2 points ahead of Maxis in the last report, to around 1.6 points ahead of statistically tied Maxis and Unifi this time around. In addition, Celcom now joins Digi in sharing the 5G Games Experience award with their statistically tied scores of 89.3-89.7 points. All five operators rate as Excellent (85 or above) for 5G Games Experience.
U Mobile steams ahead for 5G Availability
U Mobile soars into the lead for 5G Availability, with its score of 31.9% meaning that our U Mobile users with a 5G device spend almost a third of their time with an active 5G connection. Yes, which won the award outright in the previous report, now shares second place with Unifi due to statistically level scores. However, Yes does manage to hold on to its outright win for overall Availability — winning the award for a fourth consecutive time.
Mobile Experience Awards
Market Overview
A lot has changed in this Opensignal report on the mobile network experience in Malaysia. Unifi now shares the largest award tally, alongside Digi. Both operators win a total of seven awards — five shared and two outright. Digi notably comes first for all but one 5G experiential award, only missing out on 5G Upload Speed, while Unifi manages first place finishes in both new Live Video Experience awards and Consistent Quality.
U Mobile’s explosive increase in average download speed is noteworthy — the operator’s 5G Download Speed has shot up 63.3%, while its overall Download Speed Experience has more than doubled at 115.7%. These two outright wins, in addition to one shared win for 5G Download Speed, an outright win for 5G Availability and a win for 5G Coverage Experience shared by all operators apart from Maxis, take U Mobile’s total to five awards. Celcom likewise wins five awards, while Yes holds on to Availability and shares 5G Coverage Experience — Maxis finishes empty handed.
As of mid August 2023, Maxis has finally commercially launched its 5G service in Malaysia after signing the access agreement with national wholesale provider Digital Nasional Berhad (DNB). Maxis is the last Malaysian operator to launch 5G, with Yes, Celcom, Unifi, U Mobile and Digi all launching in 2022. We have not included Maxis in the 5G rankings this time around, but its 5G measurements do contribute to the overall experience scores.
The Government of Malaysia has announced that it will allow a second 5G network in the country — with a plan to introduce one from January 2024, contingent on DNB reaching 80% population coverage. The original single network deployment faced industry concern over monopolies and pricing, and the proposal of a second network has been received positively by Malaysian operators.
For more insight on how the Malaysian 5G experience has evolved over time and the effect that this has had on our mobile users in the country, check out this recent Opensignal analysis on the impact of 5G on the Malaysian mobile experience.
In this report, we've analyzed the mobile network experience of all our users in Malaysia across six major networks — Celcom, Digi, Maxis, U Mobile, Unifi and Yes — over the period of 90 days between June 1, 2023, and August 29, 2023, to see how they stack up on different aspects of mobile experience.
Overall Experience
National Analysis
Digi and Unifi now step onto the winners’ podium for the overall Video Experience award — replacing Maxis, which won the award outright in the previous report. Digi and Unifi win with statistically tied scores of 60.5-60.8 points on a 100-point scale — around 1.1 points ahead of third-placed Maxis. U Mobile, Celcom and Yes are in fourth, fifth and sixth, respectively.
Digi, Maxis, U Mobile and Unifi rate as Good (58-68) for Video Experience, while Celcom and Yes rate as Fair (48-58).
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
Unifi is the first winner of the overall Live Video Experience award in Malaysian mobile network experience reports. The operator wins the award with a score of 54.7 points on a 100-point scale — Maxis is 2.5 points behind Unifi, in second place.
Unifi places in the Very Good (53-58) category for Live Video Experience, while the other five operators place one category lower — Good (43-53). A Very Good rating means that our users are, on average, able to stream video at least at 720p or 1080p with low loading times, little stalling and a satisfactory live offset.

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.
- 4G Games Experience: The average Games Experience of Opensignal users on an operator's 4G network.
- 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
U Mobile snatches the overall Upload Speed Experience award away from previous winner Celcom. U Mobile wins with a score of 9.9Mbps — 0.7Mbps (7.2%) ahead of Digi, which now takes second place. Users on all six operators have seen an increase in average upload speed between reports, with the relative changes ranging from 5.8% (0.5Mbps) for Celcom to 52% (2.2Mbps) for Unifi.
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.
- 4G Upload Speed: The average uplink speed observed by Opensignal users when they were connected to 4G.

Definitions
The Opensignal Coverage Experience metric measures the extent of mobile networks in the places people live, work and travel. The metric represents the experience users receive as they travel around areas where they would reasonably expect to find coverage.
Traditional coverage metrics typically estimate either a percentage of land area covered, or a percentage of population covered; often neither will be an accurate measurement of the true user expectation and experience. In many markets there are areas where neither population density nor geographic area reflect the importance of coverage to users. For example, in a large mountain range most users will not expect coverage in the wilderness, but poor coverage in the relatively small area of a ski resort is critical for the enjoyment of a holiday. Estimates based purely on population give undue significance to coverage in the most densely populated areas.
Coverage Experience measures geographic coverage of populated areas and therefore more accurately reflects the coverage expectations and experience of typical users. It can give a result that is somewhat different to traditional estimates based on either geographic or population measures. The metric uses a scale from 0 to 10.
5G Coverage Experience shows the proportion of places Opensignal users with a 5G device and a 5G subscription had an active 5G connection.
Map Definition

Yes manages to hold on to its outright win for overall Availability — winning the award for a fourth consecutive time with a near perfect score of 99%. This means that users on Yes’ network proportionally spend 99% of their time with a 3G or better connection. U Mobile is 0.8 percentage points lower in second place, and all six Malaysian national operators score above 95%.
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.

Consistency
National Analysis
Unifi is the first Malaysian operator to win the newly introduced Consistent Quality award — which replaces Excellent Consistent Quality and Core Consistent Quality. Unifi wins the award with a score of 67.2%, 4.8 percentage points above second-placed Digi’s score of 62.4%. Maxis, U Mobile, Yes and Celcom finish third, fourth, fifth and last place, respectively. Consistent Quality is a measure of how sufficient the network is in supporting common mobile application requirements at a level that is ‘good enough’ for users to maintain (or complete) various typical demanding 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.
