Apple iPhone vs Samsung Galaxy S24 vs S23 download speeds
Samsung Galaxy S24 vs S23 vs iPhone speed tests
Not only that, but the Samsung Galaxy 24 series scooped up the fastest download speeds and lowest latency criteria for the quality of 5G connectivity as well. Samsung has long been at the forefront of cellular connectivity among phones sold in the US, and the S24 delivers in spades.
Ookla’s key takeaways from the testing reveal a big 5G download speed bump for both the carrier networks, and the modern 5G flagships themselves:
- 5G speeds in the U.S. had an impressive showing across the board, with median 5G download speeds of at least 232.46 Mbps across all device families.
- The Samsung Galaxy S24 family led the way with an excellent median 5G download speed of 306.90 Mbps and the lowest median 5G multi-server latency at 45.71 ms.
- Users of the Galaxy S24 family enjoyed speeds roughly 75 Mbps faster than those on S22 models (232.46 Mbps) and approximately 65 Mbps faster than those on S23 devices (241.60 Mbps)
Apple, however, has now ditched the effort to create a 5G modem of its own as too complicated, and signed up a multi-year partnership with Qualcomm yet again. It also uses the Snapdragon X70 in its iPhones, and the 5G download tests here show that it is second in 5G connectivity command now, just after Samsung.
