Samsung have fast Internet Explorer more than iPhone

he company took measurements from 23 million
devices worldwide in Q2 2019 and found that
Samsung phones in the US get downloads that are
8.2Mbps faster than iPhone speeds. Samsung
devices clock in at 28Mbps, while iPhones average
20Mbps in the US.
"Given that Samsung makes a wide range of
models from cheap to premium, while Apple only
offers premium-priced models, this is an even
more impressive result," OpenSignal notes in its
report.
Mobile download speeds overall are slower in the
US than much of Europe. In Norway, Samsung
users experience download speeds of 58Mbps
compared with 46Mbps for iPhones.

OpenSignal isolates 'high-tier' phones – a term
applied to the mobile network experience – across
the 40 countries included in the data survey.
Samsung, Apple and Huawei users get download
speeds of 26.6Mbps, 25.1Mbps, and 24.4Mbps,
respectively.

While Samsung appears to outperform Apple at the
high-end, Apple's mid-tier devices, including the
iPhone XR, X, 8, 7, and 6s, have faster download
speeds than equivalents from Samsung and
Huawei, which include the Samsung M40, A80,
A6s, and the Huawei P30 Lite, Enjoy 9e, and Y6.
The company found that just 14% of iPhone
devices in use are classified as 'high tier' –
employing LTE category 16 or above – suggesting
Apple invests more in other technologies, whereas
all flagships from Samsung and Huawei feature
gigabit-capable modems.
"Apple's challenge is that few of its current models
are high-tier devices when we group iPhone
models based on their mobile network experience
capabilities," writes OpenSignal.

"In our measurements, just 14% of Apple users are
high tier. Instead, Apple has chosen to focus its
handset designs on other capabilities such as
facial recognition, camera innovation, long battery
life, and extremely fast application processors and
graphics using Apple's in-house silicon designs.
That situation could change in the coming years as
Apple develops its 5G strategy. Apple's new
iPhone models to be launched 2020 are expected
to feature 5G. However, one analyst believes that
Apple's acquisition of Intel's 5G modem business
will allow it to introduce 5G in its lower-end iPhone
models to compete with cheaper Android
handsets.
Despite high-end phones featuring gigabit
technology, no one in the world experiences
anything close to gigabit-per-second download
speeds.

class of device is South Korea, where users
experience average download speeds of
70.6Mbps, followed by Canada where the average
is 67.1Mbps. In the US, the average is 31.6Mbps.
Download speeds for smartphones from the top
three makers vary widely, but on average
Samsung comes out ahead of Apple and Huawei.
