Qatar continues to benefit from its early adoption of 5G

SpeedChecker, the mobile crowdsourcing company released a new report on the performance of mobile networks in Qatar. This report is part of an ongoing commitment from SpeedChecker to benchmark true user experience. The SpeedChecker report has been compiled using data from 48,017 unique mobile devices performing 72,043 tests in four weeks in October - November 2021.

Qatar continues to benefit from its early adoption of 5G with speeds continuing to increase as 5G becomes more widely available and with more customers using it. This is reflected in the continued increase in speeds. Our report shows that speeds have increased by 33% or more since our last report in May 2021 and 66% or more since our report 12 months ago. The table below shows the current speeds and the change since our previous report in May 2021.

Ooredoo customers are best placed to take advantage with 90% of populated areas being covered and Hamad Port is now the first 5G-enabled seaport in the Middle East with help from Ooredoo.

Ooredoo and Vodafone are clearly on track to ensure that the Qatar National Vision 2030 is a success. The full reports including data collection & measurement methodology can be found here: November 2021 and May 2021.
