Your Speed - HSDPA / 3G

With 3G / HSDPA becoming the norm. It would be interesting to see what people get in terms of speed, from what phone with what service.

To test your speed goto http://www.dslreports.com/mspeed on your phone. Select the 100k.. It'll normally say it was to fast and give you a selected to choose a larger file size. Do that and select the 1MB one.

So List the following:

Mobile Phone:
Operator:
Price Plan / Cost:
Location:
Speed:


Mine:

Mobile Phone: HTC Diamond Touch
Operator: Orange UK
Price Plan / Cost: 1050 mins - 500 texts - Unlimited Data. £35/m
Location: Chester
Speed: 1421 kbit/sec

Re: Your Speed - HSDPA / 3G

The results might be slightly misleading. Throughput will depend a lot on how strong the field is, and it can also be affected by how many other people are using HSDPA in the same cell at the same time.
