Rogers Edges Bell and Telus for ‘Best’ 5G Network in 2024: Study

Rogers has been ranked as the most reliable wireless network in Canada by Germany-based umlaut, once again.
Out of a total 1,000 perfect score representing voice, data and crowdsourcing, Rogers scored 894, Bell was at 871 and Telus at 856. Last year, scores were at 889, 874, and 859, respectively. Rogers went up 5 points versus last year, while Bell and Telus went down 3 points overall.
“As the operator of Canada’s largest wholly-owned 5G network, we continually invest in our networks to bring the best experience to our customers,” said Ron McKenzie, Chief Technology & Information Officer, Rogers, in a statement on Tuesday. “We are extremely proud to be recognized by umlaut as having the best, most reliable wireless network in the country. This recognition further reinforces Rogers longstanding leadership as Canada’s largest and most reliable 5G network.”
This marks the sixth straight year Rogers has won the “Best in Test” study by benchmarking firm Umlaut, a subsidiary of Accenture. The test took place by driving across Canada with a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, measuring voice and data, with 48 measurement days taking place over 24 weeks.
The 2021 ‘Best in Test’ study was commissioned by Rogers (which it won), while last year’s was not, and it looks like 2024 was not either as it is not disclosed in the study.
Rogers says its 5G network now covers over 2,300 communities across Canada, while it has also invested over $40 billion in its networks over the past 10 years.

Where’s freedom? Videotron, EastLink or Sasktel?
Even an “other”
How or why would bell aand Tellus differ when they use the same network?
Maybe one day they'll start testing out in the country, or wherever conditions are less than ideal.
Let see what differentiate them, not the "430 vs. 402 vs. 396" people will never notice in real life.
