Fastest phone:)

Liquid — Tue, 30 Oct 2012 23:07:57 GMT

Ok I've done it again seen someone's post(Darrengf) and thought I'd continue it with a thread:)

I want to do a top 5 or 10 of the fastest connecting phones:)

Final target is to hopefully end up with a UK map with the average speed for the location. Be a great resource for new members too see what's available in the area:) status checker only tells us so much:)

Rules are;
1) You can only do it from your house(well trust you)
2) Three tests a 2g a 3G and a wifi (wifi is optional)
3) Use speed test app
4) Post the pictures for proof

5) Post your general location (e.g. I live in lower earley(specific area) I'd post reading(city) as my location)
6) Don't talk about phone club

Links for the speed test app;

iOS:

Android:

It will cost a small amount of data just prewarn anyone near their limits:)

Open to suggestions

Hi everyone, my Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 loads everything in the blink of an eye, don't need a speed test app to narrow it down any further! I live in Middlesex near Heathrow Airport & have never had a problem, so 3 cheers for 02!! 3.5G/H, 2G, wifi etc... are all strong signals & super quick. Or am I just being a boring old f*rt.....?? haha.
