Countless parameters relating to sound quality, the reliability of data transfers and network coverage are measured and evaluated. A1 was successful in all of these categories and came in ahead of the number two – a German network operator – as well as the two Austrian competitors. The test emphasised the highest reliability, the short time it takes to establish a call and the excellent sound quality. In particular the fast and reliable data quality as well as the highest measured data speed of 96 Mbit/s were highlighted in the test.
