This consistency score indicates that 97.3 per cent of Speedtest Intelligence samples on Malaysia’s 5G networks exceeded the consistency threshold, which is currently set at a minimum download speed of 25 Mbps and a minimum upload speed of 3 Mbps.

In comparison, other top countries like North Macedonia and the United Arab Emirates reported lower consistency scores of 94.1 per cent and 93.9 per cent, respectively. Regarding 5G availability, Ookla notes that Malaysia’s availability has increased to 27.0 per cent in 4Q 2023 from 21.0 per cent in 1Q.
