umlaut tested and measured the performance of its voice
services on smartphones in comparison to other LTE/
UMTS/GSM mobile radio networks in metropolitan and
rural areas of Greece.
The audit was done as a performance benchmark
performed by umlaut between 07.02.2020 and 25.2.2020
in cities and towns as well as on connection roads.
Dedicated measurements have been executed as drive
tests outdoors using a Samsung Galaxy S9 (G960FDS)

Voice measurements have been done in 4G/4G preferred
mode on both sides, while call origin has been alternated.
The following pages provide a comparative overview ab-
out the performance results observed for the
different tested service types.

Methodology.
The leader in mobile benchmarking, umlaut, has analyzed
the mobile networks of Greece with regards to mobile
network performance. We measure smartphone voice
performance based on extensive drivetests – from major
metropolitan areas to smaller cities and connection roads.
We objectively define the routes and test methodology
and publish the results through certificates or public
benchmark reports.
As the de-facto industry standard, our benchmarking
methodology focuses on customer-perceived network
quality and covers a wide range of mobile services.
Today, more than 200 mobile networks in more than
120 countries are being evaluated by our unique scoring
methodology. It allows a technical analysis that is unpre-
cedented in its level of detail and enables comparisons
between the network performance and capability of each
mobile network. Our public benchmarks as well as the
certificate benchmarks help network operators to demon-
strate how well they are delivering wireless connections to
consumers, business users and enterprises and reveals the
areas of improvement.
