We measure real data
Subscriber experience is the ultimate benchmark. That experience doesn’t happen in the infrastructure, it happens on the device. Testing must reflect that reality.
Mobile Experience tests true, unmodified, physical devices, including iPhones. It replicates exactly what a subscriber experiences under real network conditions.
