KL's 5G download and upload speeds are faster than Auckland, Singapore and Taipei. But the network still lags behind in 5G video experience and availability.

in June, Malaysia has the second highest 5G download speeds and the highest for 5G uploads.

As pointed out by Opensignal, one of the reasons why Kuala Lumpur is ranked on top is due to the current 5G situation in Malaysia where the big four telcos such as Celcom, Digi, Maxis and U Mobile are5G Single Wholesale Network. YTL Communications’ Yes 5G remains the first and only telco in Malaysia to offer commercial 5G services to consumers. As a result, DNB is running with fewer users and a much lighter load than most 5G networks in other Asia Pacific cities.

When comparing 5G versus 4G, Kuala Lumpur records the biggest difference at 19 times improvement for download speeds. This shouldn’t come as a surprise as Opensignal recorded an average download of 16-17Mbps for major 4G networks in MalaysiaSince Malaysia only started its 5G rollout late last year, coverage is still rather limited with a recorded 5G availability of 10.9% in Kuala Lumpur. This means a typical 5G subscriber would be connected to 4G almost 90% of the time in Kuala Lumpur.
