Backed by 35 consecutive J.D. Power awards and RootMetrics recognition for Best, Fastest and Most Reliable 5G Network

NEW YORK, NY – In an industry filled with competing claims, Verizon continues to stand above the rest. While others may highlight specific metrics or short-term reports, Verizon's wireless network performance is a matter of consistent, long-term leadership. Our unmatched track record of 35 consecutive J.D. Power awards for Network Quality and consistently delivering the RootMetrics best 5G experience and RootScore Award for best overall network performance in more than 100 cities tested across the country demonstrate that customers can always count on Verizon to deliver.

Why Verizon's Network is in a Class of Its Own

Verizon doesn’t just win awards; it sets the standard for what a network should be. Verizon’s focus on reliability, security, and nationwide coverage means customers are not only getting the best speeds but also a network they can depend on, wherever life takes them.
