27-02-2024

One Albania's network receives maximum scores for voice calls, data, and application usage. One Albania's cellular network, the largest and most modern in Albania, with coverage stations nationwide, using Ericsson technology and ready for 5G, is awarded another assessment: that from Omnitele. The latter, a Finnish company, an independent consultant, internationally known for its extensive expertise in comparing cellular networks and field measurements, made public the results in February 2024. The combination of assets inherited from the merger of the two former operators and continuous investments during 2023 led to the increase in network capacities and resources, resulting in these outcomes for the company. The comprehensive assessment focuses on the performance of the major network operators in Albania, concentrating on measuring three components: voice call experience, data service experience, and application experience.

ONE Albania emerged as the cellular network with the best performance, achieving the highest results in all three components. Noteworthy is the achievement of the highest average speed of 143 Mbps in downlink and the fastest internet browsing access, averaging 1.9 seconds. The superiority of the network, tested by Omnitele, is undoubtedly a testament to the company's transparency and integrity towards its customers. The evaluation, conducted in various regions of Albania, including Tirana, 6 medium-sized cities, and 4 smaller ones in terms of population, confirmed ONE's continued superiority in service delivery. "The impressive results achieved in the latest comparative measurements by Omnitele, for network performance, are strong evidence that, thanks to continuous investments in expanding network capacities, a strategy to create the best conditions for user experience, and the dedication of our teams, we can compete and rank at the highest levels of service quality offered by the cellular network. Our contribution, as the leading telecommunications market operator in Albania, guarantees and ensures full confidence that One Albania network users will welcome and have a successful new tourist season" - said Ilir Duka, Chief Technology Officer, at One Albania.

Additionally, the company has the widest coverage of fixed-line network in the country, with around 6000 km of optical fiber (backbone and intercity network), and offers high-speed connections up to 1 Gbit/s through the fiber-to-home network, making the company an international leader in 4 products (4P - mobile network, fixed network, TV, and internet) in the market. The One Albania network, built on the highly reliable 4G+ cellular network, as well as on fiber infrastructure, is designed to keep subscribers connected with the best quality, with the people and what they love. One Albania remains committed to providing customers with services and solutions that have a positive impact on their daily lives.
