Mechanism

Why it's so fast

The United Arab Emirates's figure is a fixed-broadband median download of 382.40 Mbps on the Speedtest Global Index updated August 2026. The table’s global row is 129.68 Mbps and 9 ms. A median of user tests is not a lab peak.

  1. Which table

    The same page also says a mobile table at 202.21 Mbps global download and 29 ms, and another table at 256.16 Mbps and 17 ms. The United Arab Emirates is ranked only on the 9 ms fixed-broadband table. Mixing those medians would change the order.

  2. The next published median

    Singapore leads the fixed table at 462.50 Mbps. The mobile table on the same page leads with the UAE at a different median. Only 382.40 is the figure here.

On the same table: Singapore.
