CINCINNATI, OH — So far this year, the Verizon Wireless network has outperformed the competition in 22 major U.S. markets, including Cincinnati, in the categories of Combined Performance and Data Performance, according to the wireless testing company, RootMetrics™.

“Customers in Cincinnati who are looking for lightning fast wireless data service don’t have to look any further,” said Mark Frazier, president–Ohio/Pennsylvania/West Virginia Region. “We are committed to delivering a superior network experience to our customers in Cincinnati and across the country. Once again, a respected third-party study highlights the benefits of our ongoing network investments for our customers.”

RootMetrics’ RootScore™ Reports highlight data, call, text and overall performances of the major wireless carriers’ networks in a specific geographical area. To evaluate the networks in each specific market, a team of RootMetrics employees conducts tests during a seven-day period, covering all hours of the day and night. Using current off-the-shelf smartphones available to the public at the time of testing, the evaluation focuses on popular consumer activities, including making phone calls, uploading and downloading files from the Internet, and sending and receiving texts in an effort to reflect the consumer experience in a specific geographical area.

“More and more, consumers are relying on wireless devices to communicate and stay up to date with friends, family and business. To do that, consumers must have a network they can rely on,” said Bill Moore, chief executive officer of RootMetrics. “Our goal is to provide consumers with a true picture of the major carriers’ network performance and empower them to make educated decisions about the best carrier for their mobile habits.”

Over the past six months, in addition to Cincinnati, RootMetrics has bestowed its RootScore Combined Performance and Data Performance awards upon Verizon Wireless in Atlanta; Boston; Chicago; Cleveland; Dallas; Denver; Houston; Los Angeles; Miami; Minneapolis; New York City; Philadelphia; Phoenix; Pittsburgh; Portland, Ore.; Riverside-San Bernardino, Calif.; Sacramento, Calif.; San Francisco; San Jose, Calif.; St. Louis; and Washington, D.C.

Introduced to Cincinnati in December 2010, Verizon Wireless’ 4G LTE network is the fastest and most reliable 4G network in the country. The company’s unrivaled deployment of its 4G LTE network makes it the largest 4G LTE network in the nation, with coverage in more than 140 cities.
