Average Internet Speed in Hong Kong

Internet in Hong Kong: what the data shows

At a median 54.2 Mbps download, Hong Kong sits in the upper half of the table: #31 of 119 ranked countries, 60% above the global median of 33.9 Mbps. The world's fastest median belongs to the United States at 144 Mbps, about 2.6× faster.

The median upload is 33.8 Mbps, about 62% of the download rate: the balance typical of a market mixing fibre with cable or DSL plans. Median latency is 97 ms. That is on the high side: pages and video still load, but calls, gaming and screen sharing carry a visible delay.

Netvigator tops the measured providers at 106 Mbps, about 2× the national median, so switching networks can matter as much as switching plans.

Desktops test faster than phones here (84 vs 35 Mbps): home Wi-Fi and wired links outrun the mobile networks that carry 58% of tests. By operating system, Windows devices record the quickest median (87 Mbps) while Android sits at 34 Mbps, usually a proxy for the networks and hardware each platform rides on rather than the software itself.

Tests from Hong Kong most often reached the Singapore test server (66% of the top-server mix), so the figures reflect the routes everyday traffic actually takes. Every number on this page is a median of single-stream browser tests from the H1 2026 window: Real-World Speed, measured on the open internet rather than inside an ISP's own network. It reads lower than peak-rate tests by design, and every country is measured with the same ruler.
