Ubigi Voted Most Reliable eSIM for Mobile Professionals According to Latency Report 20251.12.2025 17:13:00 EET | Press release
Ubigi, a pioneer in eSIM solutions for travellers and connected professionals, has been ranked number one worldwide for connection quality according to the Latency Report 2025. This independent study evaluates eSIMs based on three key criteria: latency, jitter and packet loss. Thanks to its cutting-edge international network infrastructure, Ubigi has established itself as the benchmark for reliability for mobile professionals. Its architecture is based on seven Packet Gateways (P-GWs) spread across Europe, Asia and the Americas, allowing data to transit through the Internet point closest to the user. The result: latency reduced by a factor of two to five depending on the area and optimal stability for video conferencing, VPN and cloud services. Ubigi's performance, validated by the Latency Report 2025, stands out: Average latency: 35 ms in Europe, 92 ms in Asia; Jitter: only 5 ms; Packet loss: < 0.2%, one of the best reliability ratings measured.
