当谈到愉快的互联网体验(internet experience)时，您的连接速度起着至关重要的作用。如果您只需要发送不带附件的电子邮件或进行一些文字聊天(text chat)，则速度可能会很低。但是，如果您需要在智能手机上流式传输音乐或视频(music or video)，您的要求将会增加。为了评估您在Windows 10 Mobile 智能手机(Mobile smartphone)上可用的互联网连接(internet connection)速度，我们开始测试几个应用程序，告诉您它有多快。此类应用程序可用于检查您的移动提供商或 Internet 服务提供商(provider or Internet Service Provider)( ISP ) 提供它所承诺的带宽。当您对数据连接问题进行故障排除时，它们也很有用。让我们看看哪些是在装有Windows 10移动版的智能手机上测试(Mobile)互联网连接(internet connection)速度的最佳免费应用程序：
1.网速测试
网络速度测试是(Network Speed Test)商店(Store)中最受欢迎和评价最高的应用程序之一 。该应用程序由Microsoft Research开发，将使用您的位置并访问(location and access)您的Internet 连接(internet connection)来测量您的下载速度(download speed)、上传速度和网络延迟(speed and network delay)。只需(Just)按开始并等待您的结果。
该应用程序还将运行一些额外的测试来测量 Max jitter 和 Packet loss等参数。 抖动(Jitter)被定义为接收数据包延迟的变化。网络拥塞(Network congestion)或配置不当会增加此延迟。另一方面， 当一个或多个通过计算机网络传输(computer network)的数据包未能到达其目的地 时，就会发生数据包丢失。(Packet loss)数据包丢失(Packet loss)通常是由网络拥塞(network congestion)引起的，它以丢失数据包相对于已发送数据包的百分比来衡量。虽然这些参数看起来有些高级，但它们可以帮助您选择合适的ISP。
如果您向右滑动，您将访问 包含有关您当前网络的信息 的网络屏幕，例如(network screen)连接类型(Connection type)、网络名称(Network name)、互联网状态和主机名。
这个应用程序的一件很酷的事情是它能够在历史屏幕中保存您过去的网络性能。(network performance)从您的网络屏幕再次向右滑动以访问它。(Swipe)一个缺点是历史记录并没有说明您在测试多个系统时使用的是哪个网络。
总体而言，该应用程序看起来不错，非常干净，易于理解且速度非常快。它可以证明是非常有用的，可以帮助您了解您的实际带宽。自己尝试并告诉我们您的想法。
2.Speedtest.net
另一个用于测试Internet 连接(Internet connection)速度的出色应用是Speedtest.net。为此，它被认为是商店中最准确的应用程序。它测量三个基本参数： Ping、下载和上传速度。与之前的应用程序相比， Speedtest.net 还提供了一些实时图表(time graphs)来证明您的网络一致性(network consistency)，而不仅仅是一个仅反映网络最大容量的数字。
该应用程序允许您跟踪过去的结果，但与 网络速度测试(Network Speed Test)不同，按下每个测试结果(test result)将打开测试的详细报告，让您在测试多个系统时区分网络。
这个应用程序非常受欢迎，不仅在Windows 设备上，而且它提供类似于 网络速度测试(Network Speed Test)的结果。它也很容易使用，而且看起来不错。它不测量最大抖动和丢包等参数，但我们认为这对普通用户来说不是一个主要缺点。试试这个应用程序，告诉我们你的想法。
3.速度检查器
SpeedChecker是另一个有趣的应用程序，用于测试您的网络速度。就像(Just)其他应用程序一样，它测量 Ping、下载和上传速度。与以前的应用程序相比，该测试需要更长的时间，但我们认为这不是一个重大缺点。
使用当前结果，应用程序将自动估计mp3文件(mp3 file)或视频文件的(video file)下载时间(download time)。
它允许您在历史记录屏幕中跟踪您以前的表现，它还创建图表来检查您的网络一致性(network consistency)，但与 Speedtest.net提供的图表不同，这些不是实时的。
该应用程序看起来不错，提供了大量统计数据，但我们发现奇怪的是结果与我们之前展示的应用程序有很大差异。自己试试这个应用程序，告诉我们你的想法。
4.免费测速
Free Speed Test是一个非常全面的应用程序，它提供的结果类似于 Network Speed Test 和 Speedtest.net。它测量下载和上传速度、网络延迟(network delay)以及抖动和数据包丢失(packet loss)。它像 Speedtest.net一样创建实时图表(time graphs) ，并测量用于运行测试的数据量。(data amount)
该应用程序会显示您之前的结果以及您的位置、日期和运行测试的时间。
这个应用程序的酷炫之处在于它允许您按最高速度查看国家排名、互联网提供商、制造商和手机的排名。
我们非常喜欢这个应用程序，我们强烈推荐它。它测量基本和高级参数，创建实时图表，提供准确的结果，并提供网络速度和互联网提供商的世界排名。我们不喜欢的是以前结果的显示方式和应用程序过时的设计。
5.速度测试
速度测试(Speed Test)相当基本，并且易于使用和理解。与其他应用程序类似，它测量 延迟(Latency)、下载和上传速度。
该应用程序还可以定位您的网络，并将其与坐标一起显示在地图上。
像往常一样，您可以查看您之前的测试结果，这些结果似乎与我们测试的大多数应用程序相似。历史记录显示网络的名称，以便您在测试多个网络时比较结果。
我们喜欢这个应用程序主要是因为它简单而美观的用户界面。任何人都可以使用它并理解它。如果您喜欢这个应用程序，请对其进行测试并告诉我们您的想法。
结论
我们展示的所有应用程序都非常易于任何类型的用户使用。由您来分析您的选择并选择最适合您的应用程序。尽管我们提供的所有应用程序都是可靠的， 但 Speedtest.net(Speedtest.net)、免费速度测试和网络速度测试是最好的。试试我们推荐的应用，告诉我们您喜欢哪一款。如果还有其他值得在我们的文章中提及的应用程序，请在下面的评论中分享。
How to test the speed of your internet connection in Windows 10 Mobile
When it comes to а рleasant internet еxperience, the speed of yоur connection plays a crucial role. The speed can be low if all you nеed is to send emails without attachments оr do some text chat. However, your requirements will increase if you need to stream music or video on yoυr smаrtрhone. In оrder to evaluаte the speed of thе internet connection that you have available on your Windows 10 Mobile smartphonе, we started testing several apps that tell уou how fast it is. Such apps can be used to check if your mobile provider or Internet Service Provider (ISP) provides the bandwidth that it has promised. Τhey are uѕeful also when you аre troubleѕhooting a problem with yоur data connection. Let's see whіch are the best frеe apps for testing the speed of your internet connection on smartphones with Wіndows 10 Mobile:
1. Network Speed Test
Network Speed Test is one of the most popular and high rated apps in the Store. Developed by Microsoft Research, the app will use your location and access your internet connection to measure your download speed, upload speed and network delay. Just press Start and wait for your result.
The app will also run some additional tests to measure parameters like Max jitter and Packet loss. Jitter is defined as a variation in the delay of received packets. Network congestion or improper configuration can increase this delay. On the other side, the Packet loss occurs when one or more packets of data travelling across a computer network fail to reach their destination. Packet loss is typically caused by network congestion and it is measured as a percentage of packets lost with respect to packets sent. Although these parameters may seem a little advanced, they can help you choose a suitable ISP.
If you swipe right, you will access the network screen containing information about your current network such as the Connection type, Network name, Internet status and Host name.
One cool thing about this app is the fact that it is able to save your past network performance in the history screen. Swipe right again from your network screen to get to it. One con is the fact that the history doesn't state which network you're using when testing multiple systems.
Overall, the app looks nice, it's really clean, easy to understand and quite fast. It can prove to be really useful, helping you get an idea of your real bandwidth. Try it by yourself and tell us what you think.
2. Speedtest.net
Another great app for testing the speed your Internet connection is Speedtest.net. It is believed to be most accurate app in the Store for this purpose. It measures three basic parameters: Ping, Download and Upload speed. In contrast to the previous app, Speedtest.net also offers some real time graphs to prove your network consistency, not just a number which only reflects the maximum capacity of your network.
The app allows you to track the past results, but unlike Network Speed Test, pressing each test result will open a detailed report of the test, allowing you to distinguish the network when testing multiple systems.
This app is quite popular, not only on Windows devices and it offers results similar to Network Speed Test. It's also really easy to use and it ooks nice. It doesn't measure parameters like Max jitter and Packet loss, but we don't think this is a major drawback for the casual user. Try this app and tell us what you think.
3. SpeedChecker
SpeedChecker is another interesting app for testing the speed of your network. Just like the other apps, it measures Ping, Download and Upload speed. The test takes a little longer compared to the previous apps but we don't think it's a significant shortcoming.
Using the current results the app will automatically estimate the download time for an mp3 file or a video file.
It allows you to track your previous performance in the History screen, and it also creates graphs to check for your network consistency, but unlike the graphs offered by Speedtest.net, these are not real-time.
The app looks good, provides a lot of statistics, but what we find weird is the fact that the results vary significantly from the previous apps we presented. Try this app by yourself and tell us what you think.
4. Free Speed Test
Free Speed Test is a quite comprehensive app and it offers results similar to Network Speed Test and Speedtest.net. It measures the download and upload speed and the network delay but also the jitter and the packet loss. It creates real time graphs just like Speedtest.net and it measures the data amount used to run the test.
The app displays your previous results along with your location, the date and the time you ran the test.
What's cool about this app is the fact that it allows you to view a ranking of countries by the top speed , a ranking of internet providers, manufactures and phones.
We like this app a lot and we strongly recommend it. It measures basic and advanced parameters, creates real-time graphs, provides accurate results and it offers world rankings of network speeds and internet providers. What we don't like is the way the previous results are displayed and the dated design of the app.
5. Speed Test
Speed Test is rather basic, as well as easy to use and understand. Similar to the other apps it measures the Latency, Download and Upload speed.
The app also locates your network, displaying it on a map along with its coordinates.
As usual, you can view your previous test results which seem to be similar to most of the apps we tested. The history displays the name of the network so you can compare the results when testing multiple networks.
We like this app mostly because of its simple and good looking user interface. Anyone can use it and understand it. If you like this app, test it and tell us what you think.
Conclusion
All the apps we presented are really easy to use by any type of user. It's up to you to analyze your options and choose the app that suits you the best. Although all the apps we presented are reliable, Speedtest.net, Free Speed Test and Network Speed Test are the best. Try the apps we suggested and tell us which one you like.
