If you’re in the market for a new iPhone, you’re spoiled for choice when it comes to networks now, but which is fastest? Our buddies at FoneHome have slipped SIM cards from all three networks offering the iPhone 3GS into Apple’s handset, stuck them side by side and pointed a camera in their direction. Which will win the ultimate iPhone speed test?
Fonehome popped an O2, Orange and Vodafone iPhone 3GS side by side for a few simple iPhone speed tests: searching YouTube, streaming video from YouTube and pinning down their position with Google Earth. It’s a practical test that has everyday relevancy. Watch the videos below to see which network came out on top.

It’s worth pointing out that signal strength will vary depending on where you are in the country, but FoneHome tested the iPhones side by side in Zone 2 of London. Not dead centre, but not out in the sticks either. All three phones had 3G signal (although we’re told the O2 SIM kept flitting from Edge to 3G in the run up to the test).
Whack the play buttons below to see the iPhone tests going down and check out the verdict: there’s a clear winner.
