Nexus One vs Iphone 3G Speedtest with youtube video

I did this speedtest using 3G here in Taipei,Taiwan. Every time the Iphone 3G was faster regardless of SIM card I used. Why is the Speedtest speed so low for the Nexus One?

Well, I believe is the software (firmware) issue at this moment. I am sure the later update may address this issue. I have a slow 3G connection when I first got my Nexus One. But I go in and forced my phone only connect on 3G only no Edge connection. Right after I did that setting. My 3G speed increased 80%. Before I perform the trick my 3G connection only getting about 489k/s the most. Now I can get up to between 780k/s to 1130k/s. I think what happen is the phone tries to switch between 3G and Edge internally in the phone. So it can't maximum the connection speed.

I did another test today and it seems to vary quite a bit with the Nexus One depending on location. The Iphone always seems to get good download numbers as where the Nexus One is either struggling to hold a 3G reception or get good download times.

This is on a 3G model too while the 3GS model is supposed to be even faster.
