Is Fios better than cable internet?

Fios is different from cable. It uses advanced network technology on a 100% fiber-optic network to deliver fast, reliable internet service, TV with amazing picture and sound quality, and crystal-clear digital voice calling to the home. For speed tiers up to 500 Mbps, Fios offers matching upload and download speeds, which makes posting high-res photos, videos and more online a breeze. And with Fios Gigabit Connection, you get blistering-fast speeds of up to 940/880 Mbps for streaming, gaming, and operating multiple devices at once. With bandwidth like that, it’s easy to understand why Fios has been the most awarded network for internet speed and TV service satisfaction for the past 10 years.
Does Xfinity have a fiber-optic network like Fios?

Not like Fios. Unlike other internet providers that use a combination of coaxial cable and fiber optics, Fios offers a 100% fiber-optic network. Verizon Fios launched in 2005 as one of the first internet providers to offer true “Fiber to the Home” (FTTH) internet services to residential customers. Many other providers use fiber-to-the-node (FTTN) connections, which use fiber cables to carry data to a hub close to your home and then switch to coaxial cables or copper wire for the last mile.
Is Fios better than Xfinity and other internet providers?
You decide. Both Fios and Xfinity serve large customer bases, but if award-winning proven performance, speed and reliability are your must-haves, Fios delivers. It’s the most awarded network for internet speed and customer satisfaction over the past 10 years. And that says a lot considering Verizon Fios serves millions of customers daily.
