1. A method comprising:

  • determining, by at least one processor, a signal strength for a wireless signal associated with a first wireless communication network;

    identifying, by the at least one processor, a plurality of factors that contribute to an user experience;

    identifying, by the at least one processor, a weight stored in a memory;

    identifying, by the at least one processor, a corresponding first factor of the plurality of factors;

    determining, by the at least one processor, a first set of measurements corresponding to the first factor, wherein the first set of measurements pertains to the user experience in connection with the first wireless communication network;

    determining, by the at least one processor, a first user experience indicator for the first wireless communication network based at least in part on the first set of measurements weighted according to the weight;

    determining, by the at least one processor, a second set of measurements corresponding to the first factor, wherein the second set of measurements pertains to the user experience in connection with a second wireless communication network;

    determining, by the at least one processor, a second user experience indicator for the second wireless communication network based at least in part on the second set of measurements weighted according to the weight;

    displaying, by a display device, the first user experience indicator to indicate the user experience with the first wireless communication network;

    displaying, by the display device, the second user experience indicator to indicate the second user experience in connection with the second wireless communication network;

    displaying a signal strength indicator to indicate the signal strength for the wireless signal, wherein;

    the signal strength indicator is based on the signal strength and a type of the first wireless communications network,the signal strength indicator is displayed in a same banner area as the first user experience indicator and the second user experience indicator, andthe plurality of factors are different than the signal strength and the type of the first wireless communications network;

    displaying, by the display device, a prompt for a selection of the first wireless communication network or the second wireless communication network; and

    selecting, based at least in part on an input associated with the prompt, the first wireless communication network.
