1. A method for providing an accurate signal icon, comprising:
receiving, by a user equipment (UE), from a network, network downlink measurements;
measuring, by the UE, downlink metrics and uplink metrics;
calculating, by the UE, a UE signal experience score based on the downlink metrics and the uplink metrics; and
presenting the UE signal experience score on the UE as a numerical value, wherein the numerical value is an indication of a maximum experience possible for the UE based on the downlink metrics and the uplink metrics.
