Google Mobile page speed scorecard
https://www.thinkwithgoogle.com/feature/mobile/
An easy-to-use tool that allows you to compare your mobile speed with other companies.
The Speed Scorecard shows the speeds of thousands of sites from 12 countries across the globe. It’s powered by Chrome User Experience Report, the largest database of real-user latency data for how Chrome users experience popular destinations on the web.
In addition to the scorecard Google have also introduced the Impact calculator. This provides a framework that reflects the work Google regularly undertake with mSEO teams to help quantify the business impact of making speed based changes to a mSite.

Webpagetest.org
Run a website speed test from multiple locations around the globe using real browsers (IE and Chrome) and at real consumer connection speeds. I recommend testing your site with the 1.5Mb 3G connection to replicate a typical mobile user. You can run simple tests or perform advanced testing including multi-step transactions, video capture, content blocking and much more.
Top Tip: If you wish to save all the waterfall images, you can export a HTTP Archive (.har) and view this data in full using a .HAR viewer like http://www.softwareishard.com/har/viewer/
