contents In this work, we introduce a comprehensive statistical framework for assessing single-qubit quantum teleportation performance beyond the conventional average-fidelity benchmark. At first, we derive a closed-form expression for the full probability density function of actual teleportation fidelities and apply it to both classical measure-and-prepare schemes and standard quantum teleportation, considering two relevant noise models: Bell-diagonal resource states and local amplitude-damping channels. These results reveal that protocols with identical average fidelities can exhibit markedly different statistical behaviors, and that relying solely on average fidelity can mask inherent asymmetries introduced by local noise, potentially leading to spurious conclusions of symmetry. Secondly, we introduce a certification method based on prior importance functions (e.g., Beta distributions), which unifies moment-based criteria and threshold-based success probabilities into a single figure of merit. Applying this framework, we show that certifying high-fidelity teleportation requires increasingly stronger entanglement or non-locality, and we clarify that the so-called ``fighting noise with noise'' effect arises from the chosen prior importance function rather than representing a genuine advantage. Our approach thus provides versatile tools for tailored, application-specific teleportation benchmarks.
