What amazes me about Israel's case is that not only is it the cheapest in the world, it's also one the fastest and they have some of the most generous unlimited data plans.

Re: Countries With Most Affordable Data Prices Per 1 Gigabyte by SeverusSnape(m): 1:04pm On Aug 17
Nigeria own 1GB na scam, The burn rate is outrageous.
Re: Countries With Most Affordable Data Prices Per 1 Gigabyte by SatanIsAllah: 1:13pm On Aug 17
$0.02 per 1gb is N27 per 1gb.

200gb of data in Israel will cost you N5,400. And we're talking high speed broadband Internet.

It's almost worth japaing to Israel just for quality Internet service alone.

Can't one buy data in Israel and sell in Nigeria? Is that possible?
Re: Countries With Most Affordable Data Prices Per 1 Gigabyte by BlackViper(op): 2:28pm On Aug 17
That's an idea, but I don't think Nigerian service providers will allow it because it will spoil market for them.

Re: Countries With Most Affordable Data Prices Per 1 Gigabyte by dustmalik(m): 3:13pm On Aug 17
You guys like to deceive yourselves with nonsense stats. Go to Europe, India and North Africa and see how cheap data is. In most parts of Europe, you get unlimited 1Gbps fibre for less than 30 euros. In Portugal and Spain, you get unlimited 10Gbps for 15 Euros, which is less than 30k naira. In Nigeria, the cheapest fibre connectivity around is by MTN and Airtel, and you get 25-30k for measly 50Mbps. MTN's 1Gbps fibre goes for 200K per month, which is ridiculous.

Re: Countries With Most Affordable Data Prices Per 1 Gigabyte by telim:
This stats is 100% rubbish. There is no were in this world were you will get 1gb above 1 usd.

The most expensive location for unlimited 4g/5g dedicated modem mobile plans is USA and you get them between 70 to 80 usd per month. This are modems connected with sims from tmobile, verison and AT and T. The rest countries you get then for less than 60 usd per month.

You can use this modems and download over 500gb per month.

For residential proxies you pay per gb. If you buy from the source you wil pay less than 1usd per gb and between 0.9 to 4 usd depending on the amount of purchased gb from resellers.

Interesting news here. Data is more expensive in Switzerland than Nigeria, how ever, I think they enjoy free WiFi networks

Re: Countries With Most Affordable Data Prices Per 1 Gigabyte by Worryingly: 3:56pm On Aug 17
OP, I can assure you that what we call 1GB in Nigeria, especially with MTN Is probably 400-500mb.

I'm almost certain

Re: Countries With Most Affordable Data Prices Per 1 Gigabyte by Angelfrost(m): 4:02pm On Aug 17
Lol... Canada's minimum wage is about 1950 USD. Compare that to their data cost of about 4 USD.

Nigeria's minumum wage (in USD) is about 57 USD. Compare that to 0.38 USD data cost per gigabyte.


...Yet, someone claims data is cheaper in Nigeria. grin

Re: Countries With Most Affordable Data Prices Per 1 Gigabyte by nybol(m): 4:16pm On Aug 17
Not accurate sir,

most phone plans in US allow you make unlimited calls and texts to US and Canada plus unlimited data, only that the speed may reduce from 5g to 4g after you reach a threshold, but you sef wont even notice the change.

They also have free wifi in lots of places, libraries, hospitals, coffee shops, etc.

Re: Countries With Most Affordable Data Prices Per 1 Gigabyte by Fred2020: 4:21pm On Aug 17
How can data be more affordable in Nigeria than in the UK?

ยฃ20โ€“ยฃ25 a month can easily get you unlimited broadband in the UK. Compared with the average hourly wage, that is barely two hours of work even on minimum wage, and you can tether multiple devices to it.

Better still you don't even have to pay the hardware and connection cost
Re: Countries With Most Affordable Data Prices Per 1 Gigabyte by StrangeListing(m): 4:23pm On Aug 17
While seeing Nigeria ranked 13th globally at $0.38 per gigabyte looks cheap on paper, the real issue is our purchasing power and the value of the Naira relative to the minimum wage. When you calculate how fast data drains while streaming 15-second videos on social media, $0.38 becomes a massive expense for the average citizen. In this economy, if you are just using your data to scroll and consume content without finding automated ways to monetize your screen time or earn back in stable currency, you are simply burning cash. The data providers are the only ones winning.
Re: Countries With Most Affordable Data Prices Per 1 Gigabyte by geoworldedu: 4:27pm On Aug 17
Omorr, we don suffer for Naija o. Imagine how much an average Nigeria is earning monthly to be able to cough out such amount for 1 gig only which won't even last you at all.

Nigerian minimum wage is $43 while USA minimum wage is $1700. The distance is too far. In Naira #70k to 2.6M. O lo farrr.

Imagine, Brazil minimum wage is 10 times more than ours and we still term them a poor country. grin
Re: Countries With Most Affordable Data Prices Per 1 Gigabyte by lawani(m): 4:28pm On Aug 17
How much do they spend on average per month on voice and data? That is the real info needed. In the US, a 50 dollars per month phone plan means you are managing and people routinely spend above 200 dollars per month, It will also be like that in any high income country including Israel because the telcos have to pay their workers
