And finally, our study of global network speeds during Covid 19 lockdown periods in conjunction with the Oxford Covid Lockdown Stringency Tracker.įive most expensive countries in the world The worldwide broadband price comparison by .uk. The Worldwide broadband speed league by .uk in association with M-Lab, a partnership between New America's Open Technology Institute, Google Inc., Princeton University's PlanetLab, and other supporting partners. Other connectivity-focused data published by .uk and various data partners are as follows: You can find the reasons behind the exclusion of each of these countries in the second tab of the downloadable data. Pierre and Miquelon, South Sudan, Tuvalu, Vatican City (Holy See), Venezuela, Wallis and Futuna, Congo (Democratic Republic of), and Zimbabwe.

However, there are still some countries or territories where either no provision exists, there exists only 2G infrastructure, providing only calls and/or SMS texts, or the data simply isn't available. Unlike our measurements of worldwide broadband speed and worldwide broadband pricing, where lack of fixed-line infrastructure meant significant gaps, mobile data provision is near-ubiquitous. This includes country name, its ranking out of the 230 countries measured, its cheapest available 1GB of data, its most expensive 1GB of data, how many plans were measured to create the average, and on what day the snapshot was taken. Hovering over an individual country will bring up its associated data. As you can see, this paints an interesting picture, with a lot of the countries where mobile data is cheapest in and around the former USSR, and with some of the most expensive in North America, Africa and Western Europe. Countries are colour-coded by the average price of one gigabyte (1GB) of mobile data.
