South Africa's mobile data prices are cheaper than the global average

[Daniel Puchert]

Mobile data price lie in South Africa

An analysis by MyBroadband shows that South Africa's mobile data prices are cheaper than the global average and very affordable compared to other African countries.

South African consumers often complain about high mobile data prices, while businesses and civil society regularly cite the prices as inhibitors to bridging the country's digital divide.

As someone who travels regularly to Europe I have often told people this and nobody believes me.

Does it take into account out of bundle rates? Uncapped?
As I keep saying with these articles it's not always pure price and there's usually a cheaper option available in these country. That's the issue here, choice and not meaningless averages. Also why exclude French territories?
