Current limitations of cellular broadband
US
• Normally offered through
“unlimited” data plans, US
cellular data service is
among the most expensive
in developed countries
(twice as expensive as EU)
Global
• Int’l data roaming is very
expensive causing over
60% of travelers to turn it
off; in-destination cellular
connectivity service is very
inconvenient
o With more connected devices like tablets , watches, laptops,
drones, consumers – especially those with prepaid plans –
are seeking new ways of affordable, on-demand connectivity
o With the new norm of remote work, users who cannot access
fixed broadband (Wi-Fi) and/or require ubiquitous
connectivity are utilizing cellular data to stay connected
o Digital divide is real – over 30 million Americans still don’t
have access to broadband internet while over 3 billion
globally cannot access or afford internet service
1GB cost per Country (U$)
