    I see some people get by with a tiny bit of data. Is that because you have wifi at home and work. I have no WiFi at work so I got through a lot of data.

    £1 monthly. Unlimited data/SMS/voice. It’s a trial offer of 6-8 months but with a little juggling you can keep the trail much longer. I’ve had mine for allot 4 years now

        5 gigs of data and unlimited text and calling. I’m on wifi probably 95% of the time and download songs/playlists instead of streaming if I’m out and about. I don’t think I’ve used over a gig a month so far.

    USA, $17.50/month prepaid for a year: US Mobile Starter Unlimited (or whatever the lowest tier is called) gives 10 GB of high-speed data and then infinite 1 Mbps, which is faster than any other throttled speed (apart from Visible, but that’s also costlier). I have a referral link for it that rewards both the referrer and referred.

    Oh, and it gives infinite minutes and texts across all of North America, I think (Canada + Mexico), as well as access to all the major satellite networks, so if you don’t like your AT&T service, you can order a SIM to try T-Mobile’s, etc., all while still on the same US Mobile plan; they advertise themselves as a “supercarrier” accordingly.

    In the US, I pay 23 dollars per month for 2 lines sharing 5 gigabytes of 5g data, unlimited talk and text through U.S. Mobile.

    It’s plenty because we are on WiFi most of the time.

    Canada. $39.55 CAD per month (approximately 25€). Plan includes unlimited calling and text in Canada, US and Mexico, 75GB of data at 5G. Also includes roaming to over 100 countries, but limited to 10GB of data. Calling and texts are unlimited in the country where you roam. So for example, if you’re in Italy, it doesn’t cost anything to call or text Italian numbers, but if you were to call or text Japan, there would be a charge.

      Hey fellow Canadian. I pay about the same. Looking at these other responses, I think we’re getting screwed.

        Legit. I had another plan with Rogers for over a year which was 75GB at 5G, Canada/US, and that was $25 CAD a month. Once the temp discounts ended, it was up to $35, and I had some travel planned, at which point i just hopped on the Freedom Roam Beyond plan. But yeah, we are definitely getting screwed haha.

    I usually buy an e-sim when I’m traveling and you can get usually get 10-20$/mo unlimited data at reasonable speeds everywhere in Asia except China which is an entire different world of its own and really not worth the hassle so you take what you can get.

    One exception is Thailand where I buy 1 year prepaid sim for 40$ unlimited 100mbps which you can keep extending year after year for almost the same price.

    All of these prices are irrelevant without considering local salaries but cellular data is really good in Asia. I’ve seen cell towers deep in Vietnams jungles and was actually texting from a cave there. This is why low orbit networks like starlink are severely overrated and will always lose to cell towers.

      terrestrial towers are great where there are more people than there would need to be towers and where towers are allowed to be built, getting towers installed in national parks is hard and building them in the middle of nowhere has almost no return on investment, satelite networks could fill this niche where the only current option is wildly expensive satilite phones by Garmin and the likes.

    Japan.

    ¥968/month (around $6 USD) for up to 3GB with free calls.
    If I use more, the price changes automatically — ¥2,068 for 3–20GB, and ¥3,168 if I go over 20GB.

    Portugal, €5/month, 100GB of data connection, 5000 call minutes. I’m supposed to pay one cent per sms but I have yet to be charged.
