Telecomspricing launched its 5G Tariff Tracker Service in January 2020, then covering some 40 operators across 20 countries. Since then, many operators including MVNOs and sub-brands have launched 5G; the Q4 2024 edition covered 284 operators across 100 countries.

As many o9perators not make any distinction in pricing of 4G/5G, telecomspricing merged 4G pricing with 5G pricing into one single database. The database clearly marks if it is a 4G or 5G plan, and how the operators charges for 5G.

Additionally, telecomspricing provides insight into the latest trends with its 20+ page report which includes upcoming launches with the latest edition (Q4 2024) having identified some 25 upcoming launches. 

The key changes in 5G services include developments in technology aimed at providing improved coverage in urban areas and inside buildings. Together these developments provide improved download speeds as well as increased deployments to improve in-country 5G coverage.

The report identifies that:

• 5G is made available to a larger audience including the prepaid customer base.


• Many sub-brands and MVNOs started to make their services 5G ready with some levying a charge for 5G and others having moved away from charging extra.


• Increasingly speed-dependent offers are added to operators' postpaid portfolios.


• Operators increasingly move towards unlimited offering, with some operators overhauling their entire portfolios. 


• Details of upcoming 5G launches.

Other benefits include:

Telecomspricing highlights the changes made from update to update which allows the user to easily identify the change; and a brief summary of each change is provided with update. 

Operators' 5G launches are added with each update at no extra cost.
