Connected Consumer Survey 2020: 5G, data consumption and monetisation in Africa
"4G users in Africa spend more on mobile services than 3G users; they are also more satisfied with network speeds and the value of their subscription."
This report focuses on aspects of Analysys Mason's Connected Consumer Survey that relate to the behaviour, preferences and plans of smartphone users in Africa. In particular, it focuses on data consumption and monetisation, and the impact of 5G on customer satisfaction metrics. The survey was conducted in association with On Device Research.
This report provides:
- an assessment of the adoption of 4G and 5G and the impact on mobile users’ spend and customer satisfaction metrics
- insight into subscribers’ awareness of 5G and their interest in 5G use cases
- an analysis of mobile data usage patterns among respondents and how they are affected by data pricing.
