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.

We set quotas on age, gender and geographical spread to that effect. There was a minimum of 1000 respondents per country, and 4000 respondents in the region.
