It might be interesting to learn what mobile phone plans cost around the world. This article from Android Authority is about Unlimited Data Plans which are generally the most expensive. The details are in local currencies and also have an approximate US Dollar equivalent. I was surprised by the variation in prices around the world, where they give a “Quick Answer” of: “The price of a cheap unlimited plan around the world ranges from $4.17 per month in India to $65.04 in South Korea.” Probably most people do not use the expensive “unlimited plans” but it is an interesting chart that is provided. Maybe some people around the world will comment on what they pay each month for mobile phone service (?) I use a Tracfone with the One Year Plan that has only 1.5 GB Total Data and costs $125 USD a year, so that equates to about $10.50 USD a month because of extra Government Taxes and Fees and Charges, etc. That plan is meant for people who use Wi-Fi for their internet, not Cellular Data, and more Data can be purchased separately if needed. I do my best to find Tracfone Promo / Coupon codes to lower the cost whenever possible.
