Mobile post at the top of the ranking

What we recommend as a priority to consumers is to favor the non -binding package at 50 GB or more. Freer, the subscriber can interrupt him at any time without termination costs if he is no longer satisfied with the service.

There Palme of the best 50 GB package without a question of Mobile Post. The operator offers a 60 GB data envelope For less than 20 €/month. An excellent value for money for people who wish to save money without giving up 4G.

Red by SFR: A maximum of data at the best price

In second position, we find the RED package, always in a logic of “which can most can”. For 20 €/month, Without commitment, the consumer benefits from a 100 GB envelope, associated with an unlimited package (calls, SMS, MMS). It is currently the The cheapest 100 GB package on the market. For big consumers who still want to save money, this is the most suitable solution.

Free arrives in third position

Free offers a subscription quite similar to that of Red. THE Free mobile network being a little less efficient than that of SFR, We ranked it third in this 50 GB mobile package comparator.

However, Free offers International advantages that should be emphasized. Calls are unlimited from Europe and the French overseas departments, but also from the USA, Canada, Australia, South Africa, Israel and New Zealand. The subscription also contains a 25 GB envelope available in roaming since 65 destinations. For regular travelers, this is ideal.

Sosh and B & You are elbow

Difficult to decide between the Sosh 50 GB package from that of B & You. The two subscriptions are very similar and remain a little expensive if they are compared to the offers of the Mobile Post, Red or Free.

From our point of view, Sosh stands out on the quality of its mobile network which is that of Orange (>> See the offers). It also offers internet envelopes which can be fully usable from the European Union and the DOM, which is not the case at B & You.

• Watch TV on your smartphone: 1h = 250 MB

• Watch streamming videos: 1h = 450 MB (900 MB if the content is in high definition)
• Call with VOIP: 1h = 30 MB
• Download an application: About 20 MB (depends on the content of the application)

• Download for 15 GB of files (documents, images, videos, applications, etc.)

Suffice to say that a 50 GB package allows you to use your smartphone without counting too much. With this example, we are on a intensive consumption. The majority of French people use much less data than that.

For the people who find the example below well above their monthly consumption, better opt for a lower package, at 30 or 20 GB of Internet for example.
