WORLDWIDE
Mobile Magazine ’ s rankings of the top 10 mobile virtual network operators around the world .
WRITTEN BY : HARRY MENEAR
Mobile virtual network operators ( MVNOs ) are by far the most common type of connectivity provider worldwide , piggybacking their networks off the back of carriers that own the infrastructure necessary to host 3G , 4G , and 5G networks .
Because MVNOs aren ’ t weighed down by the massive capital expenditure required to operate mobile network infrastructure , they ’ re often able to offer more flexible , affordable services to more niche demographics . As such , MVNOs have strong adoption among heavy roaming data users , the youth market , and other subsegments of the telecom sector .
