“Swedish, Finnish and Norwegian operators play in a league of their own”, says Fredrik Jungermann at tefficient. “Nowhere else you’ll find as high mobile data traffic, as many smartphones, as many dedicated mobile broadband subscriptions and as high network quality. In addition, the mobile operators in Sweden, Finland and Norway are among the most productive operators in the world.”
