According to a study by Cable.co.uk, Norway ranks 18th out of 29 European countries in terms of the affordability of its mobile data prices. The average price for 1GB of mobile data in Norway is USD 6.66, which is more expensive than in many other European countries such as Poland, Italy, and Austria.

In terms of broadband internet prices, a report by the Norwegian Communications Authority found that the average price for a broadband internet subscription in Norway was NOK 417 (USD 49) per month in 2020. This is slightly higher than the average price in Sweden (SEK 299 or USD 33) and Denmark (DKK 299 or USD 49), but lower than the average price in Finland (EUR 29 or USD 35).

It’s important to note that Norway is known for having a high cost of living in general, so telecom prices may be higher than in some other countries due to this factor.
