Mobile subscriptions are for many an expenditure item they cannot escape. NiceMobil is a digital mobile operator.ย This means that you avoid physical paper invoices and telephone queues for customer service.ย You can find everything you need in a completely separate app.

NiceMobil has both eSIM and SIM cards and depending on your mobile phone, you can choose the one that suits you best.

eSIMย is a digital SIM card that comes with your mobile phone.ย To use this, you therefore need a mobile phone that has it built-in.

Not sure what’s best for your mobile phone?ย No need to worry, because NiceMobil app finds out if your mobile supports eSIM. If it doesn’t support eSIM, that’s not a problem – the company also offer SIM cards.

7/10 phones sold have an eSIM, ICE reports nicemobil sim card

The statistics from June show that 72 percent of phones sold from Ice are able to use eSIM

The figures from June show a total of six models from Apple on the top 10 list. Samsung is again the biggest challenger, and the OnePlus Nord2 is the only mobile that is not from the big two.

We again see a strong preponderance of top models, but this month a slightly more even distribution between Apple and Samsung.ย It is worth noting that the availability of phones could affect the statistics, says Hans-Jรธrgen Siljan, head of category and logistics at Ice.

The statistics also show that 85 percent of phones sold can use 5G, and 72 percent of phones sold are eSIM compatible.

More eSIM = more competition

– It is pleasing to see that an increasingly large proportion of the mobile fleet is eSIM compatible. ESIM makes it easier for the customer to change operators in an otherwise static mobile market. Easier switching again means more competition, which is positive for the customer and positive for us, as most people who switch choose Ice and NiceMobil, says Siljan.

NiceMobil is the world’s first fully digital mobile company.ย The brand was launched by Ice on 15 November 2021 and has several of the market’s cheapest mobile subscriptions.
