The number of mobile subscriptions per 100 people — often more than 100.
The ranking uses the latest available value for each country — the year is shown in the row. The table spans 2004 to 2024.
Top-20 · per 100 people
The scale does not start at zero — the values lie in a narrow range, and starting from zero the bars would be indistinguishable. The axis ticks are labeled.
