Mobile proxy benchmark results

Compare leading mobile proxy providers on real mobile endpoints. The chart shows the success rate (the share of requests that returned a valid mobile page, 2xx/3xx, a correct mobile DOM, and no captcha/block) and the average response time (the mean total time for successful requests).

Results are updated continuously from benchmark runs executed every 15 minutes across randomized mobile URLs:

The best mobile proxies of 2026

Bright Data provides access to over 7 million mobile IPs worldwide and supports both HTTP(S) and SOCKS5 protocols. It’s one of the most established mobile proxy networks, offering advanced targeting at the country-, city-, ASN-, and ZIP-level.

The service includes two main types of mobile proxy plans:

• Shared (Pay-per-GB): ideal for flexible or smaller-scale use cases.
• Dedicated (Pay-per-IP): suitable for automation, large-scale scraping, or account management.

Both subscription and pay-as-you-go options are available, with no extra fees for specific carriers or cities, making Bright Data a strong choice for teams that need scalable, location-accurate proxies.

Pros:

• Based on our benchmark, Bright Data maintained a success rate between 90–95%, placing it in the top tier for reliability.
• Targeting by country, city, ZIP, carrier, ASN
• No additional cost for choosing specific carriers/cities

Cons:

• Learning curve for beginners (complex dashboard)
• No unlimited traffic option on lower-tier plans

Decodo provides access to over 10 million mobile IPs, enabling country, city, ASN, and OS-level targeting, allowing you to filter traffic by iOS or Android devices.

Each plan includes a browser extension, built-in proxy checker, and access to Decodo’s X Browser, which helps manage sessions and reduce fingerprinting risks.

Pros:

• Top-tier success rate (95–98%) and fast response times
• Easy-to-use browser tools (X Browser + Proxy Checker)

Cons:

• Limited rotation customization for shared proxies

Oxylabs mobile proxies support granular targeting by country, state, city, ASNs, and even GPS coordinates for precise location testing. By default, IPs rotate with every request, and users can customize the rotation intervals up to 30 minutes, making it ideal for both high-frequency scraping and longer session-based workflows.

The network is designed for scalability, supporting millions of carrier-grade IP addresses with automatic rotation. Note that HTTP connections are available when using Oxylabs’ mobile proxies on Android devices over mobile networks.

Pros:

• Success rate (92–96%) and stable response times
• Granular GPS-level targeting for local testing

Cons:

• Pricing is on the higher side for small teams
• HTTP-only support on Android devices

DataImpulse mobile proxies provide targeting at the country, state, city, ASN, and ZIP code levels. They offer both rotating and sticky sessions for flexible usage. Additionally, the provider offers a paid trial that lets users test the service with 5GB of data for $5.

NodeMaven bundles mobile access into residential plans rather than pricing it separately, and both pools share one credential format; switching a script from residential to mobile IPs is a dashboard setting, not a re-integration. Carrier-level targeting is available through the same parameter used for residential ISPs.

Mobile inventory is subject to the same eight-hour refresh cycle and High/Medium availability tags as the residential pool, which matters more here because carrier-plus-city combinations narrow the pool quickly.

ProxyScrape’s mobile proxies support the HTTP protocol and provide country-level targeting for the US, UK, and Austria. Users can also narrow traffic to specific US states such as New York, Florida, and Texas, making it a flexible choice for region-specific testing.

By default, ProxyScrape offers rotating mobile proxies, with the option to enable sticky sessions for up to 3 minutes. This balance between rotation and session persistence makes it suitable for lightweight automation, ad verification, and general browsing use cases.

Pros:

• Competitive pricing and flexible plans
• Easy setup and quick IP rotation

Cons:

• Limited targeting outside of the US, UK, and Austria
• No built-in OS or carrier filtering

Infatica specializes in dedicated mobile proxies with country-, city-, and ASN-level targeting. Designed for session-based tasks such as social media management or QA testing, its sticky sessions can last up to 60 minutes, striking a balance between persistence and rotation flexibility.

Pros:

• Long sticky sessions (up to 1 hour)
• Targeting by country, city, ASN

Cons:

• Smaller IP pool than larger competitors
• Fewer targeting options (no carrier/OS)

Mobile proxy benchmark methodology

Scope & targets: Test real carrier mobile proxies against mobile endpoints (m.google.com/m.bing.com/m.yahoo.com/yandex touch; m.amazon/eBay/Walmart mobile product pages; m.instagram.com/m.twitter.com). Randomize one mobile URL per category every 15-minute cycle; run all vendors concurrently.

Traffic profile: Send mobile UAs (Android Chrome, iOS Safari) with realistic client hints (Sec-CH-UA-*, Viewport-Width, DPR, Accept-Language, optional Save-Data). Use HTTP/2, 10s connect / 20s total timeouts. Record TLS/JA3 hash if available.

How do mobile proxies work?

They act as intermediaries between your device and a target website. Each request is sent through a mobile IP from a carrier network.

Depending on the provider, you can use either rotating mobile proxies (where the IP address changes automatically) or sticky proxies (which maintain the same IP address for a set time).
