Hey everyone!

I've been exploring a lot of threads here on BHW, especially in the Proxies Marketplace section, and I have a couple of questions about choosing a mobile proxy provider.

When you’re selecting a provider, what are the most important factors for you? I’d love to hear your opinions, maybe even ranked by your personal preferences.

Here are a few things I’m curious about:

  • Price?
  • Geo-locations?
  • Ping?
  • Fingerprint?
  • Any additional anonymity features beyond IP rotation?
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts! :)
 
speed: upload & download >15mbps (the more the better), no speed drops
stable & low latency (100ms max)
0% packets loss
fast IP rotation
Ipv6
Multi protocol: HTTP, Socks5 with UDP, VPN
IP rotation by link
No leaks (DNS, Ipv6, Ipv4).
low cost

any providers you could suggest?
 
  • Reliability: Look for providers with a proven track record of uptime and consistent performance.
  • Speed: Ensure the proxies offer fast connection speeds suitable for your needs.
  • Geolocation Options: Check if they provide proxies from desired locations, especially if you need specific regions.
  • IP Rotation: Evaluate the provider’s ability to rotate IP addresses automatically to avoid bans.
  • Customer Support: Opt for providers with responsive support to assist with any issues.
  • Pricing: Compare pricing plans to find one that fits your budget while offering good value.

Get a trial before the purchase, so that you can sure the proxies suitable for your project.
 
Speed, IP rotation method, protocol support, and packet loss are all huge when it comes to serious use cases. I also agree with those suggesting trial testing — sometimes what looks good on paper doesn’t hold up under real-world conditions. This kind of thread is exactly why I check BHW — solid, practical info from people actually in the trenches.
 
I’d add to what was already said -- support and how easy it is to talk to the seller is a big deal too. Sooner or later, stuff will break or go wrong, and it really helps when the person on the other side doesn’t disappear and actually helps sort things out.
 
It depends. What is your usecase? Are you creating/warming social media accounts? Are you managing social media accounts on a longer term basis? Are you creating artificial engagement on sm? Are you scraping data? What data? Different usecases, different priorities.

If speed/bandwidth is important (for example you need to be able to view videos) - use 5g/4g+ proxies (minimum cat6/cat12) with good latency to your location.

Ip rotation/change speed is also important in some usecases. Some small time providers use the power down/reset modem/module method and that could mean a downtime of even 30 seconds. Get a provider that has standby proxies and switches instantly.

Ip range is also important for some usecases. Even though most mobile proxies are using CGNAT/have many ips available, you should check with the vendor the pool size available.

To avoid fingerprinting just use a good provider without leaks and a good Antidetect Browser
