Who is most likely to benefit from Zuku Fiber? Who is it for?
According to Zuku, their products are aimed at making and providing quality home entertainment and communication services accessible to a rapidly growing, choice-conscious African middle class. Zuku fiber is squarely directed at this demographic. This is true for many reasons. First, the coverage in Nairobi for instance. Zuku Fiber effectively covers the zones and regions of the city that can be considered middle-class residentials, and their packages pricing reflects just that.

How different is Zuku Fiber from Mobile Internet?
Unlike mobile internet that is delivered to you terrestrially, Fiber internet requires an actual physical connection to a Zuku station. For that reason, Fiber services might not be available all over. Only a few areas can be covered at a time, depending on the robustness of the fiber provider’s network. Also, most of the time, mobile internet is billed per Megabyte, or one has to purchase data bundles before accessing. With Zuku fiber, and any other fiber implementation for that matter, you choose a speed package and pay for it and you get unlimited internet at that said speed. Mobile Internet requires you to have a cellular device (a router, a Mi-Fi or a cell phone) to access and take advantage of this. For fiber, you need an actual physical connection to your home or premise and a router to take advantage of this. This way, Mobile Internet is a lot more versatile than a fiber connection.
