Which mobile proxy provider is right for you? An honest, side-by-side comparison of features, pricing, and performance.
SOAX is stronger for broad global proxy-pool buying, while Proxy Poland is built for teams that need dedicated Polish 4G/5G mobile proxies, flat daily pricing, HTTP/SOCKS5/OpenVPN/Xray access, and predictable rotation. Choose Proxy Poland when local mobile identity, simpler setup, and unlimited-bandwidth workflows matter more than buying large global proxy pools.
The SOAX comparison page is meant for buyers deciding between shared proxy pools versus dedicated Polish mobile modems. It keeps the tradeoff practical: detection profile, session control, protocols, bandwidth pricing and how much infrastructure ownership matters for Polish account work, scraping or local checks.
Comparison rows summarize buying trade-offs, not lab-certified guarantees. Verify pricing and claim-handling rules on methodology before quoting exact external numbers.
Competitor facts are checked against public vendor pages before publication. Use vendor pages as the source of truth before quoting exact external prices or terms.
Caveat: SOAX uses package-based pricing, so per-GB rates shift with plan size and active promotions β check the current plan before comparing.
SOAX positions itself as the value option in the shared pool market with competitive per-GB rates and a growing feature set. But the per-GB model has an inherent problem: the more value you extract from your proxies, the more they cost. Heavy usage -- the kind that drives real business results -- gets penalized with higher bills. Combined with a detection rate that SOAX itself acknowledges is not no, here is why Proxy Poland's flat-rate dedicated hardware solves both the cost and quality problems simultaneously.
We operate real dedicated physical 4G/5G modems or real Android phones with real SIM cards in Warsaw. No reselling, no shared pools. Each modem or Android phone is a dedicated device with a real Polish SIM card on a live carrier network.
Every proxy runs on a genuine LTE 4G/5G connection. Platforms see real mobile traffic from Polish carriers β consistent with a regular smartphone connection. That is why detection rates stay at no in our tested workflows.
No per-GB billing, no bandwidth caps, no surprise charges. Pay a flat daily rate and use as much data as you need. Scrape terabytes, stream video, run automation -- all included.
Test the proxies for 1 hour free. No credit card, no business verification, no commitments. Sign up, get your proxy credentials, and start testing in under 2 minutes.
SOAX sources mobile IPs through SDK partnerships embedded in third-party apps -- real users' phones serve as exit nodes. Your traffic routes through someone else's mobile device. Proxy Poland operates its own dedicated physical 4G/5G modems or real Android phones with dedicated SIM cards. Nobody else's device is involved in your connection. This eliminates dependency on third-party device availability and uptime.
SOAX charges by GB: $3.60/GB on the 25GB starter plan, down to $2.00/GB on the 800GB business plan, with enterprise rates advertised from $0.32/GB. Proxy Poland's 30-day plan runs $2/day flat with unlimited bandwidth. The more data you push through one Polish mobile line, the wider the cost advantage grows.
SOAX lists HTTP(S), SOCKS5, UDP, and QUIC protocols. Proxy Poland adds OpenVPN and Xray for full operating system tunneling through the mobile proxy. This matters for mobile app testing, browser fingerprint management, and workflows where individual application proxy configuration is impractical.
SOAX offers a $1.99 paid trial with limited bandwidth for 3 days. Proxy Poland provides a free 1-hour trial with no payment, no credit card, and no bandwidth limits. You can test at full speed and full capacity without spending anything. If the free trial convinces you, SOAX's paid trial becomes an unnecessary expense.
SOAX now uses a unified plan model across proxy types. Public pricing starts at $3.60/GB on the 25GB starter plan, with enterprise rates advertised from $0.32/GB. They have broad geographic coverage and a user-friendly dashboard.
However, the per-GB model breaks down quickly for sustained professional workloads. At the current $3.60/GB starter rate, pulling 10 GB/day costs $36/day. Proxy Poland's 30-day rate is $2/day flat with unlimited bandwidth β on any workload that hammers one Polish mobile line, the savings are substantial.
Beyond pricing, the quality difference matters. SOAX acknowledges a low-medium detection rate. Proxy Poland runs on dedicated hardware where each customer's IP is exclusively theirs β for social media management, account creation, or any task where a single flag means a lost account, dedicated hardware is not optional.
SOAX's network is built on a hybrid model combining ethically-sourced residential and mobile IPs from opt-in SDK partners with traditional pool aggregation. While they emphasize their whitelisted IP sourcing, the end result is still a shared pool -- your mobile IP comes from someone else's device through an SDK, passes through SOAX's proxy gateway, and reaches the target site. The IP has been used by other SOAX customers before and will be again after your session. Proxy Poland assigns you a dedicated physical modem or real Android phone with a carrier SIM that generates IPs exclusively for your connection -- no SDKs, no shared devices, no third-party phones.
SOAX performs well for general web scraping and data collection tasks where occasional detection is acceptable β their 99.55% success rate is competitive for bulk operations. But for high-stakes tasks where a single detection event means a lost account β managing social media profiles worth thousands in followers, running bots on platforms with permanent ban policies, or scraping sites that permanently blacklist detected IPs β shared pools introduce unacceptable risk. Proxy Poland's carrier-assigned mobile IPs on dedicated hardware are genuinely close to regular smartphone traffic.
SOAX's $1.99 trial gives you 3 days and 400MB, enough for basic testing. Ongoing public plans start at $3.60/GB on the 25GB starter plan, with larger public tiers at $3.40/GB, $2.46/GB, and $2.00/GB, plus enterprise rates from $0.32/GB. Proxy Poland's flat model is strongest when the workload needs dedicated Polish mobile hardware and sustained bandwidth.
SOAX's AI-powered web scraping tools and CAPTCHA handling system are genuinely useful for teams that need more than raw proxy access. Their platform includes structured data extraction, intelligent retry logic, and automated anti-detection measures. If you want a turnkey scraping solution rather than configuring your own stack, SOAX's integrated tooling adds real value beyond what a standalone proxy provider offers.
With 191 million IPs across 195+ countries, SOAX provides mobile and residential coverage in almost every market globally. If your workflow demands mobile IPs in Southeast Asia, South America, and Africa simultaneously, SOAX's geographic breadth is a genuine advantage. Proxy Poland offers Polish mobile IPs exclusively, so global geo-targeting campaigns are outside our scope.
SOAX is the better fit for global operations needing broad geographic coverage with integrated scraping tools, where occasional detection events are an acceptable tradeoff for scale. Proxy Poland is the better fit for users who need lower-detection Polish mobile IPs with dedicated hardware, unlimited bandwidth, and predictable flat-rate costs. If lower detection risk and cost efficiency matter more than global coverage, we are the stronger choice.
Create a free Proxy Poland account -- no credit card required, unlike SOAX's $1.99 trial. Activate the 1-hour trial and receive your dedicated proxy credentials instantly. Test against the same websites and platforms you currently access through SOAX. Focus your testing on any sites where SOAX was triggering CAPTCHAs or blocks, since those are the targets where dedicated hardware makes the biggest difference.
Update your proxy settings from SOAX's gateway format (proxy.soax.com:port with username-based geo-targeting) to Proxy Poland's direct host:port:user:pass credentials. If you use SOAX's Web Scraper API, you will need to handle HTTP requests through your own scraping tools since Proxy Poland provides raw proxy access. For most users running their own scripts with Scrapy, Requests, or Selenium, the migration is a single line proxy URL change.
Run a controlled comparison over 24-48 hours by splitting your traffic between SOAX and Proxy Poland. Track three metrics: success rate per target site, average response time, and detection/block rate. For social media accounts, test with low-risk profiles first. After confirming Proxy Poland's performance, migrate fully and let your SOAX subscription lapse. Your SOAX bandwidth credit does not expire, so you can use remaining balance for occasional non-critical tasks during the transition.
Yes for medium to heavy Polish mobile workloads. SOAX public pricing starts at $3.60/GB, with enterprise rates advertised from $0.32/GB. Proxy Poland's flat $2/day effective 30-day plan is better when sustained bandwidth and a dedicated Polish mobile modem matter more than global pool breadth.
Proxy Poland achieves lower detection risk because each customer gets a dedicated physical 4G/5G modem. SOAX uses shared pools with low-medium detection rates. For platforms with strict anti-proxy measures (social media, ticketing, banking), the difference is significant.
Yes. SOAX charges per GB of data transferred. Proxy Poland offers unlimited bandwidth on all plans. For data-heavy operations like video scraping, large-scale crawling, or media downloading, the cost difference can be enormous.
Proxy Poland's trial is free -- no credit card, no payment, no commitments. SOAX charges $1.99 for a 3-day trial with 400MB of traffic.
Proxy Poland's dedicated 4G/5G IPs are ideal for social media management. Each proxy is a real mobile device on a Polish carrier network β platforms see genuine mobile traffic. SOAX's shared pools carry higher risk of IP contamination from other users.
SOAX's Web Scraper API and proxy service are separate products. You cannot route SOAX's scraping tools through Proxy Poland's proxies. However, you can use open-source alternatives (Scrapy, Playwright, Puppeteer) with Proxy Poland's proxies and achieve better results thanks to dedicated IPs and unlimited bandwidth.
Proxy Poland's dedicated 4G/5G modems are actually better suited for high-stakes purchasing than SOAX's shared pools. Ticketing and sneaker platforms aggressively block known proxy IPs. A dedicated mobile IP from a real carrier SIM is hard to distinguish from a regular customer's phone connection, giving you the best possible success rate.
SOAX's $1.99 gives you 3 days but with limited bandwidth -- enough for light testing but not for stress-testing under real workloads. Proxy Poland's free 1-hour trial has no bandwidth limits, so you can push the proxy hard with real traffic volumes. One hour of full-speed testing reveals more about proxy quality than 3 days of bandwidth-restricted access.
SOAX entry mobile plans start around $99/month for roughly 8 GB, so $50 only buys a partial month or the $1.99 micro-trial. Proxy Poland fits a $50 budget with about 4 days on a dedicated Polish 4G/5G modem at $11/day, plus unmetered traffic during that window. For a short, high-throughput test the flat-rate dedicated modem or real Android phone with a real SIM card is usually more useful than SOAX's metered residential GB.
SOAX lets you filter by country and city for Poland, but its mobile network is a rotating pool, so you cannot pin a specific carrier ASN like Orange Polska or T-Mobile Polska reliably. Proxy Poland runs dedicated physical modem or real Android phone with a real SIM card on real Polish SIM cards and Android devices from Orange, T-Mobile, Plus and Play, so the carrier ASN is selectable and stable. This is relevant when your target site segments traffic by mobile operator.
SOAX sticky sessions on the mobile pool typically last 2-10 minutes before the IP rotates, which breaks long-running social warm-up flows on Instagram, TikTok and Facebook. Proxy Poland's dedicated modem or real Android phone with a real SIM card holds the same Polish carrier IP until you trigger rotation, so an account can stay on one IP for hours or days. That session continuity is the main reason teams move warm-up workloads off rotating residential pools.
Yes β SOAX prices its mobile plans at roughly 2-3x the equivalent residential GB rate, and Polish mobile traffic falls in the higher tier. Proxy Poland charges a single flat rate ($11/day to $250/180 days) regardless of carrier, with no per-GB premium. There is no separate mobile, premium or geo upcharge, which makes month-over-month spend predictable for ad verification and account management.
