How does Cox Gigablast compare?
When shopping for internet service, you’ll want to compare service between providers and the plans each provider has to offer. Here’s a look at how Cox Gigablast compares to similar plans from other providers and to other Cox internet plans.
Cox Gigablast vs. other gig internet providers
Nearly every major cable or fiber provider offers a gigabit plan. Cox’s version of gigabit service is fairly similar to other providers in many ways.
- Starting price: $99.99/mo. is a little higher than most. Some providers offer gig service for around $80/mo.
- Speeds: 940 Mbps download is comparable to the competition, 35 Mbps upload is not. Providers like CenturyLink offer equal upload and download speeds of 940 Mbps.
- Data caps: 1.25 TB/mo. is higher than most providers with a data cap, but many like Spectrum, Verizon and AT&T do not have data caps.
- Equipment cost: $10.99/mo. is lower than most device rental fees and there’s an option to use your own.
Gigablast vs. other Cox internet plans
Gigablast is going to be the highest-priced Cox internet plan, but it also comes with the most value because it offers the most speed for the cost.
Cox plan | Starting price* | Max download speeds | No. of devices | Cost per Mbps |
Gigablast | $99.99/mo. | 940 Mbps | 10+ | $0.11 |
Internet Ultra | $79.99/mo. | 500 Mbps | 7-9 | $0.16 |
Internet Preferred | $59.99/mo. | 150 Mbps | 5-6 | $0.40 |
Internet Essential | $39.99/mo. | 50 Mbps | 3-4 | $0.80 |
Internet Starter | $29.99/mo. | 10 Mbps | 1-2 | $3.00 |
*Pricing per month plus taxes for length of contract. Additional fees and terms may apply. Pricing varies by location and availability. All prices subject to change at any time. May or may not be available based on service address. Last updated 12/16/20.
Gigablast is a huge speed jump from the Internet Preferred plan and below, but the average household probably won’t be able to tell much of a difference between Gigablast and the Internet Ultimate plan. 500 Mbps is ample speed for streaming and gaming, but the added speed you get with Gigablast for only an additional $20/mo. makes the value hard to pass up.
