Bwana Lawi, I think the difference is the number of TV channels (between I10 and R10). I have been on R10 for a couple of years and you get the Plus Premium TV package (includes Nickelodeon, FOX, NatGeo Gold, etc) that the I10 doesn’t have. I almost switched to the I10 when they introduced last year until I called Zuku Support to confirm the difference. So if you only need Internet and no interest in TV, then I10 would be perfect (and cheaper). Hope that helps.

I see there is an increase in I1 and R1 prices without corresponding increase in speeds. What's up with that? Looks like Zuku is finally realizing they have no serious competition and are capitalizing on it. Sad

Also waiting to hear the difference between R and I. Considering that I10 still gives you net + tv + phone services as per their website <http://www.zuku.co.ke/component/content/category/13-zuku-navigator>.

If you have been in the ISP space (I mean the supplier end [image: 😊]) this is a really cooked up story. ISP is a business of numbers. The higher the numbers, the cheaper it is to sustain a single subscriber, hence more profitable. Zuku is telling us the opposite. Generally, over 50% of customers don't even utilize their allocated (highly shared) capacity! Cost per megabit significantly drops with higher subs.
Trying to create an impression that ALL customers need a higher speed and therefore the increment is justified is not only wrong but misleading (any regulatory person reading this??).
Zuku is growing its subscriber base and needs someone to cover their overheads (us [image: ☹]). There are better bandwidth engineering stories out there. Invest in them and just don't increase the prices. Hello?

I was comfortable with my 10Mbps. I honestly don't see the need to cough an additional 500/= for an extra 5Mbps that I don't need.

I got this document forward denoting a zuku price increase as from February 2016. Essentially they are upgrading internet speeds with a slight price bump.
What are your thoughts ?
