A comparison of two mobile proxy providers. Dedicated US devices versus a premium global rotating network, and which fits your operation.
If you only have 30 seconds, this table covers the essentials. The full breakdown is below.
| Attribute | SentraCell |
Oxylabs |
|---|---|---|
| IP Type | Dedicated mobile, one device per client | Shared rotating mobile pool |
| Pricing Model | Flat rate, unlimited bandwidth | Per-GB metered |
| Starting Price | $15/day or $125/mo | $9/GB (pay-as-you-go) |
| Network Pool | Real US carrier devices, in-house managed | Global mobile IP pool |
| IP Quality | Consistently clean fraud scores from fresh, low-traffic devices | Variable. Rotating pool shared across customers; IPs carry historical reputation from prior usage. |
| Geographic Coverage | United States (Texas and California nodes) | 100+ countries |
| Bandwidth | Unlimited | Metered, charged per GB |
| Setup Time | Under 10 minutes via Telegram | Account verification required |
| Free Trial | 1 hour free trial, no credit card | 7-day trial available |
| Best For | Agencies, antidetect users, predictable costs | Enterprise scraping, premium-tier use cases, global coverage |
SentraCell operates a different kind of mobile proxy infrastructure. Instead of a shared peer-to-peer network where IPs rotate across many customers, every SentraCell proxy is a real consumer Android phone assigned to one client. No modems. No multi-SIM gateways. No shared upstream carrier connections. Just a real phone, in a real location, running a real SIM.
When you sign up for SentraCell, a dedicated phone is provisioned for you in our Texas or California node. The device runs on a real US carrier SIM card from Verizon, AT&T, or T-Mobile. You receive credentials over Telegram, plug them into your antidetect browser or automation tool, and you are live in under ten minutes. No queue, no shared traffic, no other users on your device.
Our customer base is intentionally smaller than the major proxy providers. That is the model. Fewer customers means fresher IPs, less burned reputation history, and a wider effective IP pool relative to traffic volume. A real consumer phone cycling through carrier IPs naturally gives a wider ping range and more authentic mobile traffic patterns than a modem rack ever can.
Because every SentraCell device is a real consumer phone that has not been used by hundreds of clients before you, the IP quality score on our proxies is consistently strong. When operators run our IPs through fraud check tools like IPQualityScore or Scamalytics, they typically score in the clean-traffic range. That is the kind of score most large-scale shared pools cannot reliably deliver because their IPs have moved through too many customers. If your workflow involves account aging, ad operations, or anything where a fraud score check stands between your traffic and the platform you are working on, this matters.
Bandwidth is unlimited. There is no per-GB billing, no metered charges, no surprise overages at the end of the month. Whether you push 5 GB or 500 GB through your proxy, the price stays the same.
SentraCell supports SOCKS5 and HTTP protocols and integrates cleanly with GoLogin, Multilogin, AdsPower, Dolphin, and every other major antidetect browser. The same setup works for Selenium, Puppeteer, Playwright, and custom automation pipelines.
The infrastructure is managed entirely in-house. We own and operate the devices, the SIM cards, and the rotation mechanics. There are no third-party providers in the chain, which means no peer-to-peer instability, no surprise bans from network abuse you didn't cause, and no shared abuse history dragging down your IP reputation.
Oxylabs is a Lithuania-based proxy provider operating at network sizes comparable to Bright Data. Their mobile proxy network covers over 100 countries and serves traffic through a rotating pool of mobile IPs.
Oxylabs positions itself as a premium-tier vendor. Their mobile proxies start at $9 per GB on pay-as-you-go, with volume discounts on higher commitments (Corporate tier reaches approximately $3.50 per GB at scale). Mobile is a secondary product line for Oxylabs, whose primary focus is residential and datacenter proxies.
The network supports city, country, carrier, and ASN-level targeting. Sticky sessions and rotating sessions are both available. Protocols supported include HTTP(S) and SOCKS5.
Oxylabs offers a 7-day free trial across most of their proxy products and holds ISO 27001 certification, with a dedicated account management model for larger customers.
For teams that need a global proxy network with deep geographic targeting and access to a broader product suite (Web Scraper API, OxyCopilot, AI Studio), Oxylabs covers that territory. For teams that specifically want a truly dedicated US mobile proxy on a real consumer device with flat-rate pricing, mobile is not Oxylabs's primary product, and the per-GB billing model is structurally different from what SentraCell offers.
Oxylabs follows the same per-GB billing model as Bright Data. SentraCell does not.
A typical comparison: SentraCell at $125/month flat versus Oxylabs at $9 per GB pay-as-you-go.
At 14 GB of monthly usage, you pay $126 on Oxylabs PAYG. SentraCell sits at $125. They are roughly equivalent at this volume.
At 50 GB of monthly usage, Oxylabs PAYG is $450. SentraCell remains $125.
At 200 GB, Oxylabs PAYG is $1,800. SentraCell remains $125. Even Oxylabs Corporate tier (reportedly around $3.50/GB at high commitments) would charge $700 for 200 GB.
For agency operations and antidetect browser workflows that consistently consume meaningful bandwidth, SentraCell wins on cost by a wide margin. For low-volume use cases under 12 GB per month with global coverage requirements, Oxylabs may be more flexible.
