Recommendation

Getting consumers and businesses to adopt 5G may prove to be quite difficult – explains reporter Tang Yu in this article from AI Caijing News. After years of building telecom towers and testing networks, China’s 5G era has begun: On November 1, 2019, China’s three largest telecommunications providers made 5G smartphones and data plans available for purchasing in 50 first and second-tier cities. To ease the nationwide 5G rollout, the three telecom companies – China Unicom, China Mobile, and China Telecom – are offering identical data plans so that competition does not get in the way of efficiency. Find out why conversion to 5G may be rocky anyway. 

Take-Aways

  • China commercially launched 5G services, but for consumers, switching from 4G to 5G is expensive and troublesome. 
  • Telecom providers are focusing on corporate clients to grow their 5G business because individual consumers will likely adopt 5G more slowly.
  • Telecom providers’ 5G applications for schools and hospitals have thus far not gained much traction.
