Three big operators have released their data in January, 5 g users continue to increase by a wide margin, and seems to accelerate the popularization, 5 g mail tunnels, however the court announced in January, the domestic mobile phone market data, 5 g handset sales a new low for nearly four months, 4 g phones rebounded sharply and nearly 10 months, severely fan the operator a slap.

In January, according to data from China mobile's 5 g net increase of more than 1400 users, the net increase of more than 800 China telecom, China unicom, a net gain of more than 550, with China telecom on the number of 5 g net users in accelerating growth, seems to be 5 g commercial began in earnest.

However, according to mail tunnels domestic mobile phone market sales figures released by the court awkward, by the end of 2021 total domestic 5 about 4 g mobile phone sales. More than 400 million, and by the end of 2021 China has more than 700 million 5 g users, this means that about 2. 600 million 5 g users still use the 4 g mobile phone.

The 4. 400 million 5 g phones and 2019 annual sales of more than 1000 g 5 g phones do not support the SA network, SA and three carriers in 5 g network, which is said that more than 1000 5 g cell phones have been unable to actually use in existing 5 g network; And there are a lot of netizens said they use the 5 g mobile phones has long closed 5 g, which in turn to remove part of the 5 g, actual use 5 5 g phones than actually 4 g networks. Are smaller than 5 g phone accumulative total sales of 400 million.

Now 4 g mobile phone sales volume rebounded sharply in January 6.42 million, the second-highest since April 2021, only slightly lower than 2021, 6.47 million units in October, 5 g handset sales is nearly four months of low, so the contrast can be seen that the domestic consumer enthusiasm for 5 g is in retreat, instead of 4 g mobile phone is full of enthusiasm, the irony of 5 g.

Even has covered 5 g urban areas, the penetrating power of weak due to the high frequency band, the city of stair, toilets, and other areas from no 5 g signal, which means that when using 5 g, 5 g phones have to frequent switching between the 4 g / 5 g, lead to the range of mobile phones is greatly reduced, 5 g online experience is also poor, prompting many users simply shut down 5 g.

5 g package too expensive cause consumers are reluctant to use 5 g, 5 g of three carriers package is one hundred yuan, far more than they are as low as $40 per capita ARPU; 5 g phone price is too expensive, the 5 g of mobile phone the cheapest also want 999 yuan, with the 4 g phones compared to price as low as 500 yuan less than too expensive, led to many users do not want to switch to 5 g service.

Especially the surprise millet in 2020 4 g mobile red rice 9 a long, on the hit list because this is ultra low end the market configuration is good, price
