In a momentous development that serves as a key milestone in Beijing’s ambitions to become a technological superpower, Chinese carriers have now officially launched 5G services in the country despite initial expectations of a 2020 debut.
China’s three major state-backed carriers – China Telecom (HKG:0728), China Unicom, (HKG:0762) and China Mobile (HKG:0941) – have now inaugurated 5G plans that are quite similar and start from 128 yuan ($18) per month for 30 GBs of data and 500 minutes of calls. Subscribers of China Mobile will be able to avail 300 GBs of data with download speeds of up to 1 Gbps for 599 yuan ($85) while the entry-level plans will only offer download speeds that are capped at 300 Mbps.
