China finally gives the 4G licenses, but still no iPhone deal for China Mobile.
Just as promised, the Chinese government has finally given the TD -LTE licenses of three national carriers: China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom. This means that the company can start its 4G services when they want, the reality only China Mobile, the world's largest carrier has a large-scale TD -LTE trial across the country. The remaining two companies have already expressed the opinion that they are planning to use the more common FDD - LTE as their main base but the industry and Information Technology Ministry allegedly waiting for TD -LTE deployment to mature, while it also provides a FDD - LTE licenses.
In any case, this is obviously good news for mobile phone manufacturers who want to dig deep into the Chinese market, as soon as possible service will motivate customers to upgrade their phones - especially with all the red pocket money they will receive in the Chinese New Year of the end of the month. Although there has not TD - LTE devices in the market shortage, China Mobile recently told CNN that, contrary to rumors, he has yet to secure a deal with Apple to sell the iPhone. What's more strange is TD LTE - flavored iPhone 5s already approved for use on China Mobile's network from September. Well, for Apple fans stuck with China Mobile's sake, here is I hope denial just pushy decoy.
