It was recently announced that China Mobile has officially surpassed 500,000,000 subscribers. In other words, that’s over half a billion.

If this is hard for you to fathom, Engadget points to the fact that if China Mobile were a US carrier, they would have 1.65 phones for every single person in the country. See it a bit clearer?

Anyways this is truly an amazing milestone and it’s now only a matter of time until China Mobile passes the 1 billion subscriber mark.
