29 Apr 09 China Unicom Announced Wo 3G Service
3G is something that Chinese wireless customers have been craving for but failed to get it so far. However that’s about to change soon. The Chinese carriers have realized that 3G is the way to go and their 3G networks are being developed if not already finished.
China Unicom will be launching its first UMTS/3G network on May 17. The new service will be called Wo and it will bring 49 new 3G devices to Unicom subscribers. That’s a nice round number! From these initial 49 devices more than 40 are phones manufactured by Nokia, Samsung, LG, Sony Ericsson, ZTE, Huawei, Sharp, Lenovo and others. Over 284 cities in China will get 3G coverage and we should only assume that lots of customers will be thrilled about it. We’ll be waiting for more pricing details from China Unicom as I am sure new plans are about to be unveiled. And when will the other carriers in China roll out their 3G networks?
