Phil Kendall, Executive Director, Wireless Operator Strategies, said: "China Mobile's aggressive push on 4G, and the expanding low-cost device ecosystem it is supporting, represents a boost for operators in their attempts to push 4G into more price-sensitive segments. However, while we view 4G LTE as a key part of any mobile operator's revenue growth strategy, it is not in itself sufficient to significantly improve the situation for many."
Susan Welsh de Grimaldo, Director, Wireless Operator Strategies commented: "With limited revenue growth potential, subsidy strategies and consolidation opportunities will remain part of the cost containment picture for mobile operators. At the same time, more operators will follow the example of those in Asia, where the quest for revenue growth has focused on services beyond connectivity, such as finance, content and digital lifestyle services."
