US Mobile Market Update.
« on: November 16, 2016, 11:34:45 PM »
This might really sound dull. . After all this time, how could there be anything of to see in the the US mobile market. Have not are the spoils been divided up?
Weill... maybe not.
Some Q2 items:
•  12 years ago, US mobile data revenues were less than 5% of the overall revenues. In Q2 2016, mobile data revenues crossed the 75% threshold becoming the second country after Japan to do so.
•  Device revenues declined sharply as consumers are upgrading at a slower pace than before and new device launches haven’t really motivated consumers to upgrade.
•  Verizon and T-Mobile have captured the bulk of the postpaid growth in the last three years.
•   Android ecosystem revenues and profits improved slightly primarily on the back of Samsung’s quarterly results. As expected, iPhone units and revenues dipped again.

Bear in mind that in many areas of the USA, the 4G network is often used for computer data and Internet service.  So the growth of the mobile market does matter to PC users that do not have a cable or optical connection to the public  network.

Wait.... there is more.  Oops, not yet... Coming later. Sorry.
