Top 10 5G Countries in Asia by 2021
Until today, Asia is still leading the 5G adoption compared to other regions worldwide. GSMA Intelligence predicted that the region will have 1.2 billion 5G connections by 2025.
Early in the first quarter of 2021, China is leading the 5G network adoption with reports mentioning that they’ve reached more than 200 million 5G users. Following China, Japan and South Korea is also fast to adapt.
These are the top 10 countries 5G-connected countries in Asia by 2021 as forecasted by GSMA Intelligence until the end of Q4 2021.
Consumer Insight: New 5G Use Cases
The 5G network will be one of the keys in building an era of intelligent connectivity which is believed to transform businesses and support economic growth by deploying innovative new services.
From enterprises to consumers, the benefits of adopting a network with higher connectivity speed and lower latency will increase many things including efficiency for business operations and providing next-level experiences for consumers.
Despite the global pandemic, most operators in Asia and North America remain optimistic about deployments. As of Q4 2020, there are more than 130 mobile operators across 52 markets worldwide that have made the network accessible.
Not only are these expansions supported by policy makers and governments, the upgrade intent from consumers are also growing in most markets. The top 3 most appealing use cases for 5G to consumers are: 5G home broadband, enhanced video calling feature, and ultra-high definition movies and TVs for a next-level consumer entertainment experience.
Asia Pacific Consumer Insight: Mobile Phones & Entertainment
China is leading the 5G network adoption with reports mentioning that they’ve reached more than 200 million 5G users by first quarter of 2021. Following China, South Korea and Australia has been fast in adopting the new network as well. With this, Asia Pacific is predicted to keep on pioneering 5G. However, there are still barriers for adoption for 5G such as the technology being too expensive and that the consumers are still satisfied with the existing networks. The new 5G network also needs a specific phone to support the network therefore it adds an extra barrier to switch from one network generation to another.
Some survey takers also mention that the benefits of 5G is not as appealing to make them change networks. This could relate to the fact that people in Asia Pacific mostly use their mobile phone merely for mobile banking and video calling that does not necessarily require them to change to 5G network. Other than that, consumers in Asia Pacific uses mobile phone for entertainment which mostly is music streaming.
Despite these barriers to adopting the new 5G network, many organizations still predict that Asia Pacific is still going to lead the network adoption.
Internet of Things (IoT) Impact and Challenges for Enterprises
Internet of Things (IoT) can do a lot for enterprises including: help transform ways of working and doing business, as well as increasing operational efficiency. However, there are some challenges to implementing the technology - one of them being the pandemic that halted implementations in the short term.
A survey by GSMA Intelligence – covering almost 2,900 enterprises - showed that 65% of survey takers have deployed IoT in 2020 and have further plans to expand. Many of these enterprises see that IoT could be transformative to the company, meaning it brings distinct improvements to how the company operates.
One of the challenges that was voted the most was IT integration but employee resistance is also another reason why implementing new technology could be hard.
Digital Consumer Behavior Trends in 2021
Across many industries, there are shifts in consumer trends year to year. Through this infographic, we would like to show you the 2021 digital consumer trends for the telecommunications industry. 4 major things to look out for include: 5G network adoption, rise of the gaming industry, OTT versus Pay TV, changes in purchasing behavior.
In short, 5G-enabled mobile phones are still less likely to be a priority for many consumers. According to GSMA’s consumer survey data, more consumers are still relying on the basics such as battery life quality. However, adoption of 5G network will most likely be led by gamers as it will support an enhanced gaming experience.
Other than that, as individuals are looking for more entertainment, OTT and Pay TV are competing against each other. It’s forecasted that by 2025, Pay TV will still win in some countries.
As to purchasing mobile phones or other handsets online, most consumers still prefer visiting physical stores despite the risks of going outside.
As the vaccines are rolling out in many countries, we should see improvements in terms of how the world tackles the pandemic. Parallel to that, the 2021 digital consumer trend will likely to continue evolving through time given the uncertainties we’re still facing in the future.
2020 Telecommunications Industry Roundup
Welcome to the last week of 2020! A lot has happened this year, both the good and the challenges. Let’s take a look at the 2020 Telecommunications Industry Roundup.
This year, almost half of the world’s population are using mobile internet. This helps with connectivity during difficult times, to ensure everyone stays informed with the latest update on the pandemic.
Early in 2020, 5G deployments were halted due to the pandemic. But coming into the second half of the year, deployments restarted and, approaching the end of 2020, 5G is available from more than 178 mobile operators in over 80 countries.
During the year of the lockdown, consumer behaviour has shifted as well. Data traffic surges were reported from mobile operators across the world as individuals staying at home sought new ways of living and consuming entertainment.
