China’s Telecom Industry By The Numbers [INFOGRAPHIC]
The Infographic of the Day series visually expresses important stories from Asia and the world of technology.
Thanks to Sunny over at TechRice for pointing out this absolutely wonderful graphic created by NetEase Tech. It provides an excellent overview of the Chinese telecom industry, and gives us more than a few crunchy factoids:
・China has 930 million phone users
・China Mobile and China Unicom have 628 and 186 million respectively, as we pointed out a few days ago in our own chart. China Telecom has 113 million.
・Android is the leading smartphone OS, at 43 percent. Symbian and iOS are next with 22 and 18 percent respectively.
・70 percent of cellphones are made in China.
All that information aside, I’m a little bit jealous over how well made this graphic is. NetEase Tech has made hotspots within the graphic linked to previous content which provides more information on that section. From a publishing perspective that’s amazingly slick. We’ve reposted it below, but if you can read Chinese, do drop over and see the original version and explore the Netease links.
