Samsung & LG For China Mobile 3G Mobile Phone

Samsung Electronics, LG Electronics, ZTE (China), Datang (China) and Motorola (USA) are being mentioned for mobile phone supplier for China Mobile, the biggest Chinese telecommunication service provider, which is processing TD-SCDMA type 3G mobile telecommunication service.

According to Shanghai Daily on 29th, China Mobile, which is processing TD-SCDMA service, is planning to purchase the terminals from 18 manufacturers worldwide with 4 billion wian (490 billion won).

TD-SCDMA Forum managing director Chen Haofei said, "China Mobile invested 6 to 7 billion wian for 3G network structure and is planning to purchase 2 million units of TD-SCDMA type mobile phone. 18 companies including Samsung, LG, Haier, ZTE and TCL will share the order for TD-SCDMA mobile phone, and prior 6 to 7 suppliers will take 60%."

Even though he didn`t specified the suppliers, but Shanghai Daily reported that Samsung Electronics, LG Electronics, ZTE, Datang and Motorola were on the list.

Officials of Samsung Electronics and LG Electronics said, "We`ve been processing the network interlocking test with sample products. Since Korean products have higher technical power for video call and others, we expect the good result."

Chinese government hasn`t given 3G service license but China Mobile is constructing TD-SCDMA network in 10 cities including Shanghai and Beijing. It seems that the company would process the rapid 3G business with mobile phones as soon as the network is completed and the government gives the permission.

The price of TD-SCDMA mobile phone will be around 2,000 to 3,000 wian and the phone that China Mobile is testing now is 2,500 wian. Nokia has announced that the company would sell TD-SCDMA mobile phone in China in the 1st half of next year.
