If Reliance Jio looks at wooing 100 million customers in the next 12 months to 4G features devices, it would mean its competitors could lose at least 10 per cent of their subscribers. A large number of those migrating are expected to be the low-paying customers of the three incumbents. The incumbents could see pressure […]
But just how many will be available at launch? To reflect a slower start for production of the OLED iPhone model, J.P. Morgan is adjusting its forecast for the device from 9m units to ~2m units for September. It will, however, also increase its Y18 unit forecasts “by about the same amount to reflect time-shifted […]
I don’t think Apple (AAPL-$150) will be selling many iWatches this year. AAPL’s iPad sales are down 19 percent year over year, and iPhone sales have begun retreating. AAPL’s premium pricing strategy helps the company maintain strong margins but it limits sales growth. While first quarter revenues are up 4 percent from the same quarter […]
There’s no question that an Apple iPhone is an expensive device. The cheapest iPhone 7 will set you back $649. A fully tricked-out iPhone 7 Plus costs $969, which is really expensive for any smartphone. But if mobile market blogger’s prediction becomes reality, the iPhone 8 prices will reach a record high when it’s introduced […]
The company is offering a year of unlimited wireless service to new customers. Anyone with a competitor’s smart phone can get unlimited texting, calls, and data if they switch to Sprint. The pitch is aimed at Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE:VZ) customers but it’s likely to cause fallout across the whole sector. If stock prices are any guide, […]
The hotspot data and HD video streaming are both perks that you get with Verizon’s base plan, and are arguably necessities for heavy users. Without the One Plus perk, T-Mobile’s plan is significantly cheaper than Verizon’s: The T-Mobile One plan is $70 a month for one line, whereas Verizon is $80. Four lines on T-Mobile […]
OnePlus 5 is the latest flagship in the market and probably one of the most anticipated devices of this year. The Chinese smartphone maker’s latest device managed to turn many heads across the globe for obvious reasons. Everything from a top processor to a high-end camera setup defines OnePlus 5’s worth in the price-driven flagship […]
It’s surprising that the country’s major mobile operators haven’t trumpeted the death of R2 per megabyte (MB) charges for out-of-bundle data. That pricing – a staple of the industry since Vodacom’s launch of 3G services in 2004 – has practically disappeared. Vodacom, with over 50% market share in South Africa, has reduced out-of-bundle rates on prepaid […]
Chances are that Sprint, given its network quality and recent retail pricing actions, is also undercutting Verizon’s wholesale pricing. Though Comcast’s Xfinity Mobile pricing is competitive for users who — whether due to their mobile habits or proximity to Comcast hotspots — don’t need to consume a lot of mobile data, its unlimited data pricing […]
The email from Mr. Robinson filled in and substantiated the practical details. I’ll quote him, with his permission, as I go along. The first issue, as I’ve written myself, is that iPads, while less expensive than a MacBook AIr, don’t always fill the pedagogical bill. We did attempt iPads at middle and high school when […]
