In 2024, China Mobile, one of the world’s largest telecommunications companies, finds itself at the crossroads of technological evolution and market expansion. Over two decades, the company has built a reputation as the leader in China’s telecom sector. But as the digital age unfolds, China Mobile’s ambitions extend far beyond just providing mobile connectivity—they now seek to redefine what it means to be a global digital service provider. Here’s a story of how China Mobile’s 2024 business strategy embodies this transformation.
Maintaining Market Leadership in a Changing Domestic Landscape
In China, where competition from rivals like China Telecom and China Unicom is growing fierce, China Mobile continues to reign supreme. The company knows that maintaining its dominance in the domestic market is essential, especially as mobile penetration saturates. By 2024, China Mobile isn’t just holding its ground; it’s innovating, using its vast resources to offer an array of mobile and broadband services tailored to an increasingly digital-first population.
But being the largest isn’t enough. China Mobile’s strategy includes aggressive customer retention programs, leveraging AI and big data to understand individual user preferences. The company launches personalized plans, ensuring customer loyalty in both urban centers and the vast rural regions where connectivity is more than a convenience—it’s a lifeline.
Venturing Beyond Borders: The Call for International Expansion
Even with its dominance in China, China Mobile understands the importance of looking outward. While its international presence has historically been limited, 2024 marks a shift in strategy. The company has set its sights on emerging markets across Asia, Africa, and Latin America—regions where mobile infrastructure is still developing, but where the demand for connectivity and digital services is booming.
Instead of a traditional approach, China Mobile forms partnerships with local governments and operators, offering cost-effective solutions tailored to the unique needs of these markets. The company’s ability to scale its massive network infrastructure expertise makes it a natural leader for these regions, and it’s this long-term vision that positions it as a key player on the global stage.
Technological Innovation: Leading the 5G and 6G Charge
By 2024, China Mobile is already at the forefront of 5G deployment, but they are not stopping there. Their aggressive investment in next-gen infrastructure has given them a lead that few can rival. 5G isn’t just about faster mobile speeds; for China Mobile, it’s the gateway to an entirely new world of services.
From industrial IoT applications to AI-powered smart cities, 5G enables China Mobile to redefine industries. The company partners with manufacturing giants, healthcare providers, and even government agencies to embed 5G into their operations. Meanwhile, in labs across China, 6G is already on the horizon, with China Mobile funding research initiatives that could bring the world closer to a new era of communication, one where virtual and augmented reality, along with autonomous systems, are commonplace.
Diversifying into Digital Services: The Road to Transformation
China Mobile’s leadership recognizes that the future lies beyond traditional telecom services. The company is making an all-out push into digital services, turning itself into a one-stop shop for cloud computing, AI, and big data solutions. Its cloud offerings, “China Mobile Cloud,” quickly grow into a powerful alternative to local tech giants like Alibaba and Tencent, providing competitive solutions to enterprises seeking digital transformation.
Leveraging its vast data network, China Mobile also becomes a significant player in the AI space, offering predictive analytics and machine learning services to businesses across China and beyond. But perhaps the most revolutionary of its new ventures is in IoT. With its robust 5G network, China Mobile leads the charge in IoT solutions, enabling the rise of smart cities, connected vehicles, and AI-powered industries.
Sustainability: A New Era of Green Technology
As global awareness of environmental issues grows, China Mobile commits to becoming a leader in sustainability. The company pledges to cut its carbon emissions and deploys cutting-edge technologies to power its network with renewable energy sources. Green 5G becomes a reality, with China Mobile using energy-efficient base stations and AI to manage network loads, ensuring optimal energy use.
This eco-friendly approach isn’t just good for public relations—it’s a part of China Mobile’s long-term vision. The company understands that for it to thrive in the next decade, it must balance growth with responsibility. As the world moves toward stricter environmental regulations, China Mobile’s proactive stance on green technology keeps it ahead of the curve.
Customer-Centric Innovation: Elevating User Experience
Understanding the pulse of its customers has always been China Mobile’s strength. In 2024, this takes on a new meaning with AI-powered insights enabling hyper-personalized services. Customers receive real-time recommendations for service upgrades, data packages, and even lifestyle services through the company’s seamless digital platforms. The integration of AI with customer service makes for smoother interactions, reducing friction and boosting satisfaction.
Additionally, China Mobile taps into the growing demand for digital lifestyle products, offering streaming services, exclusive content deals, and even cloud gaming—ensuring it becomes more than just a telecom provider, but an integral part of the daily digital experience of its customers.
Strategic Partnerships: Expanding Beyond Borders and Beyond Telecom
Collaboration is at the heart of China Mobile’s business strategy. The company forms strategic alliances with global tech players such as Huawei, ZTE, and other key industry leaders. These partnerships fuel innovation in 5G, AI, and IoT solutions. But China Mobile also looks beyond its traditional boundaries, forming joint ventures with cloud and cybersecurity firms to ensure its dominance in the enterprise digital services market.
At home, the company works closely with the Chinese government, not just to adhere to regulations but to help drive national initiatives like “Digital China.” It’s a symbiotic relationship—China Mobile is instrumental in helping the government roll out digital infrastructure, while government policies help China Mobile maintain its leadership position.
Facing Challenges and Navigating Risks
No strategy is without challenges. China Mobile must navigate the increasingly competitive telecom market, both at home and abroad. Rivals like China Telecom, new market entrants, and over-the-top (OTT) services like WeChat and Douyin are all vying for market share. On the global front, the company faces regulatory hurdles, especially as geopolitical tensions between the U.S. and China continue to influence tech policies worldwide.
Moreover, technological disruption is a constant threat. The rise of satellite internet providers like Starlink could challenge the traditional mobile network model. But China Mobile’s agility, strong financial position, and constant innovation keep it prepared to adapt.
The Future: A Vision of Connectivity and Digital Transformation
In 2024, China Mobile is more than just a telecom company—it is a leader in digital transformation. With a business strategy rooted in technological innovation, sustainability, and customer-centricity, the company is poised for growth, both domestically and internationally. Its investments in 5G, cloud computing, AI, and IoT services position it not only as a key player in the telecom space but as a pioneer in the digital future.
As China Mobile continues to expand into new markets, lead the charge in next-gen technology, and build a sustainable, customer-focused business, it remains at the forefront of the global digital revolution. The company’s 2024 strategy is not just about connecting people—it’s about creating a smarter, more connected world.

If you are trying to choose the most “all-round” one of this year’s flagship phones, OnePlus 8 Pro and OnePlus 8 will be on the list. Among the flagship phones, it has the strongest “Loaded” hardware and the “fastest” 120Hz screen. Of all the high-quality phones,
- It has the most “clear” QHD+ display
- Accurate colour reproduction
- The most “cool” high-frame screen adaptation of MEMC
The camera performance of OnePlus 8 Pro and Oneplus 8 is also very good. OnePlus 8 Pro is the model with the most cameras in OnePlus. Among the four cameras on it, our favourite is its ultra-wide-angle camera with IMX586 sensor. Now more details on OnePlus 8 / Oneplus 8 Pro 
Special colour scheme and a rare good feel. One plus 8 is more attractive to me is the design and feel the performance. Among the new phones released recently, similar body colour options of the OnePlus 8 series are few. Picture from OnePlus officialGeeks, Techies who follow OnePlus should have seen that the sky blue version in the official promotional poster looks light green. After checking the real machine, we found one can see many different colour effects as the angle of light changes but more often it looks light blue. Whether it looks good or not is a matter of opinion, but the feel is special. Relative to the colour that we see in pictures, holding the phone in hand gives feeling of more royal colours. Unless you get it yourself, it is difficult for you to perceive its actual looks. Having said that, you can still get a rough idea by the three aspects of aesthetics process, weight and measurements. Besides adopting a new generation of AG technology, another thing that OnePlus started to do this year is to reduce weight for phones. While retaining the metal middle frame, OnePlus 8 still controls the weight at a good level of 180 grams. This even 10 grams lighter than the OnePlus 7T released in the second half of last year. The pressure on the little finger and wrist is much less. The body measurements are right. According to the official data, the body length of OnePlus 8 is 160.94 mm, the width is 74.44 mm, and the thickness is 8.13 mm. Due to the narrower left and right widths, the cover is treated with a certain arc. It’s not difficult to hold with one hand even for person with small palms. At present, if you are more concerned about the performance of grip, OnePlus 8 may be one of the best choices.
90Hz – 120 Hz top screen quality OnePlus 8 also uses a customized AMOLED flexible screen from Samsung with a size of 6.55 inches, a resolution of 2400 X 1080, and 402 ppi. It has passed DisplayMate A + and HDR10 + certification. Each screen will be colour-calibrated before leaving the factory. The two “Hertz”, its screen touch sampling rate is 180Hz, and the refresh rate is still the familiar 90Hz. As far as refresh rate is concerned, OnePlus 8 is top-notch and does not even lose to some 144Hz refresh rate phones. The screen curvature is smaller than the previous generation products. The benefits are in two aspects. One is to increase the effective display area of the screen. On the one hand, it can reduce the natural edge colour deviation of the curved screen. As for the problem of false touch, although it is still unavoidable, it has made great progress recently with the system version update. As far as the display quality is concerned, the OnePlus 8 screen shows a good performance in colour accuracy and transparency. There is nothing to say about the screen fingerprint. Both the unlocking speed and the recognition accuracy are the same as OnePlus 8 Pro, which is at the top level in the industry. OnePlus moved fingerprint module slightly up this time, thus improving one-hand.
Rear Camera, long-lost portrait arrangement. After entering 2020, many manufacturers have changed the rear camera to a rectangular design. OnePlus 8 series is one of the few new phones that use a vertical arrangement and place the camera in the centre of the back. A good screen look and feel makes us more comfortable while using phones. In the daily use of phones, “photography” is one of the more frequently used functions. Today’s smartphones vary in the number of lenses, but the functions are the same. That is to use the “super wide-angle”, “wide-angle” and “telephoto” and other lenses of different focal lengths, to create a full scene shooting. This time, the OnePlus 8 Pro uses “dual 48 million ultra-clear four shots”. The four lenses are a high-quality main shot, an ultra-wide-angle lens, a telephoto lens, and a filter lens. Four lenses constitute a “3+1 imaging system” to meet the shooting needs of the whole scene. In actual use, the operation interface of OnePlus 8 Pro is also simple enough, without the need to adjust complex parameters. The main camera is the one with the some highest pixel in our daily life. OnePlus 8 Pro’s main camera uses Sony IMX689 sensor, with a 1/1.4-inch outsole and f/1.78 aperture. 1) It supports 10-bit colour depth RAW output, which provides richer photos for professionals2) New “full-pixel Omni-directional focusing technology”, enables the sensor to focus quickly using pixel synthesis 3) It further improves focusing speed even in the dark light, can achieve focus in the shortest time.4) Shutter button clicks quick photos with extreme clarity.
BatteryAs for the battery life that everyone is more concerned about, the battery capacity of OnePlus 8 is 4300mAh, which supports Warp 30T wired flash charging, but does not support wireless charging. From our actual test data, using the original charger can charge from 0 to 10% in 5 minutes, 22% in 10 minutes, 46% in 20 minutes, and 66% in 30 minutes. 100% takes about 61 minutes, and the overall charging speed is not bad. Also, when the 90Hz mode is turned on, under normal use (non-long-term gaming), OnePlus 8 can roughly hold the charge for one day.
Snapdragon 865, UFS3.0, 4300mAh
The core hardware configuration part, OnePlus 8 is equipped with the top Snapdragon 865 SoC and X55 5G chips in the current Android camp.
It supports two networking modes of SA and NSA, covering n1, n3, n41, n78, n79 and other mainstream 5G frequency bands.
Available in 8GB + 128GB and 12GB + 256GB storage combinations (LPDDR4X + UFS3.0).
According to the Antutu, OnePlus 8 scored 582,741 points. It is no problem to run the popular mobile games on the market such as Honor of Kings, PUBG.

Dual speakers, WiFi 6 and final verdict
Looking back at OnePlus 8, the biggest advantage of this product is that it has a rare feel and excellent screen quality of the current 5G phone products, and these two improvements to the actual user experience are real. At the same time, the combination of Snapdragon 865 + UFS3.0 is also sufficient to meet the needs of users including game scenarios. Also to the ones we mentioned above, it hasn’t dropped other points that people are more concerned about, such as dual speakers, multi-function NFC, and WiFi 6. Its slightly regrettable, to reduce the weight and thickness of the frame, it cancelled wireless charging. The powerful performance, the smoothness brought by the ultra-high 120Hz refresh rate, and the high frame rate 2.0 experience. These are key points which sets oneplus 8 series apart. This also helps it run through the entire scene of games, audio and video, systems, etc with amazing smoothness.

Unlike the end to end capabilities of the Vivo X series and the innovative products of the NEX series, the Vivo S (Selfie) series has always focused on the design and photographing capabilities, and the target segment is mainly youngsters who are pursuing fashionable products and like flaunting their styles in photos. The Vivo S6 still continues this tradition, and at the same time, it has also followed up support for 5G networks this time. Let’s go through its capabilities in details.
Vivo S6 6.44-inch screen
After entering 2020, manufacturers have been surprisingly consistent in the choice of screen types and resolutions. Apart from a few folding screen mobile phones, most of the new conventional mobile phones recently released are designed for infinity screens.
Some “surprise” is that this time Vivo S6 did not do this. It uses a waterdrop screen (AMOLED material) that was very popular last year. The screen size is 6.44 inches and the resolution is 2400 × 1080.
The reason why I was a little surprised is that on the S5 released last year, Vivo has equipped it with a very small aperture screen, according to common sense S6 should go further. However, if you consider this issue from the perspective of cost control, it is actually not difficult to understand. If you want to support 5G and push down the price, you always have to make some trade-offs.
Vivo S6 continues to use the AMOLED display from Samsung in the display specifications. It is this uncompromising high-end procurement standard for devices that makes vivo never compromise on the low-end low-cost. The size of 6.44 inches is quite moderate, taking into account the visual experience and portability, while the 2400 × 1080 resolution and bright colors are also a highlight of the display of this mobile phone screen.
It is worth mentioning that the Vivo S6 screen supports the SRE function, which can provide users with clear visual experience in bright light environments. At the same time, Vivo S6 supports low-brightness anti-screen flash function, changes the screen brightness through the Dimlayer mask algorithm, which greatly reduces the eye fatigue caused by the low-brightness flicker of the OLED screen, and the jitter interpolation algorithm optimizes the transition effect and color compensation algorithm Optimize color consistency and adjust screen brightness and display effects.
From a visual point of view, the width of the top, left, and right borders are well controlled, and the bottom border is slightly wider. Also, it supports low-brightness visibility flash function, you can choose to turn on or off according to your needs.
It has Screen fingerprints function, Vivo claims that it uses the latest screen fingerprint solution this time. Actually, the unlock speed and accuracy are not only good, but it is equivalent to iQOO 3, which is more advanced.
A variety of color options, excellent feel
The back cover is a highlight of Vivo S6. Compared with the previous generation, the obvious change is that the camera part has been changed from the previous diamond shape to the same round shape as the NEX 3. At the same time, a textured design similar to vinyl has been added to the back cover. The feeling of holding Vivo S6 in hand is quite unique.
In terms of color matching, this time it has three options: Lake Blue, Sky Light Blue and Jazzy Black. Among them, the Lake blue color matching adopts the gradient between blue and white. At the same time, the frosted texture is added to the color coating of the cover, and the sky blue version adds a layer of silver coating based on the gradient color. As for which version is better, it is a subjective issue, and everyone can choose according to their own preferences.
Compared with the overall appearance we liked its grip. The body length of Vivo S6 is 161.16 mm, the width is 74.66 mm, the thickness is 8.68 mm, and the weight is controlled at 181 grams. In today’s era where 5G mobile phones easily exceed 200 grams or even 220 grams, such lightweight is excellent.
Also, in addition to weight, many factors affect the actual grip of mobile phones. In vivo S6, it is due to the use of a 20: 9 screen, the overall body of the frame looks slender. The left and right edges of the frame are with a certain degree of curve, even for users with relatively small palms Vivo S6 is very easy to hold. This phone is one of the best grips of all the phones I’ve held in recent times.
Vivo S6 Four rear cameras, 48 Megapixel and Front Camera 32 Megapixel
In the image part, the front camera of Vivo S6 is 32 Megapixels, f / 2.08 aperture. In order to enhance the self-timer effect, this phone integrates a soft light ring function in the screen. When turned on in a dark light environment, the phone screen changes directly into a ring-shaped fill plate, which effectively compensates for the imaging effect under dim light conditions. With the help of manual adjustment of the aperture blur And filters and other functions, bring more outstanding natural selfie.
It makes the color temperature of the fill light more suitable for the ambient light, to ensure the uniformity of the character’s facial skin tone. At the same time, this time Vivo S6 has further improved its AI-enabled beauty enhancement capabilities. You can choose the specific sections in photos you want to optimize according to your needs.
The rear camera adopts a four-camera design of the main camera + super wide-angle lens + macro lens + depth of field lens. The main camera is 48 Megapixels, using the Samsung GM2 sensor, F1.79 aperture. The super wide-angle lens is 8 million pixels, the largest The viewing angle is 112 °, and both the macro lens and the depth of field lens are 2 Megapixels.
The following is pictures taken by Vivo S6, without any post-processing:
2x zoom
Portrait mode
Macro mode
Exynos 980 platform, 4500mAh large battery
In terms of core hardware configuration, Vivo S6 is equipped with the Exynos 980 5G platform jointly developed by Vivo and Samsung, which provides 8GB + 128GB and 8GB + 256GB storage options.
Exynos 980 CPU performance has been improved by 20% compared to Cortex-A76, GPU performance has been improved by 30%, and machine learning ability is comparable. It is 2.7 times faster than before.
Also, as the industry’s first batch of 5G SoC chips, Exynos 980 can support both NSA and SA networking modes, covering the current mainstream 5G frequency bands such as n1 / n3 / n77 / n41 / n78.
In terms of 5G-related features, Exynos 980 can reach a maximum download speed of 2.55Gbps in a 5G network environment, and a maximum download speed of 3.55Gbps in a 4G and 5G dual connection environment. In other words, Vivo S6 can handle 4G and 5G the complex alternating networks with ease and still provide you with a good experience.
As for the battery life part that everyone is more concerned about, its battery capacity is 4500mAh, which is 400mAh more than the previous generation. The benefits brought by the large battery are also obvious. From my personal usage habits, I can basically charge one and a half days. However, because it supports 18W fast charging (22.5W in the previous generation), and the battery capacity is larger, the time required to fully charge the battery is relatively longer.
Vivo S6 is amazing mid-range 5G phone
I believe everyone also feels that because the cost is difficult to come down at this stage, the pricing of 5G mobile phones is generally higher than that of 4G mobile phones, especially the flagship products equipped with Snapdragon 865 chips are basically more than 3,000 yuan/ 420 USD/ 29000 INR.
Vivo S6 is such a product. As a mid-range 5G mobile phone, it will have a relatively low pricing pressure. The 8GB + 128GB version is 2698 yuan, and the 8GB + 256GB is 2998 yuan/ 420 USD/ 29900 INR. In addition, to the capability of supporting dual-mode 5G, its appearance, design, and ability to take pictures is at a very good level.
Everyone has their own inspection standards when starting a mobile phone product. For young users groups who pay more attention to appearance and camera effects, Vivo S6 is still an attractive option. If you want to pursue the ultimate performance, then the flagship machine equipped with Snapdragon 865 is obviously more in line with your requirements, of course, the budget should be correspondingly higher.
Grabbing food in the middle of the night for 2 minutes is favourite things done by many working people in china. Online orders soared six or seven times during lockdown in china as reported by various food delivery apps in china like Meituan-Dianping and ele.me .
Nearly 200 million people nationwide worked from home in this sudden epidemic. This let the business model based on digital economy show its unique advantages. The digital economy, not only safeguarded normal day to day living needs during the epidemic, but also played an important role in urban management, transportation and logistics, and production.
format of digital economy further strengthened new economic models
Speaking of the impact of the current epidemic on China’s economy, Lian Weiliang, deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that the epidemic mainly affected consumption of services such as transportation, cultural tourism, hotels, restaurants, film and entertainment. But at the same time, the digital economy and new business formats such as online shopping, online food ordering, and online entertainment are very active.
Since the implementation of the epidemic control and lockdown measures, the online “home economy” has entered a rising phase. Previously the response was tepid for online education, online shopping, remote collaborative office and other online services. But during lockdown this models have provided users with a more direct experience and benefits. Theseare implicitly cultivating and transferring user purchasing habits, which will bring more business opportunities. Make more digital applications and services to stand out from traditional models.
The development of new areas such as modern logistics systems, remote offices, and online medical services has satisfied people’s needs during the epidemic, reduced service personnel movements, reduced the risk of epidemic transmission, and made important contributions to stable economic growth in china. At the same time, the stagnation of social functions under the epidemic situation has been alleviated, reflecting the vitality and advantages of the digital economy, and highlighting the value and potential of the digital economy.
The sustained development of the digital economy under the epidemic has benefited from China’s focus and accumulation of technological advantages, especially big data, artificial intelligence, 5G and other technologies. Which have effectively promoted economic transformation. These technologies during epidemic prevention and control helped in streamlining people’s work and Life providing strong support.
Although the offline service industry relying on passenger traffic has been greatly affected in the short term, the continued development of new formats and models of the digital economy reflects the huge potential of the Chinese market. The trend of consumption upgrade to new economy continues and there is enough space to ensure the Chinese economy’s fundamentals for long-term positive and high-quality growth remain unchanged.
Enterprises seized the opportunity of digital transformation
Since the outbreak of the epidemic, temporary isolation has not blocked people’s life completely but they felt the charm of digital technology and the digital economy more closely. And Chinese digital technology enterprises are also participating in the epidemic prevention and control and economic reconstruction in an all-round way through digitalization and intelligence through flexible and diversified innovative technological means. Bringing light, Hope and confidence to the people in the fog of new coronavirus
If SARS in 2003 opened the door to the Internet and digital industrialization, then the new Covid-19 epidemic may become a key node that stimulates the digital transformation of SMEs and the acceleration of industrial digitalization. Under the influence of the epidemic, more and more SMEs are beginning to realize the importance of digitalization due to losses some of them faced due to non-integrating with digital consumer ecosystem.
Under the pressure of the epidemic, many companies are finding ways to digitally transform and innovate. On the one hand, companies are starting from the key needs of customers and the market, seize the key elements to promote business growth, and realize product and service innovation through new technologies, new models, and new channels. On the other hand, they are relying on digital analysis of the company’s existing architecture and applications, strategizing the business’s dependence on systems and softwares, formulating a comprehensive and effective well-organized migration plan, and proceeding in an orderly manner.
Whoever can seize the market newly formed needs will be the one to seize blue ocean of the new digital era post coronavirus epidemic. One who transforms in this adversity, will see gain in larger market share when “spring” arrives.
As Chinese Government said, “At present, the Chinese are still fighting the epidemic intensively, and the economy will be affected in the short term. However, the rapid development of the digital economy will largely hedge against the negative impact of the epidemic. A huge Chinese market is still there, and the fundamentals of China’s long-term fundamentals and high-quality growth have not changed. China is confident and capable of defeating the epidemic and maintaining long-term stable economic development. “
