China Mobile to release 5G phones in H1, top executive says 5G手机要来啦!
China Mobile, the country's largest telecom carrier(电信运营商), is set to release its first batch(批次)of 5G mobile phones in the first half of the year, said Jian Qin, vice-president of the company at a convention yesterday, wallstreetcn.com reported.
The prices of 5G mobile phones are set to fall to around 1,000 to 2,000 yuan ($145-290)in 2020, added the vice-president at the ongoing seventh China Internet Audio & Video Convention held in Chengdu, Southwest China's Sichuan province.
According to Jian, China Mobile users can enjoy 5G networks by using current(当前的)SIM cards and phone numbers without re-registration(重复注册). 5G users will be billed(付款) by flow(流量), rate, bandwidth(带宽), time delay and functions, he added.
"4G changed our lives, and 5G will change the society," Jian said, adding that 5G is not simply 4G plus 1G, but will provide infrastructure(基础设施)support to deep integration(整合) of various industries.
China Mobile established its 5G joint innovation(创新)center in 2016 and built 22 open laboratories and five industry alliances to boost(促进、提高)innovation capability of the industry. The company launched (开展)China's first 5G Multimedia Innovation Alliance (5MII) in 2017, covering whole industrial chain links(产业链)of digital media such as content production, transfer, distribution, and consumption.
The innovation of personal applications in the 5G era remains another priority of the company, as China Mobile is establishing its 5G ultra(很，非常)high-definition(高清的)live stream, video, and game services to improve user experiences.
Wang Xiaochu, chairman of China Unicom, another main telecom operator of the country, announced the company will launch 5G trial networks in 40 Chinese cities at a conference in Shanghai on April 23.
China Unicom also invited 60 leading enterprises(企业)in setting up the China Unicom 5G Application Innovation Alliance.
Rival China Telecom, according to its 5G technical white paper released last year, will start 5G innovationtrialsin 17 cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen, according to media reports.

Limit placed on number of visitors to Great Wall 长城游客限制令?
热点聚焦
The number of daily visitors to the Badaling section of the Great Wall will be restricted and online ticket sales introduced to ease congestion(拥挤) at the world-famous site, tourism authorities said on Tuesday.
The 65,000 limit was set after research on the optimal(最佳的) capacity for the scenic spot in accordance with guidelines from the China National Tourism Administration.
The restrictions(限制)were put in place torelievepressure and safety concerns created by the large crowds at Badaling, located in Beijing's Yanqing district.
"When I visited the Badaling part of the Great Wall last summer I could barely(几乎不)move, there were too many people," said Rui Nate, a student from Peking University.
"I believe the policy of setting a daily quota(配额)may prevent extreme peaks in the number of visitors."
In 2018, the Badaling Great Wall received more than 9.9 million visitors, and there was an unbalanced distribution of visitors in the off season and peak season, especially during the
holidays. The number of visitors hit 80,000 a day during the National Day holidays in 2018, placing huge pressure on reception staff.
As part of a more fluid(流动的)ticketing system, admission tickets carrying the visitor's name will be available through an online booking system from June 1. It is similar to the "real-name" ticketing system used at the Palace Museum which encourages visitors to book in advance online.
Visitors, including individuals and group tours, will be able to purchase the admission ticket seven days in advance using a valid(有效的)ID or passport. Tickets will be restricted to one per identity document.
"This is not the first time that a scenic spot has adopted online ticketing, and it will reduce waiting time and provide a more comfortable experience for the visitors," said Song Rui, director of the Tourism Research Center at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
Online ticket bookings are available on the official website, ticket.badaling.cn. Visitors can also follow the WeChat account of the Badaling Great Wall for more ticket information.
Local tourists can access the Great Wall with their ID cards. Foreign tourists can redeem(兑换) printed electronic tickets at the service window near the gate with the online reservation(预订) certificate(凭证)then enter the Great Wall with the printed ticket.
As a symbol of Chinese culture and a world cultural heritage(遗产)spot, Badaling is by far the most popular section of the ancient defensive(防御用的)barrier(屏障), attracting millions of tourists from home and abroad every year.
