The number of global 5G subscriptions quadrupled in the fourth quarter of 2019, showing just how quickly users are adopting the newest generation of cellular technology when it becomes available to them.
A new report from the Global mobile Suppliers Association, based on numbers provided by research firm Omdia (made up of Informa Tech’s research brands plus IHS Markit’s tech research portfolio) says that 5G subscriptions reached at least 17.73 million as of the end of 2019, more than quadrupling in the last quarter of the year.
