China hits 432 million mobile phone users, so says a piece by Dan Nystedt, IDG News Service, this week. This happened in July according to the government. This is far and away the most of any single country in the world.
Chinese users are signing up for mobile phone service at a far faster pace than for fixed line service. The figures show that China continues to outpace India, which has claimed its mobile phone growth now matches China.
The number of mobile users in China is nearly double that of the U.S., estimated at 218.2 million as of Wednesday, according to the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA), an industry organization.
