4G LTE Phone
Launched the first rural LTE mobile broadband service across Germany on December 1, 2010. Around 1,500 base stations incorporated LTE technology by end March 2011, serving thousands of communities. LTE pilot locations have been established in Berlin. Vodafone plans to eventually upgrade all base stations in Germany to LTE.
NTT DOCOMO Launched Japans first commercial LTE system on December 24, 2010 The company said that voice calls using Xi will become possible sometime within the fiscal year starting in April 2011 Xi service was initially available in the Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka areas; other major cities and regions will follow. China Mobile China Mobile has now launched large-scale LTE TDD trials consisting of more than 1,000 base stations in Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Nanjing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Xiamen. Commercial services are expected to launch in 2012.
