Professor Kaili Kan from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, who also an expert in telecom industry has said that Wi-Fi is more suited for China then 3G.
In an interview with Sohu.com Professor Kan mentioned that user demand in China’s market for 3G is very small and inspite of this operators have invested large amount of money in it.
“But 3G devices still have failed to satisfy large amount of user who are surfing Internet”, he said.
