By the End of 2022, Mexico Will Have 100 Cities With 5G Service

America Movil reported that the transition of subscribers and traffic to its 5G network had progressed. The telco highlighted that in Mexico, where prepaid lines predominate, 5G services are contributing to a rise in demand for postpaid mobile subscriptions. To end September with 81.8 million cellphone users—a 3.1% increase over the previous year—they recruited 443,000 new members in the third quarter, including 41,000 postpaid customers and 402,000 prepaid customers. According to the carrier, they have noticed increasing trends in postpaid growth associated with our 5G services.

The telco’s average revenue per user is rising as a result of a significant movement of subscribers from 4G to 5G, as stated by the company’s CEO Daniel Hajj. By the end of this year, the telco hopes to have 5G equipment installed in roughly 100 Mexican cities.

More than 48 million people were served when America Movil introduced 5G services in February in 18 of Mexico’s largest cities. Initial 5G deployments were made by the corporation, which competes in the mobile phone market under the Telcel name, in Mexico City, Monterrey, Guadalajara, Tijuana, and Puebla, among other cities. At least ten markets, mostly in Latin America, are served by America Movil. The telco has a small stake in Telekom Austria and KPN, two operators in Europe.
