With the rapid development of the mobile Internet in India, the number of users who surf the internet with their mobile devices is still declining, which is a constant decline. India's mobile internet usage has grown strongly, with a share of nearly 50% in March and April this year, knowing that January 2009 is only a poor 2% and January 2011 is only 18%.
It can be seen how fast the development of mobile Internet in India over the past year. The reason behind this is mainly because the high internet costs in India are daunting to many people, and the lack of infrastructure has led to the inability of rural areas to use the Internet. In this context, mobile devices as a network access point came into being, it is not only low-cost, but also convenient and fast, can be in a short span of time to develop so quickly also is not surprising.
Although India's 2010-year introduction of 3G technology, relatively late, and according to the GSMA (Global Mobile Communications Association) data, as of 2010, India's 3G internet speed of the world's slowest, but there is good news, India Airtel last month, said the upcoming 4G network services, is already under development. In addition, because of the poor in India, the telephone tariffs are cheap, which is one of the reasons for the rapid development of the mobile Internet in India.
India is a good example of how mobile Internet development is breaking the traditional internet landscape. India's internet penetration rate is still less than 10%, but given the emergence of mobile devices as a network access point, India's Internet penetration will be greatly improved.
Currently, the use of mobile Internet is increasing in most regions and countries around the world, thanks to the growing popularity of smartphones, the global smartphone shipments grew 42.5% annually. And India's fixed-line network access rate has been relatively low, so the mobile Internet in India's prospects will be more significant.
