"According to the analyst's Asia-Pacific Total mobile broadband forecast model (Q3 2025) report, 5G uptake in the Asia-Pacific region is set to accelerate at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.4%, from 2.7 billion in 2025 to 4.6 billion in 2030. This growth, said the analyst, reflects the rapid adoption of low-cost 5G devices, continued network roll-outs in markets such as India, Malaysia and Thailand, and forthcoming service launches in Pakistan and Sri Lanka."
"Data in the report showed that China will remain the largest 5G market in the world through the forecast period, with about 75% of its total mobile subscriptions to be on a 5G network in the country by 2029, primarily driven by investments and the local regulator's efforts to expand 5G service coverage to rural areas and industrial parks, and boost 5G adoption."
