China Mobile leads its domestic rivals, measured by mobile subscribers.

However, in the 3G telecom service market, the competition is more evenly matched.

By November, China Mobile had 82.43 million 3G users, followed by China Unicom's 73.32 million and China Telecom's 65.85 million.

China Mobile is pinning its hopes on 4G and its network is considered better prepared than those of its smaller rivals.

Ji Chendong, a telecom analyst with KPMG China, said China Telecom is also at a crossroads in choosing a 4G technology standard.

Wang said the company is awaiting official approval on the standards it plans to adopt.

China had 1.1 billion mobile users by November and almost 20 percent of them were 3G users, according to figures from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
