Unicom

China Unicom, operating under MCC 460 and MNC 09, is a major mobile network operator in China, providing comprehensive telecommunications services across the country. As one of the "big three" telcos in China, alongside China Mobile and China Telecom, China Unicom plays a significant role in connecting hundreds of millions of subscribers. Its network infrastructure supports a range of services, from basic voice calls and SMS messaging to advanced 4G LTE and increasingly, 5G data connectivity. Like China Mobile, it serves not only the bustling urban centres but also expansive rural areas, contributing significantly to China's digital infrastructure and economy. Competing fiercely within the massive Chinese telecom market, China Unicom distinguishes itself through its service offerings and network technologies. It has been seen to target a more diverse consumer base by offering data-centric package deals, and it has also fostered international partnerships to enhance its roaming services and introduce innovative technologies. Being based in mainland China, its network reaches across most of Asia and the Middle East too. As China continues its rapid technological advancement, China Unicom remains a key player in driving 5G adoption and digital transformation, impacting both domestic and international connectivity.
