BEIJING (China Daily/ANN): For Zhang Qiang, who runs a smartphone store in Beijing, November was a very busy month. Eight out of 10 potential customers who visited his store bought a 5G smartphone each.

"Most of them came to check out 5G handsets. Not everyone bought one, but I can see mounting enthusiasm for 5G. Days of Covid-19-related hardship may be finally making way for good days," Zhang said.
