Description

"MediaTalk" host Mike Reynolds sits down with S&P Global Market Intelligence Kagan analyst Lynnette Luna to dive into the US wireless market. At the national level, they focus on the second-quarter performance of the top three operators: AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon. T-Mobile continues to lead in subscriber growth and service revenue, showcasing its strong momentum in the market. AT&T is leveraging its convergence strategy, integrating fiber and wireless services to enhance customer retention and drive growth. Meanwhile, Verizon is navigating challenges in retaining postpaid subscribers, yet is stabilizing its performance through prepaid offerings and value-added bundles.

Utilizing proprietary Kagan survey data, they also look at what is happening at a city-level, including which players are gaining share. Specifically, the discussion also highlights the increasing influence of cable operators like Charter and Comcast, who are aggressively expanding their mobile services. This episode sheds light on the importance of bundling services to enhance customer loyalty and the emerging opportunities for small and mid-sized businesses in the wireless sector.
