Hong Kong
History & Development
In Hong Kong, HTHKH provides advanced mobile telecommunications services under the brands of SUPREME, 3 Hong Kong, SoSIM and Mo+ through Hutchison Telephone Company Limited ("HTCL"), a subsidiary of HTHKH incorporated in Hong Kong.
HTHKH mobile business was granted a licence to operate an AMPS cellular radio telephone network in 1984 and commenced the provision of analogue mobile telecommunications services in 1985. We subsequently launched GSM services in 1995 and was the first operator in Hong Kong to launch a 3G service in 2004. The Group launched 4G LTE service in 2012 and activated a high-definition Voice over LTE facility in 2014 to enhance the overall 4G LTE user experience. We launched VoWi-Fi in 2015 to enhance indoor voice call quality and launched 4.5G service in 2016. The construction of an end-to-end NB-IoT network was completed the following year. In 2018, We upgraded the existing network architecture and completed 5G outdoor network trials in the 3.5 GHz and 28 GHz bands. We were the first to make a live outdoor broadcast via a 5G network in Hong Kong. In April 2020, the Group officially launched 5G services.
We terminated 2G services in 2021 to re-allocate spectrum resources for more advanced mobile services. During 2022, the Group activated its 700 MHz spectrum band for deep indoor penetration and wide coverage in rural areas. In 2023, the Group presented Hong Kong’s first-ever 5G live broadcast concert from a cruise ship at sea, marking a crucial milestone in the telecoms industry.
