Nokia CEO Rajeev Suri has come out feeling buoyant after another year of declining sales, warning again it’ll be a tough 12 months trudging through the infrastructure desert, but the 5G oasis is almost within touching distance.
T-Mobile US might do a lot of shouting about all the great things its doing, but Verizon hummed through the New Year in pretty good shape as 5G starts to emerge on the horizon.
US networking giant Cisco announced it is adding 1,100 further job losses and forecast a 5% revenue decline for the coming quarter.
A tough year for UK telecoms giant BT has culminated in the announcement of 4,000 job cuts, a downgraded outlook and a massive remuneration cut for senior management.
While Apple may be struggling to maintain its overall smartphone sales numbers it still stands head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to individual models.
Japanese tech conglomerate Softbank has announced strong full year numbers including a record 1.43 trillion yen (~$12.5 billion) profit.
Bharti Airtel has reported its annual figures, and while there is nominal growth across the twelve months, a notable decline in Q4 indicates the Jio pressure might be starting to weight heavy.
Liberty Global has softened its outlook due to the performance of the pound in global financial markets, but despite the pessimism, Virgin Media doesn’t seem to be doing that bad.
The latest global wearables market data from Strategy Analytics reveals that Apple now heads the whole sector despite its products being by far the most expensive.
The Q1 2017 global smartphone shipment numbers are out and they show solid growth with nearly all coming from Chinese vendors, largely from their domestic market.
AWS, Google and Azure has all reported healthy growth figures, with artificial intelligence forming the central role in the future of the platforms.

Orange has kicked off 2017 with a solid (albeit not mind blowing) first quarter, reporting 0.6% year-on-year growth, but is starting to show some real momentum in the convergence arena.
It’s quarterlies season once again with the results coming through thick and fast after América Móvil, Telia, KPN and SK Telecom all reported their numbers.
AT&T has been making waves in the industry after a less than enthralling quarterly earnings call and a suspect advertising campaign stretches the boundaries of truth.
Ericsson’s numbers for the first quarter of 2017 featured a massive set of write-downs as the company looked to get as much financial bad news out in the open as possible.
