Though it stands as the world’s most populous wireless market (by a stunningly wide margin), China lags in 3G coverage –partly thanks to its fragmentation-happy attitude that has left the country with three very different, very incompatible standards that are all being rolled out in parallel. Of course, when you’re Samsung, that ain’t no thing. Sammy — the world’s number two manufacturer, and a company that very nearly rolls out a phone a day every single day of the year — is spearheading a new “3GSamsung, 3G for all” marketing campaign in China to advertise the breadth and depth high-speed wares. To be fair, the company is probably more qualified to aggressively advertise 3G support in China than any other company, seeing how it’s in the process of rolling out around 30 compatible phones there spanning the full range from EV-DO to HSPA to China’s own TD-SCDMA — now they’ve just got to work on bumping up those adoption rates and they’ll be in business.
