A Russia-based research and statistics firm reported that Russia's mobile phone penetration approached 100% at the end of July this year. The number of mobile phone subscriptions in the country reached 143.07 million, which represents 98.5% national market penetration.
These figures were disclosed by ACM (Advanced Communications and Media) Consulting research company last week. The researches pointed out that the number of mobile subscriptions does not reflect the number of cell phone users, as many people hold a few active mobile SIM cards. They estimate that the penetration in Moscow reached 149% at the end of July, the penetration in the regions climbed up to 89.9% whereas the country's penetration soared up to 96.6%.
