There is a wave of innovation across consumer devices, connectivity and digital services. Within digital services, three areas are capturing growing interest: digital gaming; generative AI; and extended reality (XR) and the metaverse. In this report we draw upon findings from our consumer survey to uncover insights that can help players in these ecosystems sharpen their competitive strategies and refine their commercial offerings.

The latest consumer survey by GSMA Intelligence reveals that around one in seven mobile users changed their service provider over the previous 12 months. The main reasons for churn have stayed largely unchanged over the last five years, at the aggregate level, with value for money by far the top reason. However, variations exist between consumer segments in terms of the degree of churn and the drivers.

Today, smartphones are the leading digital playground. According to our consumer survey, almost 80% of smartphone users consume digital entertainment services, including video, music and games, on a weekly basis. How can smartphone OEMs capitalise on the prime position that their devices have in digital services consumption? In this report we lay out the five key areas here that smartphone OEMs should focus on. These include implementing bundling strategies, leveraging tech and network advances, and identifying the prime consumer segments for digital services.

Extended reality (XR) technology, which comprises augmented reality, mixed reality and virtual reality, has been around for a while, but it still suffers from a low adoption rate. Only 5% of consumers on average own an XR headset, according to the latest GSMA Intelligence consumer survey, conducted across 12 major mobile markets worldwide. In this report, we discuss the five key areas that XR companies need to focus on for developing a successful consumer strategy, which include identifying the prime consumer segments to target and widening consumer access to XR experiences.

This edition highlights Verizon's multi-pronged approach to consumer 5G monetisation.

Our latest consumer survey shows that almost half of non-5G users plan to upgrade to 5G. However, the work remains cut out for operators in terms of capitalising on this positive consumer sentiment for successful 5G monetisation. More efforts across areas such as 5G network quality, 5G customer segmentation, tariff innovation and 5G partnerships are key to advancing consumer 5G adoption and monetisation. In this report we explore the above and further aspects of consumer 5G in depth, supplemented with three operator case studies on consumer 5G from around the globe.

This report focuses on the increasing investment by mobile operators and service providers on super-apps, where legacy mobile banking, payments and messaging apps and more are subsumed into one all-inclusive app. With new technology, super-apps today can feature a core stack with 'mini-apps' that are layered on for quick development and rollout. This gives a lot of flexibility and speed for operators to build out ecosystem partnerships and bring new services to market fast, thereby increasing their revenue generation potential.

CES saw more than 140,000 attendees from over 150 countries and over 4,500 exhibitors. To help navigate the key announcements, developments and implications from the show, this report focuses on four key areas of innovation: consumer devices, smart home, digital entertainment and automotive.

Innovation in consumer technology and shifting consumer behaviour are redefining consumer experiences, creating opportunities for new and existing players. But consumer budgets are still under pressure in many markets, so monetisation is not straightforward. Consumer segmentation will be important, and this requires insights into how consumer preferences are evolving.
