Overview:
Cable companies like Charter (Spectrum) and Comcast (Xfinity) have continued to expand their presence in the US wireless market, capitalizing on opportunities to bundle services and offer competitive pricing. By leveraging their existing broadband infrastructure and operating as Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs), these companies have been able to reduce costs and offer wireless services as add-ons, attracting new subscribers and reducing churn. This growth comes at a time when traditional wireless carriers are grappling with declining smartphone sales and elongating device replacement cycles.
