 It is said that the revision of the Telecommunications Business Law in 2019 has significantly restricted terminal purchase subsidies in the domestic smartphone market and has changed significantly.

 The iPhone, which was considered to be strong, has gradually shunned high -priced routes in recent years, and the iPhone 12 mini, which was expected in the iPhone 12 series, is in a situation that has never been inspired.

 Except for some high -end models, the terminal lineup sold by each mobile phone company has been developed mainly with models of 100,000 yen or less, and the selling is becoming a model with a 30,000 to 50,000 yen range.

 On the other hand, the open market where SIM -free smartphones are deployed is a bit delicate.Until now, SIM -free smartphones for the open market have been widely supported by users who use SIM cards from each MVNO company.However, in response to the strong price reduction pressure of the government last year, the three major companies announced a cheaper new rate plan for about several thousand yen than before, and expanded online dedicated plans (brands) and low -priced brands.So, MVNO companies are forced to fight a tough battle.

 As a result, it seems that the sales status of SIM -free smartphones for the open market has fallen, but in fact, it is not always the case, and the number of models that are selling unexpectedly are increasing.The main battlefield is still a midrange under the 30,000 to 50,000 yen level, not only using SIM cards from each MVNO company, but also using SIM cards contracted with MNO companies.That's it.

 In particular, although the online plan of the three major companies has a difference between each plan, unlike the main brands so far, it is not very aggressive in terminal sales, and like LINEMO, "I plan to sell it for the time being.In some cases, there is no case.In other words, the SIM -free smartphone developed in the open market means that a wide range of users will attract more attention.
