Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson Q1 2021 Earnings Call Transcript

The following is excerpted from the question-and-answer section of the transcript.

Question: Frank Maa° - DNB Markets, Research Division - Analyst : And just wanted to clarify a little bit there on the last question also on China, which actually was -- my question was also relating to. So Mainland China was flat for you year-on-year. And you mentioned the tender that will probably come in a couple of months. We don't have any particular insight on them. But exactly, could you repeat what you said about a portion being a bit larger than normally? I didn't fully get that? Do you mean the portion that you have -- that you expect of the rollout in China, which is really my question, give a lot more - further to China, do you see any mix changes on what's going on in terms of the plans that operators have there? I know that there seems to be a certain skewed towards 700 megahertz rollout in China rather than perhaps that much Massive MIMO this year, would that impact you and your competitiveness in any particular way in China? And finally, if I may, on the Massive MIMO -- second-generation Massive MIMO product that you've mentioned, could you give us some color on that, has been received by customers who also are evaluating the Chinese lenders, Massive MIMO products, which were pretty light weight for the 64TRX something like that, even that was launched 1 year ago. So If you could give us some color on the [reception] there, please?
