Does anyone know which is better, China mobile or China unicom? I have to get a new sim card and I heard that internet and signal is better with China unicom. Is this true? Or is the difference so subtle that it is almost insignificant. I live in Beijing, if that matters.

China Mobile has better coverage out in the sticks. China Unicom has better prices on data.
On China Mobile my phone, which is a standard European bought Samsung, doesn't get good dataspeeds as they use they own TD-CDMA standard, if you have such a phone then the data is pretty decent. (I guess this must depend on where in China you are.
If I could transfer my number to Unicom I would.
it always depends who gets the contract for the new technology, when 3g came out I switched to unicom, when 4g comes out I will probably habve to switch back to china mobile
