NTT Docomo Inc said Friday today that subscribers to Xi (pronounced “crossy”), the company’s extra-high-speed LTE mobile service offering a maximum downlink of 75 Mbps, surpassed two million on March 18.

Xi launched on Dec 24, 2010 and reached one million subscribers one year later on Dec 25, 2011. Since then, subscriptions have doubled to two million in just three months, propelled by the introduction of the first Xi-compatible smartphones in November 2011.

Docomo said the number of subscribers is expected to grow as it continues to introduce additional Xi-compatible smartphones, tablets and data-communication devices and mobile Wi-Fi routers, as well as beneficial services, such as Xi Talk 24, which enables free, unlimited voice calls between Docomo users of Xi-compatible smartphones.
