DNA:n heinäkuun kuluttajamyynnissä korostuivat Applen uusin iPhone 17 -mallisto sekä hyvän hintalaatusuhteen Android-puhelimet.

DNA Oyj:n huhti–kesäkuun 2026 liiketoimintakatsaus: Tasainen kehitys jatkui kireässä markkinatilanteessa16.7.2026 08:30:00 EEST | Tiedote

Kireään kilpailutilanteeseen nähden kuluvan vuoden toinen neljännes oli DNA:lle taloudellisesti varsin hyvä. Huhti–kesäkuussa liikevaihto pysyi liki samalla tasolla vuodentakaiseen ajanjaksoon verrattuna. Käyttökate kasvoi, erityisesti kun vertailussa huomioidaan DNA:n IoT-liiketoiminnan siirto toiseen Telenorin konserniyhtiöön kuluvan vuoden alussa. Kiinteiden laajakaistaliittymien ja matkaviestinverkon liittymien määrät kasvoivat, mutta niiden keskilaskutus hieman laski.

Etätyöt ja suoratoisto seuraavat myös mökille – näin korjaat takkuilevan mökkinetin14.7.2026 14:28:47 EEST | Tiedote

Mökkikausi on monelle myös etätyö-, suoratoisto- ja yhteydenpitokautta, jolloin toimivan nettiyhteyden merkitys korostuu. DNA:n tuoreen Digitaalinen elämä -tutkimuksen mukaan 21 % suomalaisista on kohdannut haasteita nettiyhteytensä kanssa. Vaikka ongelmia esiintyy yleisimmin kodin internetyhteyksissä, myös mökeillä yhteyden hitaus tai toimimattomuus aiheuttaa päänvaivaa osalle käyttäjistä. Moni ongelmista ratkeaa kuitenkin jo yksinkertaisilla toimenpiteillä, joista helpoin on modeemin uudelleenkäynnistys.
