China Mobile Ltd. is selling 13 handsets for its fourth-generation network, up from four devices at the start of service three weeks ago, as market leader Samsung Electronics Co. and rivals vie for early adopters.

Samsung’s Note 3 is available for 5,399 yuan ($892) before subsidy at China Mobile’s store at the carrier’s Beijing headquarters, in addition to the Note 2 that went on sale earlier this month. The Note 3, the most costly device offered on the 4G network, is available free with China Mobile’s most expensive monthly service plan of 488 yuan.
