British mobile phone giant Vodafone announced Tuesday it has agreed a £4.3 billion ($5.8 billion) deal to take full ownership of the country's biggest mobile phone operator, VodafoneThree. 

Under the agreement, Vodafone will buy out Hong Kong-based CK Hutchison's 49-percent stake in the company through a share cancellation.
