To bring 5G services to 300 cities by March 2023 end, Airtel has added the newly launched network in three new cities of the country. The second largest telecom player has launched 5G Plus services in Chandigarh, Mohali, and Panchkula. Notably, the services will be available in a phased manner as the company is still constructing the network and expected to complete the roll-out by March 2024 end.
However, to access the 5G Plus network of the company, customers should have 5G-enabled devices. Plus, the company is providing services with 4G plans, which means without any extra cost, whereas India’s largest telecom operator Reliance Jio launched Rs 61 add-on prepaid plan. The customers can access the pack with Rs 119, Rs 149, Rs 179, Rs 199, and Rs 209 packs.
Meanwhile, Airtel states that customers in these three cities will not get 30 times faster speed than the 4G network, and they can access high-end gaming, video streaming, and uploading of photos. The telecom operator has so far launched 5G Plus services in more than 140 cities, which is still less than Jio as the latter brought the network to more than 270 cities.
