Airtel 5G speed
Meanwhile, Airtel is claiming to offer up to 30 times faster speed compared to its older generation network- Airtel 4G. Users who are in 5G enabled cities can connect to the new network and can download HD & 4K videos, games, and large files, all in just a few seconds.
Also, unlike Jio 5G, Airtel offers its 5G services to all for commercial use. So, users don’t have to get a minimum recharge plan. Instead, the Airtel 5G will work on any active Airtel plan.
