Jio will launch the first 5G network in India, already conducted a field test Comments
I think it won't be a huge success like 4G was. 4G LTE was rethinking and replanning the network itself. It got successful due to less costs, high speed internet and everything from call to sms being on internet line, so towers were simple.
4G was also the cheapest to run overall.
5G will apparently be much faster at a cost:- too many towers at an arm's distance raising costs for the companies (users will pay), probably huge environmental costs people don't know about (See, we can't trust any positive-concluding research on this, can't you see billions of dollars are involved?), and towards the end, it might open up new possibilities to hugely exploit the privacy of users, with IoT and AI becoming the norm.
Maybe by 2040, we won't even be able to keep secrets anyhow, and USA will have complete information of everyone who becomes Prime Minister/President of their state, and this can be exploited.
Don't take 5G advocates seriously, they're obviously catching the propaganda so I won't blame them. As if media and research world has no lies at all.

We too need to get 5G asap in India too. Focusing on proper coverage of 4G will make us fall behind in technology in the network sector. I don't care about the coverage of 4G. I just want the new technology to be established in India asap. You may not be desperate to download a movie in seconds, but some people are. I want things to be downloaded in seconds.

Ask yourself, do we really need 5G? We don't have proper coverage of 4G, and 4G has enough throughput if proper coverage is maintained. Speed around 10Mbps to 20Mbps is ideal for whatever data intensive work you do on mobile. I am not desperate to download a movie in seconds. For gaming the latency matters, and it's already fine on 4G. So instead of going higher and higher technologies they should make good coverage of existing technology. And yes, Reliance is crony capitalist.
Kedar284, 24 Jun 2021While Airtel (15 Mbps) and Vi around (17 Mbps)Speeds depend upon bands. These are the band 3 speeds on each of those.
SShreyas, 24 Jun 2021Everything is fine until you realise that government has decided to auction the spectrum in 2022. Won't make much difference to network. Jio will have speed caps of 104Mbps to provide 5G speeds, eventually we won't get true 5G speeds as well.
Mediatek sux, 24 Jun 2021Are you sure its 100? I'm seeing 150 and 300 in a quick search.Yes. Ping me on insta. everydaypursuits31. I will share a screenshot.

Anonymous, 24 Jun 2021i think you mean 200kbps.200Mbps only. ping me on everydaypursuits31 on insta. I will share a screenshot. Such speeds won't be possible on Airtel/Jio ever.
Davy Jones, 24 Jun 2021Maybe the fact that rural areas has lower population/connection compared to urban areas has to... moreEverybody is hopped on to Jio due to free tariffs(lowest tariffs in the world even now), that's why speeds are poor on Jio. Either Jio needs to increase the tariffs or Jio needs to kill the Airtel by bringing tariffs to even lower than what they launched at.
Derick Abraham, 25 Jun 2021I m from rural area in kerala. It was 15mbps first when they launched. Now i m getting min... moreVi is best in Kerala. Second best is BSNL, but now Jio will March ahead in Kerala along with Airtel after spectrum addition.
Derick Abraham, 25 Jun 2021Jio 4G downloads are very good.
Getting 50mbps. Its enough for me.
Hope 5g will improve upl... moreIn the start, it will be quiet good.
If prices are low, then speeds will deteriorate too. Three years of patchy Jio 5G network. Mark my words.
Derick Abraham, 25 Jun 2021If nobody uses a network, speed will be better. Vi is not better. Its because of very less c... moreNo customers are less. But even not full spectrum is utilized for 4G purposes(Only band 3 and band 1 is being utilized for 4G currently, that too not completely) . Even if 50-80 million more 4G customers are added, network won't choke in that condition. Because once band 41 is deployed, capacity will increase by quiet a lot.
