Why users need to wait for 5G implementation - The Hindu
The story so far: Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced the launch of next generation 5G services in India on October 1. However, nearly three weeks after Mr. Modi launched 5G services in India, the majority of mobile phone users — who have a 5G-enabled handset and are in cities where the services has been launched — may need to wait till December to enjoy the high speed internet. Currently, two operators, Bharti Airtel and Reliance Jio, are offering 5G services in limited cities. Apple has said that it is working with “carrier partners in India to bring the best 5G experience to iPhone users as soon as network validation and testing for quality and performance is completed. 5G will be enabled via a software update and will start rolling out to iPhone users in December.” For Samsung and Xiaomi, some devices already offer support for the 5G network.
