5G in India

[Chip]

+1 I am more of a wired/fibre BB guy than wireless.

Yes, Bringing Down Cost Of 1 Gig & Below Plans. Also setting up 100 Mbps as their base plan from both providers Jio & Airtel. That would be the greatest thing. Also 2 Gig speeds for residential users 😁

Jio first, followed by Airtel, finally VI.
Not surprised no spectrum for BSNL/MTNL.

Not that much excited about 5G as I was about 4G.
I hope 5G brings in unlimited wireless data in mainstream like most developed nations 5G provider are offering.
I guess 5GB Or 10GB per day data limit will be norm with higher rental plans of course.

I feel 4G plans should remain the same like 2GB/day or increase to 4 GB/Day. But 5G plans should be like 10 GB/day etc. Price should be higher than 4G so only those who need 5G can use it. Low budget recharge users get 4G & high budget users get 5G. More data on 5G plans...

I'd rather they just have separate plans for 4G and 5G, even when it comes to Postpaid.

In VIT Chennai also some people are getting 5g on the existing 4g sims

 

[TinTinSnowy]

What speeds can be expected from 5G? Jio 4G goes up 21 Mb/s and VI 4G goes up to 50 Mb/s at my home. Also latency is not that good.

 

[Aakash Malhotra]

Theoretically : 1Gbit +
IRL scenario here in india : IDK maybe 100Mbps?

 

[itachi]

I love 5g but my device say 5g will consume more power. I hope this will be nothing in the future.

 

[nishantt6969]

I dont have 5G supported phone, a guy with OnePlus having 5G is enjoying 5G, not in good terms with me so we dont speak to each other.
