This upgraded network with Nokia OEM has seen in south indian states as per Airtel 5G standalone. This will be going to wide pan rollout in the coming months.

Right now only for Airtel Airfiber. Not for mobile services.

I was talking about 5G speeds(Especially on Airtel 5G, speeds are below 200Mbps). Not 4G speeds. Not everyone has high end phones. Mostly low end phones latches on 40C(Infinix GT 10 Pro/20 Pro/Tecno Camon Premier 30 5G, 36999 model, other Infinix phones, Poco X6, Poco X6 Neo). So speeds are mostly less speeds on those. But if you somehow lock band 3+5, speeds are crazy fast on LTE. Indoor it latches on to 4G and not even switching to band 78. I wish Jio makes band 3 20Mhz PAN India after Vi spectrum in band 3 expires in two years. It's time for Airtel to make band 1/3 4*4MIMO and Jio to shift band 40 40Mhz one block to 5G. No other option.
