@TheAndroidFreak Hmm, yes, the situation has not improved much for Vi. I don't think they have money to improve things much. The only thing which has improved is their ping. Earlier, Idea used to give 200-250ms for Indian servers and 300-350ms for Singapore servers, but now it is most around the same as Airtel.

Airtel has improved their network though. And Jio is just on another level. Even small villages have great network and you will even get Jio 5G in villages. I was travelling to a city yesterday and there were many small towns and some rural areas, including Naxalite-infested ones, but Jio 5G was constantly giving full network pretty much the whole time.

Jios Pros and Airtel Cons in FTTH is OTT bundling & Live TV. We can login with Sony or Zee or Sun apps in multiple devices with Jio fiber, where as Airtel only allowed in xstream app. and Rs.350/- worth of DTH channels (approx.15 HD channels on a la carte basis) are low comparing to Jiotv+ 50+HD and some 4k channels.

Bhai, again u r wrong.... 1stly Airtel provides 25 OTT Apps in its XStream Play subscription while Jio provides just 13, secondly in Airtel Broadband / XStream Fiber one gets 350 worth of TV Channels ( one can pick any DPO, Language pack and A La Carte channels) alongwith XStream Play subscription and Even Disney+Hotstar subscription.....pricing is Rs. 699 + tax and in many towns/cities same is available at Rs. 599+ tax


Now coming to the part of limited DPO Bouquets being available for Airtel Black DTH combo plan customers, well 4 DPO bouquets r available and 2 r mid range and other 2 mega bouquets containing all channels (one is containing just TV Channels while other variant has TV + Netflix / Amazon Prime Video OTT pack).... These include all channels, ofcourse in mid range packs one will not get all HD channels but we do get its SD feed and same is the case with bouquets available with various operators though some have more variants wherein all mass viewed TV Channels r included ( Hindi or Other Regional Language HD channels based on what pack one opts for) but these cost more..... Airtel earlier gave such variants too for Airtel Black customers but later discontinued them but still it is not a big issue
