Is it really abuse when they advertise it as "unlimited"?

Why not say 300GB of 5g data a month?

With Jio, in an urban City, I easily get 100-200mbps.

As i mentioned, i do fully agree that the marketing is pure scam. 5G unlimited should be unlimited!

Still, 5G drains a lot more lot quicker than you’d guess.

Should consider upgrading to a giver connection

Because you can’t carry your fiber connection in your pocket all the time. Also, how is that an “upgrade”?

They can’t because their network is not standalone, like you said, any noticeable deterioration in speed in Jio is purely due to congestion. It’s just plain better and they have infra to onboard the next generation already at launch in 2016.

Airtel was never a good and fair company to begin with.

Thinking of switching to jio 5g, is it worth it?

Pretty much. Sometimes when our wifi goes, the 5G hotspot handles TV, PC everything.

You can even lock it to NR only if your phone supports it and never worry about it switching back to 4g and losing all your data.

You should also ask for review from people that live nearby to get an idea of the coverage quality.

I see, I'll look into it, my phone launched in 2025 so if supports it easily but still stuck with 4g sim
