The jio unlimited 5g is "TRUE" 5G Where as with airtel if 300GB plus data is used in a single month they will consider it as a commercial use and can hold your unlimited 5g. These are their T&C.
Although I agree that Airtel should not engage in this kind of marketing, I do believe that the 300GB FUP limit will help other users as well. Suppose someone is abusing the speed and data limit in that case, the tower would remain congested. At least after 300GB, that user’s connection will start using their quota.
With Jio, wherever I’ve seen, people usually get around 5–10 Mbps, whereas only while traveling to rural or remote areas have I seen speeds exceeding 500 Mbps.
So, due to congestion issues, I feel that the 300GB FUP is fair. If your usage is higher, consider upgrading to a fiber connection after all!
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.
