Jio will initially roll out 5G services in Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, and Chennai, four major metropolises.

These will be expanded to other cities and towns in phases rapidly to cover the entire country by December 2023.

“Jio 5G services will connect everyone, every place and everything with the highest quality and affordability. We are committed to making India a data-powered economy even ahead of China and the US,” said Ambani.

The largest and most technologically advanced 5G network will be Jio 5G. Jio’s 5G network, in contrast to that of other operators, will be independent from the 4G network.

Jio 5G will be able to provide an unmatched combination of coverage, capacity, quality, and cost because to the three benefits of standalone 5G architecture, the largest and best mix of spectrum, and carrier aggregation technology.

Jio can offer innovative and potent services like low latency, widespread machine-to-machine connectivity, 5G voice, Edge computing and network slicing, and metaverse with standalone 5G.
