iPhone 5G-capable

The chief technology officer of Airtel has revealed that Apple is testing 5G capability on iPhones in India. For 5G services on the iPhones, Airtel and Apple are collaborating closely. Airtel was the first telecom operator to introduce 5G services in India. Even though Apple offers a large selection of iPhones that are 5G ready, these devices won’t function with the new network unless a software update makes it possible.

“Apple is presently testing 5G in India. According to Airtel’s technology head Randeep Sekhon, dedicated networks have been built up for them to test. Regarding the ongoing 5G network testing on the iPhone in India, he continued, “They [Apple] are promised to open it shortly.”

On October 1, Airtel, Reliance Jio, and Vi unveiled 5G in India in front of Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the India Mobile Congress 2022. One of the oldest telecom companies in India said earlier today that it has begun offering 5G services under the name Airtel 5G Plus in eight cities: Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Siliguri, Nagpur, and Varanasi. The rollout will proceed gradually, and 5G services will be accessible without additional fees up until the entire deployment takes place.

However, the manufacturer has to allow 5G connection in India for 5G to function on your smartphone. While other smartphone manufacturers are striving to push out 5G compatibility for Indian carriers, Realme is said to have been the first to provide a software upgrade for its 5G phones to enable Jio 5G network. The most recent smartphones from Samsung already support 5G without requiring an upgrade. Like other Android devices, the iPhone also requires a software upgrade to support 5G.

With the release of the iPhone 12 more than two years ago, Apple enabled 5G on its iPhones. There are now 12 different iPhone models available in India, so all of them should be compatible with the next software upgrade.

In India, Apple has made its supported devices 5G-ready. Apple devices now have 5G functionality thanks to a beta release of iOS 16.2. The launch of 5G in India took place on October 1 during the India Mobile Congress, and all iPhones that support it will soon have access to 5G connection.

When service providers Jio, as well as Airtel, as well as Airtel, enabled 5GA network access, all iPhones starting with the 12 series and later would have access to 5G connectivity. You must register for the Beta Program on the website, install a profile, as well as download the software in order to use 5G on a compatible iPhone.

iPhone 12, 13, 14 are among the iPhones that will have access to 5G.

In cities where JioTrue5G has been deployed, the Jio Welcome Offer will be accessible to all Jio consumers with an iPhone 12 or later. Customers of Airtel and Jio who have supported 5G iPhones may access 5G utilising the iOS 16 beta software programme from Apple. By enrolling in the iOS 16 Beta Software programme, you may download the iOS 16.2 beta update and enjoy 5G connection on your iPhone 12 and later.

How to access Apple’s 5G iOS update?

On the iPhone, go to website beta.apple.com/profile > Download and install the Settings app > Select Settings > Enable beta settings by selecting General > VPN and Device Management > Click on iOS 16 beta > Return to Settings > General > Software Update to see the notification to download the update.

How to turn on 5G data on your supported iPhone?

The 4G, 5G, and Auto options can be found under Settings > Mobile Data > Mobile Data Option > Voice and Data.

It’s important to note that turning on 5G connection on a compatible iPhone may increase your data use. Therefore, selecting “Auto” option could be the wisest move. Additionally, Apple offers a variety of options that can lower data use, which will be especially useful when utilising 5G.
