Now enjoy 5G on iPhone

In India, iPhone users have been waiting for 5G access. No longer. Apple has enabled 5G cellular support for the new iPhone 14 series as well as iPhone 13, iPhone SE and iPhone 12 lineups.

To use a 5G connection with Reliance Jio and Airtel on an iPhone 12 model or later, customers will need to update to iOS 16.2. Once updated, when you’re in an area with 5G coverage for your carrier and your 5G cellular plan has been activated, you’ll see a 5G icon in the status bar of your iPhone.

Last month, the company enabled 5G in the iOS 16 Beta software programme for select iPhone users in the country. Airtel and Jio customers who participated in the iOS 16 Beta software programme were able to try out 5G.
