Commenting on the announcement, Anuj Sharma, Chief Marketing Officer, Xiaomi India, said, “Xiaomi India has always played an instrumental role in democratizing technology for the masses, thereby future-proofing the needs of our consumers. Our entire 5G smartphone portfolio enables our consumers to access 5G services across India. Xiaomi’s ability to offer best-in-class technology in partnership with Airtel will allow our consumers to be at the forefront of the 5G revolution in India. With high speeds, superior reliability, and negligible latency, 5G services will expand the mobile ecosystem into new realms.“
To recall, Airtel 5G Plus was recently made official in 8 cities, namely, Delhi, Mumbai, Varanasi, Chennai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Siliguri, and Nagpur. It is based on the NSA structure and doesn’t require a standalone 5G SIM or a 5G plan to work as of now. Airtel’s 5G services are said to offer 30 times faster internet and will be more “energy and carbon efficient.“
Although, it remains to be seen when Xiaomi phones will be ready to support True Jio 5G, which is available in 4 major cities.
