Jio 5G details have been revealed and just like its 4G service launch back in 2016, the company will conduct a beta test for the same. The 5G service will begin from Dussehra across four Indian cities, which include Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Varanasi. Jio's 5G service will be Standalone 5G, which means it won't piggyback on Jio's 4G LTE service. Hence, you can expect extremely fast data speeds.
