OnePlus smartphones launched after 2020 now support 5G connectivity in India. The latest generation cellular network was launched in the country in October last year. Telecom operators Jio and Airtel are already offering the network in some parts as well as expanding its availability. Smartphone OEMs have also been pushing 5G support software updates for their devices.
Now, OnePlus has announced that users who brought a compatible 5G OnePlus smartphone since 2020 can experience the latest generation cellular network provided by Airtel and Jio. The brand added that it has worked with telecom operators to provide support and unlock 5G on its devices. It’s worth noting that Vodafone Idea hasn’t rolled out its 5G network, hence it is not yet available on OnePlus phones.
