“Since receiving the 5G spectrum in August last year, our team has been working round the clock to ensure we keep up the pace of 5G roll-out that we had promised to enable pan-India 5G coverage by the end of this year,” he added.
Moreover, Jio had acquired a unique combination of low-band, mid-band and mmWave spectrum, which coupled with its deep fibre network and indigenous technology platforms, will enable Jio to provide 5G Everywhere and 5G For All (consumers and enterprises).
Furthermore, the company said that it plans to complete 5G roll-out across the country by the end of the year.
Separately, reports suggest that the company will launch two new smartphones in India at its upcoming Annual General Meeting or AGM that is scheduled to be held on August 28.

As per reports, at least one of the two phones will come with a 6.5-inch HD+ LCD display with a 90Hz screen refresh rate. Both the phones are expected to be backed by a 5,000mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging technology. They are also tipped to get a 13MP primary camera and a depth sensor at the back and an 8MP camera in the front.
