Jio is deploying 5G SA, which would require smartphone manufacturers to release an OTA (over-the-air) update for their devices to enable them to connect with Jio’s 5G. Many OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) have already started rolling out OTA updates with support for 5G SA. But still, there are many devices in the Indian ecosystem that don’t support 5G SA. To ensure that you can consume Jio’s 5G as and when available, make sure that it is updated to the latest firmware version.
