To ensure users get the best connectivity experience, Vi said it has partnered with Nokia, integrating the latest generation of equipment in its 5G rollout in the city, designed to not only be leaner, but also energy efficient, making the network more sustainable. Additionally, Vi has also deployed an AI-based SON (Self-Organising Networks) system, which continuously optimises network performance to ensure the best consumer experience.

To celebrate the launch, Vi is offering an introductory 5G plan featuring unlimited 5G data for subscribers on prepaid plans starting at Rs 299, which the company says makes it the “most competitively priced option in the market.”

“The service will enhance the user experience for activities such as watching videos and OTT apps, online gaming, video calls and conferencing, and downloads,” Vi said.

Vi’s 4G network has already been recognised for delivering top-tier mobile experiences in Mumbai, as validated by a recent OpenSignal report. With the rollout of 5G, Vi aims to further strengthen its network, catering to the increasing demand for high-bandwidth applications such as real-time cloud access and streaming.
