Bharti Airtel’s 5G will now run on all Samsung phones. In a very short span, Samsung has been able to release OTA (over-the-air) updates for all of its 5G smartphones in the country to support Airtel’s 5G. Airtel is currently deploying 5G NSA (non-standalone) and plans to upgrade to 5G SA (standalone) at a future stage. Samsung has joined the leagues of the Chinese smartphone manufacturers, and now all of its devices which are 5G capable in India support Airtel’s 5G. If you own a Samsung 5G phone in India, then you must update it if you haven’t already. Airtel’s 5G is already available in multiple cities and is expanding fast to other parts of the nation. On November 17, 2022, we made a report titled - “Airtel 5G will Now Work on all Samsung Smartphones Except Two Devices.” The two devices which didn’t have the support for Airtel’s 5G at that point were Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3 and Galaxy Z Fold3. Both these devices have now been added to the list of devices which are receiving OTA updates with support for Airtel’s 5G NSA.
