Airtel invites customers to experience 5G at its stores – Times of India

Airtel is busy expanding its 5G services in the country. Now in order to showcase the 5G service, the telco has created 5G experience zones across all its retail stores in the country. The service provider is demonstrating the power of 5G via these specially curated zones. All these 1000+ stores will have specially trained executives who will not only demonstrate use cases but will also answer all 5G-related questions along with Airtel’s own offerings.
Commenting on the launch, Shashwat Sharma, director – consumer business, Bharti Airtel said, “Customer obsession continues to be the core tenet driving us at Airtel. We heard from our customers about their curiosity and desire to experience the new technology, as the networks get rolled out. The Demo zones in our stores will provide first-hand experience of Airtel 5G Plus and the potential it holds to transform the lives of our customers. I am certain, the customers will love the experience provided here, as we construct our network across the length and breadth of the country”.

Airtel claims that it was the first company to launch 5G services in the country and today its services are available across 20 states. The company is rolling out its services in a phased manner and continues to construct its network in the country. Customers with 5G-enabled devices will enjoy a high-speed Airtel 5G Plus network at no extra cost until the rollout is more widespread as the existing data plan works on 5G.
