Forget about 3G i am not using it at present. But coming 4G speed as per my perception “The only people who are happy with Airtel 4G speed are in Airtel 4G ads only”. Due to Jio tsunami, Other operators are trying to upgrade network in some metro areas and trying make customers to believe that they are providing good service. Truth is they still need to upgrade there infra. If i go to remote area where my grandma lives there also i can able to find Jio 4G signal with great speed unlike these pathetic networks. Users like me are not going to believe in opensignal kind of bull shit report to get us back to choose the old networks who robbed us with unusual charges.
