Digital Desk: As India enters the 5G era, teach giant Apple announced on Wednesday that 5G will be enabled in the iOS 16 Beta software programme next week for select iPhone customers in the nation.

Apple Airtel and Jio users who participate in the iOS 16 Beta software programme will be able to try out 5G before it becomes easily available in December, according to Apple.

The Beta programme allows customers to try out pre-release software and sample the latest features before the product is made publicly available.

Last month, Apple stated that it was working with "carrier partners in India to offer the finest 5G experience to iPhone users as soon as network validation and testing for quality and performance is finished."

"5G will be enabled via a software update and will start rolling out to iPhone users in December," the company had said in a statement.

Users can also submit feedback to Apple on quality and usability through the beta programme, which helps Apple find bugs, correct them, and improve Apple software.

To access the most recent public betas and subsequent updates, including the 5G beta that will be made available to Airtel and Jio users starting next week, a user must enrol their iPhone in the Apple Beta Software Program.

The makers of smartphones are attempting to make 5G available on their products as India introduces 5G gradually, beginning with major metro areas.

Users of the iPhone 14, iPhone 13, iPhone 12, and iPhone SE (third generation) handsets will receive a forthcoming software upgrade on 5G.

Apple conducts significant testing with carrier partners to ensure that iPhone users have a positive experience.

iPhone users can keep in touch, share, and enjoy content with superfast downloads and uploads, improved streaming, and real-time communication with 5G.

Support for 5G on the iPhone has now been extended to more than 250 carrier partners in more than 70 markets worldwide, with improved support for standalone networks.

Prioritizing software upgrades would allow for the early introduction of 5G in India.
