Reliance Jio on Monday announced it has launched True 5G services in Andhra Pradesh. The 5G services were launched in Tirumala, Visakhapatnam, Vijayawada, and Guntur districts.
State IT Minister Gudivada Amarnath said that 5G services will bring transformational benefits to the people.
“Apart from their existing investment of Rs 26,000 crore, additionally Jio has invested over Rs 6,500 crore for deploying 5G network in Andhra Pradesh and this shows their immense commitment towards our state’s development,” the minister said.

By December 2023, Jio True 5G services will be made available in every town, taluka, mandalam, and the village of Andhra Pradesh, he added.
Jio demonstrated the benefits of 5G in the field of healthcare, through Jio Community Clinic medical kit, and the revolutionary AR-VR device, Jio Glass.
These benefits will bring phenomenal changes in the lives of people in Andhra Pradesh, according to the company.
State Chief Secretary Dr. K.S. Jawahar Reddy said that the launch of Jio’s True 5G services will open doors to growth opportunities in the areas of e-governance, education, healthcare, IT, and SME business.
A Jio spokesperson said that Jio True 5G network will expand across the length and breadth of the state within a short period of time.
Remember that India currently has more than 600 million smartphone users, a number which is expected to grow over time as more feature phone users migrate to smartphones.
According to Counterpoint Research, the replacement demand from these users will drive the market in 2023 and beyond.
The 5G networks are now live in multiple cities. Even though 5G smartphones have been making news in the market, they will account for just one-third of the market in 2022.
