Re: 4G launch Tom
When prices will be low enough people will definitely get 3g. Most of the people have 3g handsets. So compatibility won't be an issue for now.

Re: 4G launch Tom
Yea nokia has 3.5g
So it will be better.So basically,it will take another 3-4 months for 4g to some across the whole country.Or i fell they will set up 4g only in METROS.But let them reduce 3g prices throughout the country say.
100 Bucks for 5 gb(2g),2gb(3g) so on

Re: 4G launch Tom
3.5G is similar to what EDGE/2.5G is to GPRS/2G(an upgrade basically).
Most of current generation devices are 3.75G capable(HSDPA~7mbps).
For Proper 4G Experience we need LTE devices like HTC One-X.
LOL.Airtel is talking about 4G and there current 3G Tariff Plan rates are skyrocketing and no good for mass adoption.
Moreover there speeds sucks in context of what they promised to provide.
I am using airtel 3G for over a week now and barely it crosses 300kbps ,though once in a while it shots upto as much as 1mbps-4mps for few minutes but that useless.

Re: 4G launch Tom
Handsets are onetime investment or we can buy good usb modems for 3g-4g under 5k bt the tariff plans should b justfied ..
That is why I am still using 2G!
3G or 4G, they both are not ready yet for mass consumption.. given the tariff and expensive handsets..

Re: 4G launch Tom
When the price-rates for using 3G services are so high, how will someone go for 4G usage?

Re: 4G launch Tom
OMG!
This has really put me off. Was thinking of getting a 4g dongle to replace my ailing BSNL so called "Broadband"
But Rs.8000 is way too much
cannot buy. Too too pricey.
None of phones I have support 4g.
@everyone Guys, this wont be fail. The plans are ok(initially everything will be highly priced, remember the PS3 which costed Rs.25000 initially?)
But the thing which will make it fail are dongle prices. I dont see any commoner shelling out so much money for it.

Let RIM,BSNL Start 4G.Airtels success over the past years have effected there f****** brains.
Thats Why these Days airtel is loosing its Charm.No proper 3G network.Sh!tty Broadband plans
I dont get it HYD has better airtel plans (at around 700 if u cross Ur Limit u get 512 Kbps) compared to the rest of indias 256
Is it mee only?
Or did airtel remove 3G tariffs from Kolkata cant find it in the website
Airtel Just thinks that People in india are extreme rich and will Buy 4G.
Anyone will Finsh 6 gb in a day(In these speed ) and be stuck with 126 KBPS
