I just need the TL;DR. What's the advantage?

@Lolita_Magnum
So the guy in the video explains how Vi has sufficient spectrum of 900mhz spectrum and Vi can use it to deploy 5G SA 3500+900 ,Vi only needs more money to deploy 5G SA since it already had the spectrum licence
Since 5G requires sub GHz spectrum and Vi has lots of 900mhz spectrum as compared to Airtel
Also, Vi can do 3500+1800 for 5G CA and still have 2100 spectrum for 4G in those circles which don't support 5G SA

I am not sure if there is any advantage to this.
If we talk about in terms of interference and efficiency, I'd think Jio has got it the best.

@Lolita_Magnum it can probably help vi reduce the subscriber bleed by giving a better 5G experience than Airtel i guess
But then looking at how poorly jio’s 700mhz 5G performs i dont have much hopes from it

Yes, SA can be an advantage if it can provide better experience and connectivity than Airtel.
However, it feels like too little too late and I doubt an average joe is going to discern the difference between SA and NSA.
That is because these lower bands are meant for reliability and connectivity (mostly for call, and minute data transfer) and not performance.

wow I didn’t think of that
i dont know about 5g but the air tel 4g network is horrible and too slow experience since 3years. i find vi 4g to be much faster and stable than airtel 4g.
@Kyle Crane Jio’s N28 band coverage has significantly improved in Mumbai area. Seems like they have increased power limit from 1W to 5W as per the clearance received from DoT last Feb 2025.
