If 5G has arrived in your city, but you are still running on 4G speed, then it is not your fault. Most people think of changing the old SIM to a new 5G SIM, whereas in most cases there is no need to do so. 5G speed can be activated only on your existing SIM. Just a small change has to be made in the settings of the phone.

How to activate 5G? (Step-by-Step)

1. First check eligibility
2. Whether your phone supports 5G or not
3. (Settings – About Phone – Check 5G Support).
4. If you have a Jio, Airtel or Vi SIM then most of the old SIMs are also ready for 5G.
5. Change phone settings
6. Go to Settings.
7. Tap Mobile Network or SIM & Network.
8. Select Preferred Network Type or Network Mode.
9. Select 5G/4G/3G/2G (Auto) or 5G NR.
10. If there is a separate 5G option, then turn it on.

Check APN settings (required)

• APN for Jio users: jionet
• For Airtel: airtelgprs.com

Having the right APN makes 5G work better.

Update Network Operator

Mobile Network – Network Operators – Select Automatically.

Benefits of getting 5G

• 4K video without buffering
• online gaming without lag
• Very fast download and upload
• Better video call quality

things to keep in mind

1. 5G will work only if there is 5G coverage in your area.
2. If the speed is not that fast in the beginning, then wait for 2-3 days, the network is optimized.
3. 5G consumes more battery, so keep it on only when needed.

Don’t be in a hurry to buy a new 5G SIM or get a new phone. 5G can work only on old SIMs. By just making a small change in the settings of the phone, you can enjoy superfast 5G speed.
