To use 5G, Airtel users don’t need to change their SIM if they already own a 4G SIM with an active plan. But users having legacy SIMs for 2G/3G services would have to upgrade to a 4G SIM which is 5G ready as well. Existing data plans will work on 5G Plus until roll-out is complete and Airtel 5G Plus now works on all Android and Apple supported 5G devices.
