Airtel - while announcing the trial run in Delhi - claimed that on 4G networks, consumers should get Internet speeds that will allow high definition video streaming with zero buffering; movies downloading in less than 30 minutes, and entire photo albums uploaded in less than five minutes or uploading at least two high resolution photos per second.
After using an Airtel 4G SIM for over a week, the biggest take away for me was that 4G worked at very select locations in Delhi and it is not something anyone should totally rely on for being connected to the Internet on-the-go for now.
The speeds depends a lot on the area you're in, and an Airtel employee who did not wish to be named told us that while the company is slowly increasing coverage, for now, people in a densely built up area won't get good indoor coverage. As a matter of fact, there are still parts of the city where you don't have any 4G at all. This can be explained away by pointing out that we are still in the trial phase.
