Reports for this network

JioBharat phones are locked to Jio: they only work with a Jio SIM. Source

About 2G: Airtel keeps 2G for feature-phone users and hasn't announced a date to close it. It closed 3G circle by circle from 2019.

About 4G calling: Airtel says VoLTE is live in every circle, but its list of compatible handsets is old and names no keypad phones. Phones without Airtel VoLTE can still call over 2G.
