hi there this is Ritesh then in this blog let's talk about
the jio Giga fiber plants and if you guys recall I actually need I took two jio
Giga fiber connections and I had posted a blog about that one again check out
that if you want to know what's the experience how it works and all those
things but in this blog let's talk about the jio Giga fiber commercial plans
because those have been announced and in fact now I have three connections just
about months ago I took one more connection for my parents also that was that
2500 rupees plan that came with the slightly inferior router that has the 2.4
gigahertz band so have and guys I'm
let's be frank I'm a little bit disappointed with the plans and maybe I'll be
surrendering of the connections now but
in this blog I'm going to state all the facts and the details because there has
been a lot of confusion about this one and in fact that's why I took time to
create this blog jio of official jio what do you say I mean Mumbai office so
this information is coming directly from there I had a long call asked a ton of
questions so I'll go over it what are these plants I divided and so that
hopefully it gives you an better idea what are these you bigger fiber plans
because I have been hearing a lot of misinformation around that and I guess to
be frank I would say for heavy data users these plants are very very expensive
so first let's talk about the plans and if you look at this survey page here it
gives us all the options of the prepaid plans those are the bronze silver gold
and diamond and if you look at it it says that the bronze is the base plum and
it comes with 6 99 rupees per month but guys this is not inclusive of GST so
you have to add 18% GST to this so the total cost per month will come out to
about 800 25 rupees per month for this base plan and if you look at it the
speed is 100 megabits so the base speed is 100 megabits on all plants but the
important thing is data guys that's the most important thing and on this plan
you are getting hundred gigabytes of data but you'll notice that you also have
that 50 GB extra and this 50 GB extra is the initial offer and this will be
applicable for the first six months so you'll be getting about 150 gigabytes of
data per month but again after that six months at 50 GB will go of it so
essentially 100 gigabytes of data and you'll be paying about 800 fr bees per
month for this one and before I move to other plans it's tough one big
misinformation out there is that people are saying that this even if you take
the base plan or any plan you will get cable services like live TV etc with
this one no that is not true you will not get the cable services if you want
that cable services yes you need to have an existing cable connection they have
tie ups with halfway and one more provider I forgot I like that name so again
you need that regular cable connection and that fee whatever you are paying to
Hathway or whatever is different so that is not included you're not getting
cable services for with this one let me be clear we'll talk about the set-top
box yes you aren't going to get a set-top box that 4k set of box with every
connection but that's a little bit different from regular cable connection that
you were expecting live TVs and all those things no those are ot t I'll talk
about that that's a good thing but this is not cable so for cable etc if you
have Hathway you will be paying water amount you were paying for cable and that
just attached to this one anyways next if you look at it we have the silver
plan and we have the gold plan and other transit and I'm and except rather too
expensive I feel but let's talk about the silver plan because I feel for most
casual users they this might be the best one it says that you get about 200
gigabytes of data and during that initial offer for the six months you get 200
GB extra so you should be getting about 400 GB of data per month which is
actually pretty decent for normal users not for very heavy users like you and
me obviously and again the base plan is rupees 849 for this one so add GST so
you'll be paying about 1200 rupees per month for this plan and then we also
have the gold plan which I feel is OK for slightly heavy users I am I was
looking at my data consumption guys I'll talk about I in fact have a different
what do you say broadband providers not just jio also have an a connection and
a pioneer broadband connection I'll talk about that also and but wasteland
gives you about 500 GB of data it says but and you'll be also be getting that
250 GB extra so essentially you'll be getting about seven and 50 gigabytes of
data initially with this plan and speeds on this plants have increased now from
100 megabits to 250 megabits so actually pretty good 250 megabytes but if you
add the taxes and everything you'll be paying 1533 rupees per month for this plan
and that extra GB as I've told you is introductory offer this will be
applicable for 6 months and now let's talk about and one thing that this official told me is that guys these are not
just these plants in the near future they might be announcing some newer plants
also but again I didn't get any more details but this it's not like that these
plans are the only plants that will be coming in the future maybe I'm just
assuming around that the valley or the the Shira time they might just announce
um whatever the value offer or whatever so new plants might be also coming and
now let's talk about the 4k set-top box and according to the plants and I even
checked with this jio official yes every connection even the base connection
will get that 4k set-top box included and guys this is basically think of this
as Android TV box for example if I give a very crude example think of this as a
5d mystic 4 K for example of the Amazon fire TV stick you have a ton of apps
like Netflix hot star Amazon Prime etc so it's essentially that and you'll be
attaching this if you want to your television so to make your normal television
a sort of a smart television and this is a 4k box so that's actually good and
we are getting this for every connection and again this view official did not
specify to me exactly what are the apps that are coming but I'm assuming
popular apps like Netflix hot star Z obviously geo apps will come from this but
the G official didn't tell me exactly what are the OTT apps that will be coming
but one thing to make very clear and I asked this question is that whatever
data is consumed for example let's say if you're watching Netflix or let's say
hot star Wow this connection via this box that data will be counted from your
whatever data have let's say you have 100 GB cap so again you're watching that
Netflix or whatever it your data will be used for that this is not free that I
want to make it very clear I double check this one but the good thing is that
you are getting this 4k TV box free with almost every connection and in fact
recently what do you say it L has launched a similar box that's known as
extreme and they are charging about three thousand nine hundred rupees or
something like that for that but you're getting that box for free but again
this is not a cable TV box that many people are confusing this is what do you
say this is a box where you have a number of apps and you can use it like a
Android TV box I would say think of this as a fat TV 4k stick that you are
getting and so that's what it is and I will be upgrading one of my connections
so hopefully I should also be getting that box soon when I have great because
it said that everyone who goes for the paid plan will get that box if I get it
do let me know do you want a dedicated video about it what are the apps that is
coming except rap do let me know in the comment section below now let's talk
about before I move to that annual Pro Lance which I think is the best thing
right now because they give you options like double data etc let's talk about why
I feel these data plans are not that cost-effective let's let me talk about my
own experience I mean Heather bath I have three different broadband connection
apart from what you say Gio my primary connection earlier was at broadband and
if you look at this web page actually on this one $2.99 Maxim plan that gives
me 150 megabits of speed and one terabyte of data per month and in fact I paid
annually for this so I had to pay only for 10 months so I paid that 12,000 I
had plus GST so I'm getting one terabyte of data with this one another
connection that I have is in this what is at the secondary office that's not
our main that's the pioneer connection and as you can see I took the base
connection that's a 25 megabit connection up and down and I get 300 gigabytes
of data with this one and the monthly rental is just 400 rupees plus taxes and
forget about all this the most interesting thing is hat wave which is now
indirectly owned by real ants and it's basically I would say part of geo now
because reliance owns geo hat way broadband in Hyderabad they have a plan look
at this look at the what do you say 100 megabit plan monthly cost is just 499
rupees and the best part is no data caps no data caps unlimited data and if you
go for the 75 megabit data it's just 349 rupees per month without any rate are
caps so I'm like surprised how much reliance is actually charging for data
anyways another thing I'd really do not like about this geo Giga fiber plants
is essentially are technically this connection is unlimited but after let's say
if we talk about the base plan that is the bronze after that 100 gigabytes of
data your connection speed will go down and it goes down to just 1 make a
better one so that's actually really really less because for example I have act
and stuff we also have FUP with act and others I'm going to give an example of
act because I was using it in my plan if I recall after that 1 terabyte if I
exceed per month then the connection drops down to about 3 megabit so I feel
that a few p speed should have been better they should have gone with at least
a 2 mega bet and for higher plans 3 4 6 or something like that but right now
for every plan even the most expensive plan that will cost about 10000 per
month the FUP is just 1 megabit so I hope in the future they change this FUP
because one megabit connection for a broadband for FUP when you are just having
hundred gigabytes of data is just ridiculous in my Frank opinion now as I've
told you I have actually three connections in a family and half to personally one
in the office and one in my home and my desk just surrender one of the
connections because I already have acted and it's very much cheaper I would say
for me and I might keep one of the Geo connections because of the reliability
because if you recall I had taken this correction around March sometime and
it's been more than six months now and I never had an issue of downtime so that
is one thing that I really like that I can't say lately because of the act my
heart connection goes down quite a bit these days but that's not the case with
this one so that's the only good thing but I simply do not like how much data
we are getting and another thing that I want to clarify and I did ask the Jew
official about this one with every new geo connection we will be getting that
what we say fiber box that you require this I believe will be the newer one not
I got it from my dad for 2500 me this is the one so you'll be getting this one
but this one only has 2.4 gigahertz Wi-Fi band and I did test this one on my
dad's connection and the max speed on Wi-Fi you can get is about 45 to 48
megabits you don't want get higher speeds on Wi-Fi because this box simply does
not have any 5 gigahertz plan I had taken the connection earlier for 4500
rupees that's why I have this white color box and this one does have that 5
gigahertz Wi-Fi ban so even on Wi-Fi I get about 80 85 megabit so again that is
one thing you have to note and apart from that router box that you're getting
that the fiber will go you will also be getting that 4k what do you say
streaming box of work a set of box with every connection so that's what you're
going to get and now let's talk about the annual plants if you are really
serious about this connection then I would say look at the annual plants and if
you look at this image over here let's talk about the silver and the gold plan
as I have told you the silver plan per month will cost you about one thousand
two rupees per month and in this silver plan if you go here they have some
options like this Bluetooth speaker or you can get two extra months and we also
have a third option of doubling your data and frankly I feel if you are a power
user like most of you are who are watching this then you should offer this
double data plan again do note that out of these three options like Bluetooth
speaker that two months of extra and double data you can only choose one option
so I would suggest that if you are going for this plan use that double date
option and hence instead of the 200 gigabytes per month you'll be heading 400
gigabytes per month and for the full year then you'll be paying about twelve
thousand twenty four that this is inclusive of taxes and this is one more
important thing that I asked the G official so the total you are assuming that
400 GB into twelve is that 4,800 GB per year I asked her can we use that 4800
GB as we like in the full year no she told it will be capped to monthly data
for that means for this plan maximum that you can use in a month is 400
gigabytes for example you just can't use like thousand gigabytes in a month
it's not like that every month you get a quota of about 400 gigabytes with that
annual plant if you offer that double data I also like the gold plan for heavy
users the regular data is 400 GB per month but if you offer that annual plan
and this one in the annual plan if you notice they have some options they are
giving that 24 inch TV but for that you have to enroll for two years or again
the two months of extra data or double data I would say just go for the double
data if you really want that then you will be getting about one terabyte of
data per month and the annual fee will work out to about 18,000 380 396 per
here this is inclusive of taxes so this is a just again they have a lot more
plants as you can see on the this image but again you get an idea what I'm
talking about I would say what I liked about the Geo connection because I have
been using it for the past six months is reliability it was never down in the
past six months and mostly I get the rated speed so it's basically I'm
currently on 100 megabit plan and generally always I get about 92 to about 94
megabits of speed so reliability is got compared to some of the other operators
that I am using here in Hyderabad but for heavy users like you and me who need
a lot of data it is certainly very very expensive as of now and we simply do
not have any unlimited plan option as of now and even the FUP limits are just
ridiculous at one megabit but again I feel yes this jio Giga fiber connection
might be great for some people for example you're living in a work saying not a
major city where you don't have a lot of what do you say broadband providers
then maybe this might be a better option but again in big cities like Mumbai
Hyderabad Kolkata Delhi etc we have a lot of what is a broadband operators
which give you very high-speed connections unlimited connection for 500, 800
rupees so again this was the information about this jio Giga fibre guys and I
might be Sundering surrendering one of my own connections and might just roll
out of to give it a try how this works one of the connections I might enroll
for three months and see how it works and I should also be getting that 4k
setup box because of that so do let me know do you want a video on that 4k
setup box what are the features that you are getting what is etc anyways guys I
hope this blog makes sense and clears the confusion about jio Giga fiber and it's plans and anyways guys this is Ritesh hope to see you in
my next blog take care guys.
