Kharagpur, Aug 11 (IBNS): Telecommunications services provider Bharti Airtel on Thursday launched its 4G services in Kharagpur.

With this, Kharagpur has become the second city in Bengal to have 4G mobile services.

Airtel 4G enables customer to enjoy uninterrupted HD video streaming, superfast uploading and downloading of movies, music and images, a company statement claimed.

Airtel 4G is available to customers across a range of smart devices including mobile phones, 4G hotspots and dongles.

Customers can enjoy Airtel 4G at the price of Airtel 3G and customers will have the option of choosing from a host of tariff packs.  

Airtel 4G in Kharagpur has been rolled out using dual spectrum bands of 2300 MHz (TD LTE) and 1800 MHz (FD LTE). The combination of TD LTE and FD LTE claims to provide higher network capacity, which translates into a superior customer experience.
