Reliance Jio Claims Its 5G Network Can Extend Smartphone Battery Life by Up to 40% with Standalone Technology

It was Jio’s President Kiran Thomas who led the headlines generated in a recent Q2 FY25 earnings call when the company claimed its 5G network, built using standalone (SA) 5G technology, could extend smartphone battery life by as much as 40%. End.

It was Jio’s President Kiran Thomas who led the headlines generated in a recent Q2 FY25 earnings call when the company claimed its 5G network, built using standalone (SA) 5G technology, could extend smartphone battery life by as much as 40%. End.

How Jio’s Standalone (SA) 5G Network Optimises the Consumption of Power

Kirin Thomas in the earnings call said that the 5G network is operated over spectrum bandwidth suited to application requirements. Jio does not rely on a NS 5G architecture since NSA 5G networks are based on a 4G infrastructure building block. Data processes have a lower power requirement in SA 5G architecture, thus it would be more energy-efficiently managed. This would potentially see the improvement of 20-40% in the battery life of smartphones.

The Science Behind Longer Battery Life

Jio’s plan utilizes dynamic power management on its SA 5G network. It does so through deallocating spectrum bandwidth in real time based on the needs of applications. This, therefore, renders operations such as video streaming and games-that normally consume much of the battery life quite less power-intensive. For that reason, theoretically, you will be executing such operations fluently on Jio‘s SA 5G network. This technology controls bandwidth automatically by automatically saving battery life through the elimination of unnecessary power consumption.

Why It Matters in the Indian Market

All the smartphone users in India are completely relying on mobile data for everything – streaming, social networking, online shopping, or work from remote locations. Battery life is a significant concern as nobody would want to stay awake in the middle of their work as a battery may have died. Keeping a promise of retaining 20-40% increase in a battery is excellent- especially in the very competitive markets like 5G. Other telecom players are already coming up with better 5G experiences. In this direction, when Jio can proclaim its power-friendly approach for giving the best to the battery of its users, it is worth more than anything that people may be looking for.

Market Reactions and Opinion of the Experts

The company’s statement has created huge ripples in the telecom industry, and it is mainly because it seeks the benefits of SA 5G while exploring their power efficiency across the world. Analysts note that the Jio 5G architecture is specially designed to yield the benefits mentioned above, but when it comes to type of handsets, network load, and usage, the outcome will vary from stated expectation, but if the claims are true for Jio, then this SA 5G network from Jio becomes an industry benchmark, and doors open to newer clients who look at performance along with efficiency as an enormous chunk.

Future of Jio’s Power Efficient 5G Network

With the SA 5G network of Jio now reaching every nook and corner of India, this reduction in energy consumption by the company may have more serious implications from a natural environmental point of view. Even the reduction in power consumption will not only give a better experience to the user but also align it with the sustainability goals because it reduces the number of charging cycles-a direct factor which helps reduce e-waste over time.

Thus, Jio at the pinnacle of innovation in an extremely competitive telecom landscape pushes hard towards energy-efficient 5G outlays a future where high-speed connectivity coexists with sustainable energy management. With data and feedback streaming in, the Indian industry would be quick to observe whether SA 5G by Jio can redefine battery performance for the Indian user.

New push for eco-friendly inventions and green technology may very well be a game-changer in the Indian 5G space as Jio is now not only competing with others in connectivity but also in green tech.
