The upcoming developer and public beta of iOS 16.2 will officially enable 5G for iPhone in India on select carriers, Apple has told Indian Express.
Apple had previously confirmed it was working with carriers in India, including Airtel and Jio, to bring 5G support to iPhone users in the country. Apple said it would begin its 5G rollout in the country in December.

I'm interested - why does 5G support have to be rolled-out regionally?
Countries have different variations and regulations on the spectrum, so the equipment also varies. Carriers also have different equipment - which is why only the US models have mmWave.

I thought Apple can enable 5G with a new carrier file rather than requiring a full software update?
