Is Ai+ Pulse 2 5G? No, it's 4G only.
Ai+ launched it in India on 2 March 2026 at ₹5,999. Launch source.
Ai+ Pulse 2 is 4G only. Tuvvo suggests a 5G phone instead.
156 of the 192 phones launched in India in 2026 are 5G (81%). A 4G phone can't use Jio or Airtel 5G at all, and a phone bought today should last 3 to 4 years. Already own it? No rush: 4G keeps working.
The closest 5G phones we recommend:
- Lava Shark 2 5G (₹11,999): A low-cost 5G phone with clean, ad-free Android and a big battery.
- Poco C85x 5G (₹14,999): A big-screen, big-battery 5G phone for people on a tight budget.
- Lava Virat V1 Pro 5G (₹15,999): A clean, ad-free 5G phone from Lava with a big battery and plenty of memory for the price.
Ai+ Pulse 2: common questions
- Is Ai+ Pulse 2 a 5G phone?
- No. Ai+ Pulse 2 is 4G only, so it cannot use Jio or Airtel 5G, even with a 5G SIM and a 5G plan.
- Should I buy Ai+ Pulse 2 in 2026?
- Tuvvo suggests skipping it. 156 of the 192 phones launched in India in 2026 so far are 5G (81%), and a phone bought today should keep up for 3 to 4 years. Buy a 5G phone instead: the closest we recommend start at ₹11,999.
- Which 5G phone should I buy instead of Ai+ Pulse 2?
- At ₹5,999, the closest 5G phones on Tuvvo's shortlist are Lava Shark 2 5G (₹11,999), Poco C85x 5G (₹14,999), Lava Virat V1 Pro 5G (₹15,999).
- I already own Ai+ Pulse 2. Do I need to replace it?
- No rush. 4G networks keep working in India, so a 4G phone still makes calls, runs apps and uses mobile data. Pick 5G when you next buy.
