does iphone 12 currently available in India support mmWave 5G?

does iphone 12 (all models) currently available in India support mmWave 5G? or can it support it with an OTA update? all Indian carriers plan to roll out 5G in sub 6GHz and more importantly the mmWave band (26GHz band) when it is rolled out in the next 1-2 years and iphone 12 will be a dead investment if it doesnt support mmWave 5G.

iPhone 12 5G Australia After watching the iPhone 12 event in Australia I wanted to express my disappointment with the launch of the iPhone 12 yesterday to find that the 5G models for Australia will only have support for the SLOWER sub-6 GHz and not the FASTER mmWave which is being already being rolled out in Australia and expected in most places by next year. I have been an iPhone user since the beginning but can’t see any point in upgrading to the sub-6 GHz. I hope you can pass this message on to someone who can rectify this situation

No.

Only phones for use in the US have the antenna needed.
