Reliance Industries launched a low-cost phone with 4G-enabled features in a bid to woo tens of millions of low-income users to its telecom service.
The handset, named JioPhone, will “effectively cost zero” as buyers will be able to get the device for a one-time refundable security deposit of 1,500 rupees.
Jiophone will be available from August 15 for trial and for pre-book from August 24.
Here are some of its features:
Alphanumeric keypad
4-way navigation
2.4 QVGA display
512 MB RAM
4 GB internal storage
2MP rear camera
2000mAh battery
Free voice calling
Reliance Jio will provide unlimited data on the phone for Rs. 153 per month.
This is in addition to the features of any other regular phone such as FM radio torch light, headphone jack, SD card slot and inbuilt ringtones.
