Jio has been investing heavily in network infrastructure to grab a bigger market share. Earlier this month, Reliance Jio launched the 'Jio Bharat V2' 4G smartphone for just Rs 999. According to the company, this is the lowest entry price for an internet-enabled phone in the country and will help in the transition ]from 2G to 4G networks. It said that the new 'Jio Bharat' smartphone will enable existing 250 million feature phone (2G) users with internet via the 'Jio Bharat' platform that leverages device and network capabilities to deliver internet-enabled services on entry-level phones.
The beta trial for the first 1 million Jio Bharat phones began in the country on July 7.
"There are still 250 million mobile phone users in India who remain 'trapped' in the 2G era, unable to tap into basic features of the internet at a time when the world stands at the cusp of a 5G revolution," said Akash Ambani, Chairman, Reliance Jio. READ MORE
