Launched with the mission to empower every Indian with digital services, JioBharat has marked a significant step towards digital freedom for the 250 million feature phone users in India, bridging the digital divide like never before. Since its launch a year ago, JioBharat has been transforming lives by offering features and digital capabilities such as UPI, JioCinema, and JioTV, enabling various segments of society to achieve more. This affordable device not only empowers users with smartphone capabilities but also provides high-quality and affordable data, making it accessible to the common people. Despite the recent industry-wide tariff increases, <keyword id="2003276" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Jio" source="Orion">Jio</keyword> has maintained consistent pricing for JioBharat, allowing users to enjoy full digital capabilities at just Rs 123 per month. In contrast, the most affordable plans from other operators start at Rs 199 per month and enables access to limited functionality, restricted to voice and SMS services, as their feature phones do not support data or LTE usage. In his letter to shareholders, <keyword id="19916798" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Mukesh-Ambani" source="keywords">Mukesh Ambani</keyword>, Chairman of Reliance Industries Ltd, stated, "The launch of the JioBharat phone is another revolutionary step towards bridging the country's digital divide. A smartphone at the price of a feature phone, the JioBharat phone will go a long way in realizing a 2G-mukt Bharat." In 2016, when Jio was launched, it left no stone unturned to democratise internet access and pass the benefits of technology to every Indian. With affordable high-speed data and a ubiquitous network, technology was no longer a privilege for a select few. The subsequent launch of affordable devices like <keyword id="22711694" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="jiophone" source="keywords">JioPhone</keyword> and the availability of affordable wired broadband (<keyword id="20282548" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="jiofiber" source="keywords">JioFiber</keyword>) has truly democratised data connectivity. "With the launch of Jio 4G in 2016, we set out on a journey to make digital inclusion in India a reality. Jio turned a Data Dark India into a Data Rich nation, supplying every Indian home with affordable, high-speed 4G data. And this year, Jio has further enhanced the country's digital infrastructure by rolling out its True5G network across India in world-record time," states Mukesh Ambani's letter to shareholders in the latest annual report released on Thursday.

It has been nearly ten months since and Jio has not revealed any information yet. However, a recent leak has now revealed the design and some of the specifications of the <keyword id="4792220" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="jiophone" source="Orion">JioPhone</keyword> 5G. While it is not clear if the device has been developed with Google, this won’t be the first time the telecom operator has partnered with the tech giant to launch a smartphone. In 2021, the company had launched the<a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/tech/news/jiophone-next-launch-in-india-price-specs-and-features/articleshow/87455678.cms"> JioPhone Next</a>, an affordable 4G smartphone in partnership with Google. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="JioPhone 5G live image" comment="subhead" text="JioPhone 5G live image">JioPhone 5G live image</cmsannotation> <div type="twitter" handle="ArpitNahiMila" handlename="ArpitNahiMila" favoritecount="0" retweetcount="0" id="1671799350329217028"></div> The new leak posted on Twitter shows the back and the front of the smartphone, along with Jio and 5G branding at the back. As expected for an affordable smartphone, the leaked device is expected to come with a plastic back. We can see from the leaked image that the device will feature a dual camera setup at the back, with the primary camera being a 13MP sensor. This could be equipped with a 2MP sensor. On the front, the device comes with a waterdrop notch with a selfie camera, which could be a 5MP sensor. The tipster has also mentioned that the device could be equipped with a Unisoc 5G chipset or the Dimensity 700 processor. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="JioPhone 5G launch and price" comment="subhead" text="JioPhone 5G launch and price">JioPhone 5G launch and price</cmsannotation> While Reliance Jio has not revealed any information about the smartphone yet, the tipster has mentioned that the device is expected to be launched between Diwali and new year. Considering that the company began its 5G rollout on Diwali in 2022, it is possible that it may use the same day for the launch of its smartphone. The JioPhone 5G is expected to be priced under INR 10,000. We expect the company to also announce bundled plans that will make the device cheaper. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Competition in the budget segment" comment="subhead" text="Competition in the budget segment">Competition in the budget segment</cmsannotation> The Indian budget smartphone segment is quite competitive and is dominated by Chinese smartphone companies such as Xiaomi, Oppo and Vivo.
