In a surprising move, Reliance Jio has rolled out new prepaid plans and a new feature phone, bringing excitement to users. Earlier this month, Jio had announced price hikes and the discontinuation of several prepaid plans offering OTT benefits, leaving customers confused. But now, the telecom giant has strategically addressed that gap by reintroducing plans with OTT access and launching the JioBharat J1 4G feature phone, priced at Rs 1,799.
Reliance Jio has introduced three new prepaid plans:
*
Rs 329 plan:
This plan offers 1.5GB of data per day, along with unlimited voice calls and 100 SMS per day, valid for 28 days. Subscribers also get access to JioSaavn Pro, enhancing their entertainment experience.*
Rs 949 plan:
This plan provides 2GB of daily data, unlimited voice calls, and 100 SMS per day, valid for 84 days. It also includes a complimentary 90-day Disney+ Hotstar subscription.*
Rs 1,049 plan:
This plan offers the same daily data and messaging benefits as the Rs 949 plan but includes subscriptions to Sony LIV and ZEE5 instead of Disney+ Hotstar. This plan is also valid for 84 days and, like the other plans, users can enjoy JioTV, JioCloud, and JioCinema.In addition to the new plans, Reliance Jio has launched the JioBharat J1 4G feature phone. Equipped with a 2.8-inch display and a 2,500mAh battery, this device supports apps like JioTV, JioSaavn, JioPay for UPI transactions, JioChat, and JioPhotos. The phone operates on ThreadX RTOS and includes a single SIM slot locked to Jio, along with a microSD card slot for expandable storage up to 128GB. The physical keyboard supports 23 languages, including Bangla, Gujarati, Hindi, and Marathi.
For users of the JioBharat J1 4G, two plans are available:
*
Rs 123 plan:
This plan offers 0.5GB of data per day, unlimited voice calls, and 300 SMS with a 28-day validity.*
Rs 1,234 plan (annual):
This plan provides the same benefits as the Rs 123 plan but is valid for 336 days.Both plans include complimentary access to JioSaavn, JioTV, and JioCinema.
