7 frequently asked questions about Jio Phones.



Q1 When will I be able to buy the Jio Phone?

Although, Jio had promised to start deliveries of the Jio Phone in September, the unprecedented  number of pre-bookings has pushed the actual availability to first or second week of October 2017.

Q2 Does the Jio Phone support Dual SIMs and WiFi Hotspot functionality?

No. The Jio Phone comes in only a single-SIM variant and works only on Jio’s network. Also, it does not have the facility to be used as a Wi-Fi hotspot.

Q3 How much storage do I get in the Jio Phone?

It has 4GB of internal storage, which can be further expanded up to 128GB via a dedicated memory card slot.

Q4 How is the battery performance of the Jio Phone?

It packs in a 2,000mAh battery! For a feature phone like this one, the battery capacity ensures that the phone will keep on running for 2 to 3 days on a single charge, with regular to heavy usage. Jio also claims a standby time of 15 days! Even if you are getting half of what is claimed, it a big win for this phone.

Q5 Does the Jio Phone run on Android?

No. It is powered by Kai OS, which is based on Mozilla’s micro-linux. Jio Phone even has its own app store which offers compatible apps to be used with the phone.

Additionally, it also has Jio’s suite of apps which includes favourites like Jio Music and Jio Movies. There’s a lite version of Facebook available on the phone and a similar version of Whatsapp is being developed specially for this phone.

Q6 Does the Jio Phone have a selfie camera?

Yes! The Jio Phone indeed carries a VGA selfie camera to complement a 2-megapixel primary camera. The quality of images, while not exceptional, is surprisingly good for a phone costing Rs. 1500/-. Especially the selfie camera.

Q7 I have heard that Jio Phone supports voice commands. Is it true?

Yes indeed! Ms. Ambani had demonstrated this feature on stage during launch. We tested this feature and found that this feature works very well, at least with English commands. We expect this feature to be improved with future updates.
