Amazon has added a fresh variant to the Jio Bharat phone lineup with the introduction of the Jio Bharat J1 4G. Priced at a budget-friendly Rs 1,799, this new model offers a big screen and a robust battery, aiming to attract cost-conscious consumers.

The Jio Bharat J1 4G builds upon the success of its predecessors, the Jio Bharat B2 and B1, as well as the Jio Bharat K1 Karbonn and V2. However, the J1 4G stands out as it is exclusively available on Amazon, with no listings on Reliance Digital or JioMart.

According to the Amazon listing, the Jio Bharat J1 4G boasts a 2.8-inch display. This affordable handset supports HD calling, UPI payments via JioMoney, and access to OTT services like Jio Cinema. The phone is powered by a removable 2,500mAh battery, ensuring prolonged usage on a single charge. Additional features include a 3.5mm audio jack for earphones, a 0.3MP camera, a torch, FM radio, and expandable storage up to 128GB.

The Jio Bharat J1 is a Jio SIM-locked device, meaning it requires a Jio SIM card to operate. It supports a single SIM and accommodates 23 Indian languages, catering to a broad user base. One of its standout features is 4G VoLTE support, enabling users to make clear voice calls over Jio’s extensive 4G network. The phone also comes preloaded with Jio apps, including JioPay for UPI payments, enhancing its functionality beyond basic calling and texting.

Priced competitively at Rs 1,799 on Amazon India, the Jio Bharat J1 provides an economical option for users seeking a feature phone with modern capabilities. This positions it slightly above the Jio Bharat B2 in terms of features and pricing. Meanwhile, the JioPhone Prima, at Rs 2,599, remains Jio’s premium feature phone offering.

With its budget-friendly price, essential features, and support for Jio’s robust 4G network, the Jio Bharat J1 4G is poised to be a compelling and affordable mobile phone option for Jio users.
