Exciting news is buzzing in the tech world as Reliance appears poised to introduce not just one, but two impressive Jio smartphones to the vibrant Indian market. Although official details on these upcoming devices are being held under wraps for now, a recent development has piqued the interest of enthusiasts. It seems these devices have garnered certification from the prestigious Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) website, hinting at their imminent debut. 

Keep your calendars marked for August 28, as Reliance is gearing up to host its Annual General Meeting (AGM), a prime platform for big reveals. Speculations are rife that the event might feature a significant announcement about the much-anticipated Jio Phones. 

The potential game-changing Jio Phones could potentially harness the power of the Snapdragon 480 SoC, harmonized with 4GB of RAM and a spacious 32GB onboard storage.

The rumor mill has been abuzz, and eagle-eyed tipster Mukul Sharma (@stufflistings) shared an intriguing screenshot of the alleged Jio Phones listing on the BIS website. According to the leak, the devices, carrying the model numbers JBV161W1 and JBV162W1, secured the BIS approval on an eventful Friday, August 11. Although the listing tantalizes us with the model numbers, it skillfully withholds any juicy tidbits about the phone’s specifications.

As anticipation mounts, let’s not forget that Reliance Jio has remained tight-lipped about divulging any specifics regarding the launch of their latest Jio Phones. The anticipation reaches its peak as the curtains rise for the 46th AGM of Reliance Industries, scheduled for August 28 at 2:00pm IST

All eyes are on Akash Ambani, the visionary Chairman of Reliance Jio, who is widely expected to unveil details about the enigmatic Jio Phones during this highly anticipated event.

This isn’t the first time the Jio Phones have taken center stage in the realm of speculations. An intriguing device, bearing the model number Jio LS1654QB5, made a cameo on the esteemed Geekbench benchmarking platform last year. 

The device strutted its stuff with the Snapdragon 480+ SoC, cozying up to an Adreno 619 GPU and a commendable 4GB of RAM.

As whispers circulated, earlier leaks hinted at an impressive 32GB internal storage and a noteworthy 13-megapixel dual rear camera ensemble on the upcoming 5G marvel. The chatter also suggested that the device might embrace the Android 12 experience, potentially showcased on a lush 6.5-inch HD+ LCD screen, dazzling with a 90Hz refresh rate. 

The selfie aficionados might have a treat in store with an 8-megapixel front-facing camera. And let’s not forget about the powerhouse that keeps it all running – a robust 5,000mAh battery, with the added convenience of 18W charging support.

For those inquiring about the potential price tag, insights from a CounterPoint Research report put forth a compelling range of Rs. 8,000 to Rs. 12,000 for the much-anticipated 5G delight.

All in all, the tech landscape is ripe with excitement as Reliance inches closer to possibly revolutionizing the smartphone sphere once again. Stay tuned for more updates, and brace yourselves for what could potentially be a groundbreaking AGM.
