• Mobile services

In terms of products, there are in-house Jio branded devices such as Jio Phones and Jionet Wi-Fi.

Jio Mobile

JioFiber

JioFiber broadband is provided directly to a person’s apartment/house, unlike other instances wherein the fiber connection is just available in the building serving anyone and everyone, which leads to limiting internet connection and speed. As this is a direct service, it gives consistent and high-speed internet.
 

Jio Business

JioBusiness Solution is a first-of-its-kind offering that is designed to help small and medium businesses leverage the power of digital technologies and manage to run their businesses more efficiently. Recently in March 2021, the company launched digital solutions for businesses bundled with services provided by Jio Platforms, Reliance Retail and Office 365. Jio Business plans start at ₹901 and go all the way up to ₹10,001 per month.

Here are the list of features that come along with Jio Business:

Jio branded devices

While Jio already offers a lot of branded services with its name, there are various Jio branded products/devices that are available in the market. One of the main branded devices is the mobile phones by Jio. The mobile phone series started in 2016 when the company launched its LYF smartphone series starting with Water 1. Over recent years, three more models have been released so far, namely Water 2, Earth 1, and Flame 1. The key feature of these phones is that they’re affordable in price and simplistic in their design, yet offer all the features of a smartphone.

The other renowned branded device is the Jionet Wi-Fi.

Jio Apps

Jio apps are another key offering by the company. In 2016, Jio launched a bundle of multimedia apps on Google play as part of its upcoming 4G services.
