Jio Phone Next was announced in June through India-based Reliance Jio’s 44th Annual General Meeting (AGM). At that time, the company claimed that it will be made available in the market on September 10thv. However, the company released a statement last month to say that it will be available for purchase in time for the Diwali festive season, which suggested that it could be released in the Indian market by October end or early November. While the company confirmed some of the key features of the JioPhone Next, it did not reveal any specifications. Now, the handset has appeared at the Google Play Console with some of its key specs.

The Jio Phone Next’s Play Console listing shows that its display carries support for an HD resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels. The device is powered by the Snapdragon 215 mobile platform and 2 GB of RAM. It runs on Android 11, which appears to be the Go edition.

Past reports have claimed that the JioPhone Next has a 5.5-inch display, an 8-megapixel selfie camera, and a 13-megapixel rear snapper. The 2 GB RAM variant of the device may offer 16 GB of storage, whereas the 3 GB RAM model may come with 32 GB of storage. The phone may house a 2,500mAh battery.
