Last year, in July, Reliance Jio announced that it would be launching its first 5G smartphone in India soon. The device was expected to debut in July this year. However, there have been no signs of a launch yet.
Now, 91mobiles has revealed the key specifications of the upcoming Jio Phone 5G. The report cites Kuba Wojciechowski as the source who has provided the details of the device via a firmware leak.
According to the report, the Jio Phone 5G is codenamed “Ganga” and has the model number “LS1654QB5”. The device is expected to have a 6.5-inch HD+ LCD screen with a refresh rate of 90Hz. The Snapdragon 480 processor, which is Qualcomm’s entry-level 5G SoC, powers the device. This processor will be paired with 4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage.
The device is also said to have a 5,000mAh battery with 18W fast charging support. The device also has a dual rear camera setup on the back, with a 13MP main camera and a 2MP secondary lens. For optics, it is expected to have an 8MP camera on the front. The operating system will be based on Android 12, and because it is expected to have 4GB of RAM, we can expect the full version of Android OS rather than the Android Go Edition. Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 5.1, and a Syntiant NDP115 always-on AI processor are also included.
Considering these leaks, the Jio Phone 5G appears to be a decent entry-level 5G device at the Rs 8,000-12,000 price point.
