Last year, Reliance Jio announced that its first 5G smartphone, called the Jio Phone 5G, will launch in India around July 2022. Missing that timeframe, the talks about this 5G smartphone got cold. However, a recent Geekbench listing reignited the hope that the device might finally be on its way.
Now, it has been stopped by the Bureau of Indian Standards, signaling that it is on its way to launch soon. The device was spotted with model number LS1654QB5 on the certification website. Although the listing does not reveal any information regarding the smartphone, We already have a pretty good idea of what to expect thanks to several leaks. Let’s take a look at the information available so far.
Jio Phone 5G specs (rumored)
So far, rumors floating online state that the Jio Phone 5G will come with a 6.5-inch HD+ LCD screen that offers a refresh rate of 90Hz. The device will have an Android 12-based operating system, which could feature a forked version of Android called the PragatiOS.
Under the hood, there will likely be a Snapdragon 480+ chipset from Qualcomm. This chipset will be paired with 4GB of RAM and 65GB of onboard storage. A 5,000mAh battery with 18W fast charging is said to power the device.
The rear camera setup is expected to include a 13MP primary lens and a 2MP secondary lens. The device is said to have an 8MP camera on the front. Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 5.1, and an always-on Syntiant NDP115 AI processor are also expected.
