JioPhone 5G: Pricing

The JioPhone 5G is expected to launch under Rs. 12,000. It could be announced at the Annual General Meeting of Reliance Industries Limited and launched around Diwali this year, as was the case with the JioPhone Next last year. Currently no smartphone manufacturer offers a 5G smartphone in this price bracket. However, with the rising cost of internal smartphone components, it will be interesting to see how Jio handles this scenario.
