Reliance Jio is credited with bringing the internet revolution in India with its dynamic affordable mobiles and data packs. Now the Mukesh Ambani-owned Reliance is back once again with a groundbreaking product that will change the face of the Indian computer market forever. After affordable mobiles and data packs that helped millions of Indians to switch from 2G to 4G feature phones, ย Jio is set to launch affordable laptops in India. The product will not require wifi for connectivity. Instead, it will be equipped with an inbuilt sim card slot for cellular connectivity.

It is speculated that the Jio Laptop will be called JioBook.

Keeping aside the ongoing tussle between the dragoon and the New Delhi, Jio has tied up with the Chinese manufacturer Bluebank Communication Technologies. The company specializes in manufacturing mobile devices and software. Chipset manufacturer Qualcomm is also said to be on board with Reliance for manufacturing the Jio Laptop.
