Reliance JioBook laptop: Price and availability
Reliance has launched the laptop at Rs 16,499 and it is now available for purchase via Amazon India website.

Reliance JioBook laptop: Features
JioBook is a compact laptop that is aimed at students. It features an 11.6-inch HD anti-glare display and is powered by Mediatek MT 8788 Octa Core/2.0 GHz/ ARM V8-A 64-bit, 4GB LPDDR4 RAM and 64GB storage which can be expanded by up to 256GB via microSD card slot.
The laptop runs Jio OS out of the box and Jio claims that it has been designed like a PC for minimum learning curve for users. JioOS comes with over 75 shortcuts, support for native apps, extended display, touchpad gestures and more.
The laptop claims 8+ hours of battery life and comes with stereo speakers, an infinity keyboard and a large touchpad.
It’s always connected. JioBook comes with multiple connectivity options including an in-built 4G SIM card that keeps the devices always on and always connected. However, users will be required to activate the SIM card via the Jio website or the MyJio app. Furthermore, JioBook also comes with dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4GHz and 5GHz) support out of the box.
In addition to all these, Jio has also included its own services like JioTV, JioGames and more.
At this price, it is hard to find anything in the market. Considering the idea of Netbooks is already dead, the JioBook is probably the only option you can get.
