Counter to Reliance Jio- Idea to launch own phone
We all know Reliance Jio has announced it’s new Jiophone which is a feature phone with 4G capability at very low price. Counter to Jiophone Idea is planning to launch their own phone.
Himanshu Kapania, the managing director of Idea Cellular Limited, said
“One of the concerns is about net neutrality. It will not allow most of the apps which a customer prefers and the choice of apps may not work because it is forcing consumers to use an individual operator’s apps”
Idea is dealing with manufacturers to launch its own mobile phone. It will be slightly expensive compared to Jiophone.
Unlike Jiophone, the mobile will give access to users to install any application of their choice. Users can choose their operator, it will be not mandatory to use Idea network on the device. It can run popular applications like WhatsApp, Google, Facebook etc.
It will come around a price of Rs 2500 per unit and there will be no subsidy.
