Camera and design details of JioBharat B1
Featuring a plastic exterior, the JioBharat B1 has a two-tone finish on its rear panel with a matte finish surrounding the glossy visor-like camera module. As per Amazon's listing, the visor houses a single QVGA camera and is expected to provide basic photography capabilities for users. The handset has a speaker too. Users can enjoy watching videos and movies on the 2.4-inch display using 4G connectivity, while the 2,000mAh battery ensures longer usage on a single charge.
Pre-installed Jio apps for entertainment and payment purposes
The JioBharat B1 comes pre-installed with popular Jio apps like JioCinema and JioSaavn, providing access to a vast array of movies, videos, sports highlights, and over eight crore songs in multiple languages.
