Reliance Jio has expanded its product portfolio with the launch of a new budget-friendly 4G feature phone, the JioPhone Prima 2.

The phone features 512MB of RAM and 4GB of internal storage, offering users ample space for their basic needs.
JioPhone Prima 2: A look at its design and features
The JioPhone Prima 2 sports a candy bar-style design with an easily replaceable 2,000mAh battery. It boasts two cameras - one at the back and a selfie camera at the front. These cameras not only allow users to capture moments but also enable direct video calls without needing any third-party applications. The device's compact form factor and user-friendly design make it an attractive option for those seeking simplicity and functionality in their mobile devices.
JioPhone Prima 2: Software and language support
The JioPhone Prima 2 operates on KaiOS and comes pre-loaded with several apps including YouTube, Google Assistant, Facebook, JioPay (with UPI payments support), JioCinema, and JioChat. However, it does not support WhatsApp due to Meta's recent decision to withdraw WhatsApp support from KaiOS. The device also supports 23 different Indian languages, making it a versatile choice for users across the country.
JioPhone Prima 2: Additional features and network compatibility
The JioPhone Prima 2 is equipped with a 2.4-inch display that has a curved finish for comfortable viewing. It includes a microSD card slot, an LED torch, support for FM radio, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. However, the device is only compatible with the Jio network (limited to 4G). This means users will need to subscribe to one of Jio's special recharge plans designed specifically for JioPhones.
