JioBharat 4G feature phone prices have been dropped, ahead of the upcoming Diwali festival. The telecom operator’s feature phones with 4G connectivity are currently available for Rs. 699, down from their usual price of Rs. 999, as part of the operator’s ongoing JioBharat Diwali Dhamaka offer. The new offer was announced on Saturday. It will let 2G phone users upgrade to the JioBharat 4G phone at a discounted price. They can also use the JioBharat plan. It is presently the cheapest plan for feature phone users in the country.
The JioBharat K1 and JioBharat V2 can be purchased at Rs. 699 instead of Rs. 999 as part of the company’s limited period festive offer. The Rs. 300 discount will be available during the ongoing festive season. Customers should be able to avail of the discount until at least November 3.
Subscribers with a JioBharat 4G can opt for a monthly plan priced at Rs. 123 that is tailored for users of the feature phone. Jio claims their plan costs less than those offered by rival telecom operators. This allows users to save Rs. 76 per month.
Customers can save the equivalent of the JioBharat V2 in one year. They can also save as much as the JioBharat K1 without the JioBharat Diwali Dhamaka offer. However, the discounted price of Rs. 699 means that they will have effectively purchased the handset for free after 9 months.
