Ever since the newbie telecom operator Reliance Jio stormed the country by its disruptive data plans and lucrative marketing strategy, the Indian telecom sector has witnessed a turf war wherein the telecom giants in the country including Airtel, Idea and Vodafone have been forced to update their data plans and offers in order to lure back their customers and prevent them from migrating to Jio.
After creating an uproar with its data and voice plans, Jio is now planning to launch its 4G-enabled feature phone– Jio Phone. The device will not only help the company to gain more customers but also help the people to migrate from 2G network to 3G network directly.
