However, everyone will be able to pre-book the 4G feature phone starting August 24, whereas shipments will begin sometime in September.
Reliance JioPhone Online and Offline booking
It’s easy to pre-book the JioPhone, if you have an access to the internet. All you need to visit the Jio.com and click on the Jio phone banner where the ‘Keep Me Posted’ button is located.

Even business customers can pre-book the Reliance JioPhone. The process isn’t too different, though the format is slightly detailed.

All calls, including STD are free on the Jio network.
