Reliance Jio- Data plan list all you need to know

Reliance has taken  step to make India digital by launching JIO.

The Jio sims are available now for a bunch of mobile's but reliance has said that Jio will be available to all mobile's that supports 4G after September 5.

Now lets see what is the data rates given by jio

The call rates will be free the user will have to pay only for data.

Ambani said -  Jio will charge only 5 paise per MB, or Rs. 50 per GB. What's more, the greater the usage, the lower the cost will be, and the rates could go down to Rs. 25 per GB.

The Jio 4G tariffs start at Rs. 149 for 28 days, for 300MB. For Rs. 499 per month you get a big step up, to 4GB of 4G data, plus unlimited 4G at night, for 28 days. You'll also get 8GB of access from Reliance Jio's upcoming network of Wi-Fi hotspots, further increasing the amount of data you can use. For Rs. 999, that goes up to 10GB of 4G data, and 20GB of Wi-Fi usage, plus unlimited usage at night. Further plans are for Rs. 1,499 for 20GB, Rs. 2,499 for 35GB, and Rs. 3,999 for 60GB of 4G data, and twice as much Wi-Fi usage respectively. 

The most expensive plan is for Rs. 4,999 for 75GB of 4G usage plus unlimited 4G usage at night, and 150GB of Wi-Fi data. The postpaid plans are similar, but you'll be paying taxes as well.

Ambani said. "Our data plans go even further with an effective rate of 5p/MB or Rs. 50/ GB." Students will get 25 percent extra data on the tariffs, if they show a valid ID when signing up for Jio.


Apart from the data rates, Ambani also announced that the full suite of Jio apps - for streaming movies, music, and live television - will be completely free for all users until December 2017.

Pokemon GO Review

Whats up guys just heard about the new game called pokemon GO which makes you travel between the real world and the virtual world of pokemon. Everyone has seen pokemon and are a die hard fan of it so this game allows you to feel that you are actually playing with them (like you are the Ash)

It can be played as a single player or multiplayer so get on your feet and step outside to find and catch wild Pokemon. 

Explore cities and towns around where you live and even around the globe to capture as many Pokemon as you can. As you move around, your smartphone will vibrate to let you know you're near a Pokemon. Once you've encountered a Pokemon, take aim on your smartphone's touch screen and throw a Poke Ball to catch it. Be careful when you try to catch it, or it might run away! Also look for PokeStops located at interesting places, such as public art installations, historical markers, and monuments, where you can collect more Poke Balls and other items.

The game was launched on 6th of july and is available on both the platforms i.e Android and Apple.

The game is a lot of fun but it drains the battery as hell because it constantly needs mobile data and GPS.

If you are on 2G data this game can become unresponsive but overall this game is a good one and you should try it

You can download the apk file from here
