Steps to Get Jio 4G SIM & Activate Jio Preview Offer with Micromax Smartphones
The Reliance‘s Jio 4G service is now running in the beta phase and is expected to go mainstream in next few weeks. From early 2016, Jio started bundling a free Jio 4G SIM with every LYF smartphone, and it includes Jio Preview Offer (JPO) activated for next three months. With the JPO activated SIM, the user gets unlimited usage of 4G data, calls, and SMS for free. Later, the company expanded JPO to Samsung and LG smartphones that support 4G VoLTE.
Now, Micromax is the first Indian smartphone brand to get the Jio 4G SIM with unlimited preview offer. Since the Jio 4G SIM works only on the 4G device, not all the Micromax smartphones are compatible to get a free Jio SIM. Below is the list of Micromax smartphones and tablets that support Jio 4G SIM.
