Taiwanese firm MediaTek today said it is working with Reliance Jio for using its chipset that is designed for entry-level Android Go Oreo edition smartphones.
MediaTek General Manager (Wireless Communications BU) TL Lee said the devices are expected to be rolled out in the first quarter of the year.
“In addition to their own 4G feature phone, RJio is working hard with not only MediaTek but also Google for smartphone devices... entry level Android Go,” he told reporters here.
Lee said the company is focussed on bringing more premium features such as support for face unlock, 18:9 display and dual 4G VoLTE on entry and mid-level smartphones in the country.
Besides, MediaTek has designed ‘Sensio’ — a 6-in-1 biosensor module that can allow users to monitor health parameters like blood pressure and oxygen levels through their smartphones.
The company is engaged in dialogue with multiple players globally in the health ecosystem for deploying the module.
