Tech Updates: Jio and Meta partnership!

 

Jio and Meta partnership: It is reported that Reliance Jio is talking about bringing a cheap VR headset in collaboration with Meta, which will be made especially for the Indian market. The purpose of this partnership is to use Meta's Horizon OS, which is much better than Jio's existing VR device JioDive. JioDive is just a basic VR device that uses the screen of a mobile phone. Let us tell you, that Apple has recently introduced Apple Vision Pro, which is very expensive. If Jio brings an affordable VR device in partnership with Meta, then Apple may be worried.

The conversation is going on

According to a report by The Information, talks are still going on between Reliance Jio and Meta and no official deal has been made yet. Reliance Jio has a history of working with global tech giants such as Google to bring innovative products to India. This new VR headset could be a good add-on to the country's growing tech ecosystem, especially when the 5G network is expanding.

Meta has a 10% stake in Jio

Meta and Reliance Jio have been together since 2020. Meta holds a 10% stake in Reliance Jio. The two companies have previously worked together on several projects, such as integrating e-commerce services into WhatsApp. But so far, both companies have not said anything official about these latest talks.

AGM on August 29

Reliance Industries' AGM is scheduled to be held on August 29. Big announcements are expected at this event, especially about the IPOs of Reliance Jio and Reliance Retail. The whole world is keeping an eye on these IPOs, and also on Reliance Jio's future plans and products, which may also include a new VR headset.
