Virtual Reality

Jio has around 1800 physical retail stores in India, which it could potentially use to demo the headset to prospective buyers.

It's unclear exactly how a Jio headset would achieve a significantly lower cost than the upcoming Quest 3S without making major compromises, though. Jio's smartphone does it by using a very low-end chipset, so it's possible the headset could use the original Snapdragon XR2 Gen 1 from Quest 2. Over time this would notably restrict the percentage of Horizon Store content that could run on the headset, and limit its mixed reality capabilities, but these compromises might be seen as necessary to sell well in the Indian market.
