Last month, Reliance's carrier network arm Jio Infocomm Ltd revealed that the company will try to accumulate close to 100 million subscribers before the official launch. Since then, Reliance has been signing deals with multiple mobile-makers such as Samsung, Asus, LG, Panasonic and Micromax to bring Jio preview offer to more users.
Now, the company has joined hands with four more brands -- Lava, its subsidiary Xolo, Karbonn Mobiles and Gionee -- for the same.
Here is the list of devices eligible for Reliance Jio preview offer:

Benefits of Reliance Jio preview offer:
With this, smartphone users will be able to enjoy unlimited HD Voice (VoLTE), Video calling, unlimited SMS (9000), unlimited high speed data and Jio Apps for a period of 90 days.
Smartphone users can also enjoy more value-added services by downloading JioPlay, JioOnDemand, JioBeats and JioMoney.
Ever since Reliance extended the Jio preview offer from proprietary LYF brands to other smartphone brands in late July, it has witnessed a huge surge in registrations from the public. There are numerous reports of big crowd gathering at Reliance Digital/Xpress outlets across the country to purchase the Jio SIM.
This apparently has not gone down well with other network carriers. Airtel, Vodafone, Idea and others, who form the Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI), have registered a complaint with the government, accusing Reliance Jio of choking networks of its members, and rolling out full-fledged services to customers under the garb of trial offer.
However, the Mukesh Ambani-owned company lashed out at false accusations of the rivals and met DoT (Department of Telecommunications) officials to lodge a complaint against (COAI) for denying to increase inter-connection points and accused them of breach of license agreement and impeding Reliance Jio's smooth entrance to the market.
