Reliance JioBook to run on ARM-based Windows 10

Unfortunately, the hardware approval listing only suggests that Reliance JioBook will run on Windows 10. Since the device has already got the BIS certification and even appeared on Geekbench, it is being speculated that it might be launched soon. Additionally, since the company has not confirmed the specifications or announced the device yet, there might be a possibility of improvement in future.

Surprisingly, the listing contains the name of a Chinese company called Emdoor Digital Technology Co LTD. Apparently, Emdoor Digital Technology is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer), which implies that Reliance will purchase the laptops from the company and brand them under the name JioBook. For reference, the company is one of the largest tablet and ultra-thin notebook solution providers in China and is based in Shenzhen. 

Back in November 2021, the Reliance JioBook appeared on a Geekbench test with the model number NB1112MM. The model that appeared for a benchmark test featured a MediaTek chipset - the MT8788 SoC, along with 2GB of RAM and scored 1,178 points in the single-core test and 4,249 points in the multi-core test.
