Short answer: No.

Long answer: If you're already using JioFiber or AirFiber and just need a temporary desktop setup for basic browsing or Google Docs, the JioPC free trial might be worth trying. But don’t expect a full-blown PC experience.

It runs on Linux, takes a few seconds to respond (lag), and most “apps” are just web shortcuts (like Google Drive, Adobe Express, ChatGPT, etc). Perhaps, the only real & useful default application is Chrome browser.

You get no full app access, and gaming is limited to basic stuff like Sudoku. Since it's running on Linux, there’s no support for Microsoft 365 apps. Though there are still office apps such as Spreadsheets, Word, etc but the interface feels outdated compared to Microsoft.

Even with 8GB RAM and 100GB storage, performance is average. Even if you wanted & tried to, you can’t install many apps (let alone games) since out of the 100GB, only approx 65GB storage is available to use.

With that said, if you need something for browsing mainly, the JioPC does get the job done. Overall, the JioPC is fine for super-light use but not if you're expecting anything close to a regular PC.

You might be better off buying a basic ₹5000 phone instead of spending it on the JioPC annual plan. The Flipkart GOAT Sale is currently live and has pretty good deals on laptops.
