The phone comes packed with a 1 GB SD Card, allowing the user ample memory space to save or listen to his/her favorite music, anytime, anywhere!

The phone is loaded with other features like Music player, Music keys, FM Radio, Video playback, 1.3 MP camera, 1000 SMS and 1000 phonebook storage space, loud speakers, bluetooth and a large screen, the release added.

M.A. Madhusudan, chief executive officer, Virgin Mobile India said, “Music is at the core of youth culture, bollywood, jazz, hip-hop, rock, alternative, you name it, they know it! Our studies indicate that the existing phones in the market allow youth to carry a small collection of songs.”

He added that they have a desire to refresh music regularly. However, the music consumption is hindered by the exorbitant cost of downloading full length songs, which is about Rs.. 40-45 per song.

“With vJazz, youth can now refresh music 24/ 7 by accessing and downloading free unlimited full music tracks, anytime, anywhere with just one touch access to vMusic, the music client in the phone,” added Madhusudan
