It is planning a big portfolio of products across several categories, including smart home, smart entertainment, smart care and accessories. The company is also assessing the opportunities to start production in India.

"We are a global brand and come with global connections and resources including R&D and manufacturing setups. Our feature phones (Dizo Star 300 and Dizo Star 500) are made in India. We are evaluating options and with increasing consumer base and demand from India, we will definitely look at production opportunities here in India," Panda added.

Dizo to focus primarily on smartwatches and audio products

We are working towards making Dizo available across all your nearest retail stores.

Dizo vs rivals

"The product has to be great in terms of features and quality, and should be fulfilling consumers needs... Some competition brands are charging a lot of technology cost and also spending a lot of money on celebrity endorsements and other marketing activities, which definitely adds up to the cost for consumers," the top Dizo executive noted.
