BlackBerry's new flagship smartphones are expected to be officially announced in India on February 25.
BlackBerry is reportedly going to launch its BlackBerry 10 OS-based smartphones, the Z10 and Q10, in India on February 25. The company has already sent teaser invites for a Mumbai event on that day, according to reports.
Earlier this month, reports had said BlackBerry would not be delaying the launch of its new flagship smartphones in its major markets including India and might roll out the device in the country by the end of the month. The pricing of the new BlackBerry smartphones, according to analysts, holds the key to BlackBerry’s success. The full touch BlackBerry Z10 is expected to be priced around Rs. 39,000, which is quite high compared to other BlackBerry devices available in the country.
