So here we have it! After our unboxing video earlier last month, the BlackBerry Z30 is now officially launched in Singapore! It will be available, starting on 10 October, next week from the telco’s.
The recommended retail price for it at this point of time is $828, which is significantly lower than the BlackBerry Z10 and Q10 which is rather interesting.
As covered previously, BlackBerry Z30 comes with various improvements.
Such as:
– BlackBerry Priority Hub
– BBM Now in any App
– 5″ Super AMOLED Display
– Stereo Audio and BlackBerry Natural Sounds
– New Antenna Technology featuring BlackBerry Paratek Antenna
– Long battery life with a 2880mAh battery.
At the moment, however, only black will be available with white on hold at the moment.
“This is an exciting introduction, especially for customers in Singapore. The BlackBerry Z30 smartphone is built upon the unique mobile computing experience of the BlackBerry 10 platform and is design for people looking for a smartphone that excels at communications, messaging and productivity,” said Cameron Vernest, Managing Director for Singapore at BlackBerry.
