Blackberry 10 is due to launch today and many people in the Middle East are eager to get their hands on the device. Unofficially it is rumored that the device will be available in the grey market for AED/QAR4,000 and they would be available by end of first week of February. According to a UK retailer’s database, the Z10 with an internal storage of 32GB will cost £480 (AED/QAR 2,774) without a SIM. This price was listed as part of an alleged screenshot of an inventory list, which came from UK retailer Carphone Warehouse,
The BlackBerry Z10 is rumored to come with 4G LTE connectivity and a 4.2-inch display with a resolution of 768 x 1280, packing 355 pixels per inch. Additionally, the smartphone may feature a microSD card slot that can hold up to 32GB of storage, an 8-megapixel camera, 2GB of RAM and 16GB of storage space, and a dual-core 1.5GHz processor.
We would be blogging through out the day about various updates on the BB 10 Launch. Later in the day we would be covering the event live from Armani Hotel, Dubai.
