Rogers, Telus Now Accepting Pre-Orders For The BlackBerry Q10

blackberry z10, q10

Rogers and Telus, two of the biggest telecom service providers in Canada have said they are now accepting pre-orders for the Blackberry Q10 smartphone. Q10 is only the second device after Z10 to run the company’s latest BB10 operating system. Both the carriers have priced the Q10 at 200 Canadian dollars for a three year plan. However, while Roger has said they expect the shipping to start within weeks, its better with Telus since they have a specific launch date, April 29 to go with the pre-order process. The going has been fairly good for Z10 so far and its makers expect the same level of enthusiasm with its Q10 smartphone as well. The biggest distinguishing factor with the Q10 is the QWERTY keyboard below the touchscreen display. This has been the classic design theme with Blackberry phones of yore and the company believes this will appeal to their longtime followers, mainly from the business fraternity.

Other retailers in Canada such as Future Shop and Best Buy Co have also stated they are taking pre-orders for the Q10. The smartphone was launched first in the UK followed by Canada though it could be a few months before it makes its debut in the US. This if Blackberry follows a launch plan similar to the Z10 with its Q10 as well. There is no word as yet as to when the rest of the world will get to sample the new Q10.

Meanwhile, turn to goodereader app store for BB10 specific apps, which happens to be the largest alternative to Blackberry World.
