UK pricing and a new release date for the BlackBerry Bold 9790 smartphone have appeared online.
Online retailer Clove will be selling the BlackBerry Bold 9790 for £342 (including VAT) with first stock expected January 20th. Clove is also taking pre-orders for the phone.
The BlackBerry Bold 9790 is the younger sibling to the excellent BlackBerry Bold 9900, one of the best email/messaging phones on the market, continuing the touchscreen/full QWERTY
The chassis is smaller, so it’s lighter to hold, with slightly smaller keys and a smaller screen. But the feature set is much the same, including BBM, push email, a full version of Documents to Go, along with a 5-megapixel camera and NFC chip.
At £342, it’s £124 cheaper than the Bold 9900. A considerable saving, but putting it in the mid-tier smartphone range.
The Bold 9790 is also available on O2 and Orange, although neither network has confirmed UK pricing or availability yet.
