Verizon BlackBerry Q10 available for $69.99

If you've been thinking about purchasing the Verizon BlackBerry Q10 Amazon is offering the smartphone for $69.99, a considerably lower price than the $199.99 Verizon currently charges.

BlackBerry was king of the smartphone world just a few years ago until it was caught off guard by the iPhone and a slew of Android smartphones joining its smartphone's on retail shelves. The Canadian company played the waiting game for too long and it failed to keep up with companies such as Apple and Samsung, who would soon take the title away and make BlackBerry seem like an irrelevant player in the mobile world. Blackberry decided that the only way to compete with iOS and Android would be to bring an updated version of its BlackBerry OS to its smartphones, offering some similar and new features found compared to the two market leader's mobile devices.

BlackBerry 10 is what the company believed would be its best hope at climbing back up to relevancy and it was right. If you've ever used the BlackBerry Z10 there's no denying that BlackBerry did an exceptional job with BB10. It still feels like the familiar BlackBerry OS that millions of consumers have grown fond of, but brings with it an ultra-intuitive and gesture-based operating system.

The BlackBerry Q10 follows up very nicely on what made BlackBerry the king of the smartphone world a few years ago. It offers users the next-generation and very impressive BlackBerry 10 operating system on a physical QWERTY-packing smartphone. If you've been hanging onto that BlackBerry Bold, Curve, or Torch because the BlackBerry Z10 did not offer the "BlackBerry keyboard", you can get the Verizon BlackBerry Q10 for $69.99 from Amazon when signing a new 2-year contract.

The Verizon BlackBerry Q10 features a 3.1-inch diagonal 720 × 720 Super AMOLED display with a pixel density of 330 pixels per inch (ppi) and runs BlackBerry 10 OS. The smartphone is powered by a dual-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus processor with 2GB of RAM to provide increased performance and BlackBerry has also included an 8-megapixel rear camera and a 2-megapixel front-facing shooter. The handset packs 16GB of internal storage and also has a microSD expansion slot that will support up to 32GB microSD cards. Other features include a micro HDMI port, 4G LTE radio, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS, NFC and a removable 2,100 mAh battery. Interested buyers can head over to Amazon and get the Verizon BlackBerry Q10 for a lower price.
