The BlackBerry 9320, 9720 and Q5 handsets have received price cuts in India officially with the QWERTY range starting from a rather competitive rate of under Rs 10000. The new promo is part of the company’s efforts to show its commitment in the QWERTY market and also offer fans an alluring deal on its classic devices, not to mention sell off its remaining stock.
The BlackBerry Q5 is the only smartphone which is part of the BB10 lineup. The 9720 and 9320 smartphones, on the other handset, fall in the outdated OS 7 portfolio. While special offers usually come with a time limit or similar strings attached, there’s no mention of such terms; so we’re assuming that these price cuts are permanent.
The BlackBerry Q5 is now available for Rs 13990, while the 9320 and 9720 are tagged at Rs 9900 and Rs 11990, respectively. The second phone is also the first 3G handset from the company to fall under the Rs 10000 price range.
