BlackBerry Bold 9930 to Cost $250 at Sprint?

Published

on

We know that the new BlackBerry Bold series from RIM, which includes both the BlackBerry Bold 9900 and Bold 9930, is an anticipated one. It’s definitely up there with the most exciting BlackBerry phones ever.

Heck, it even has me a little giddy. That being said, while we know about the carriers the phones are heading to, we’re still a little unsure about release dates and pricing.

Sprint Price Leak

We’ve heard August 21st for both of Sprint’s new BlackBerry’s, the Torch 9850 and the Bold 9930, but we’re still not one hundred percent sure. As for pricing, nothing is confirmed yet, but it appears that the Torch 9850 will be aggressively priced at $150 and if the latest leak from BGR is correct, the Bold 9930 is going to cost a whopping $250 smackaroos.

Surprised? So are we. That’s outlandish pricing for this device no matter the excitement. Find me someone that would pay $250 for this phone with a new two year contract. I bet you’d be hard pressed.

And this doesn’t seem to be a joke either. The $149 price for the Torch 9850 was unofficially confirmed yesterday and we know that the Conquer 4G is going to be $99 at Sprint and free at Walmart.

So, we have to ask. Would any of you out there pay $250 for the Bold 9930 with a two year contract ? Anyone at all?

    I am in the market for a new cell phone, so I’m considering all of my options, with all of the carriers.  Blackberry has been at the bottom of this list.  A $250 price tag for technology that is a DISTANT 3rd best knocked them off the list.  Nail in the coffin, RIM.

    I work for a defense contractor and cannot have a camera
    on my phone. If they have a non camera version I will have it for sure.
