just got off the phone w/ rep,,, Z30 will be released on or about 1 Nov.,,, $199 w/ contract / $699 buy outright...

[raino]

$700 for the one LTE band version,,,,ouch

[SEAWARRIOR]

$700 for the one LTE band version,,,,ouch

they probably figure that's what everyone else is charging, regardless of bands available, & just ran w/ it,,, rep stated that the $199 price is to compete w/ the i5, & Samsung & HTC prices...

If Sprint gets it first, I just might have to make a change. It's about time we heard something from Sprint. When the first pictures dropped, Sprint was the only name mentioned, then, poof, gone. Would like to get it straight-out, but with it being $700, I going to have to think twice about my usual route.

In terms of the one LTE Band, what does that really mean for reception? I have the Q10 now and don't have any issues. Will the single band have issues?

No issues. The LTE band in there is the one Sprint uses (the same one that's in the Q10.) This model is being made specifically for Sprint.

I'm wondering if Sprint will have it in their stores or you have to order online.

I present to you the person at BlackBerry who thought that was a great price for this device:

Lol. TBH, I don't see a lot of people buying off-contract on Sprint. It's not like they're forcing customers into full price buys to keep their unlimited plans. Most of the purchases will likely be 2 year contracts.

[davidmcromano]

That's a pricey one. Hopefully that date stands true which means other carriers in the US will be releasing around then too. Also since the Z30 will have 10.2 hopefully that'll mean that carriers will be pushing 10.2 out to the current Z10 and Q10 owners who are patiently waiting (that's me).

[Jon Tessler]

That would be great if it holds true. I will be getting this as soon as it is released.

$700 for the one LTE band version,,,,ouch

depending on your location, best buy carries thier phones,,, if sprint only sells online, maybe you can get your paws on one there...

I'll add, Best Buy carries them with having to mess with mail-in rebates, too.

in my experience, they've applied them on the spot...

[Kendall Oei]

Maybe Sprint will redeem themselves in my eyes. Left them to get the Z10.

This is the same response we got about the Q10 up until the day it was actually launched on Sprint.

[oldmanjenkins]

This is what I received from AT&T regarding any information related to release date(s).
