Three UK now selling the BlackBerry Z10

Posted by James Richardson on 15 Feb 2013 7:36 am
The last of the major UK networks have now launched the BlackBerry Z10. Why they were a little late to the party I have no idea but you can now pick up the Z10 both online and in store from Three. For the best value you may want to consider the One Plan from Three which gives users All-You-Can-Eat data. This will cost £36 per month on a 24 month contract with a one off upfront fee of £69.

This also comes at a premium and with it only reaching certain cities around the country, some may say it is not currently worth getting an EE contract for 4G just yet. Three UK has recently announced that...

Despite positive sentiment, a lot of people have been eager to hear some hard sales numbers for the BlackBerry Z10.
