price and cost-effective

advancement of BlackBerry with the Z30 is undeniable. The phone is very beautiful and comfortable, even with its very large screen size, but also brings the main callus predecessors Z10 and Q10: the lack of applications. After all, the shop BB World presented no major breakthrough since the last release of the brand here and Z30 also brought no new aplitivos native of great expression.

Another factor that should weigh on consumer choice when the unit land here is the price. Whereas the Z10, current top line of the company in Brazil, came to R $ 2500, it is quite likely that the new device exceeds this value in his debut. Therefore, it is up to the consumer to decide if it is worth buying a beautiful handset, efficient and highly secure but weak in content.
