BlackBerry presence in the Indian market isn't something that comes straight out of a fairy tale book. In fact, it has been quite the opposite with major names such as Samsung and Apple coming out with their respective Android and iOS offerings not helping its cause at all.

 

However, the company still garners a lot of hope inside while it prepares to release the brand new BlackBerry Z3 into the Indian market. The Z3 isn't really a brand new offering since it was already built exclusively and released in Indonesia. The makers decided to make tjhe device live in India after the kind of popularity it gained in Indonesia.

As we mentioned before, the Z3 is primarily arriving to compete in the affordable range in the market. And the Z3 is anyway set to be a very affordable device, since it has already been launched in Indonesia for a price tag that translates into Rs 11,500 when Indian currency is concerned.

And if that remains as the final pricing for the device, it's a mighty good deal we have to say. A device with a 5-inch form factor and being priced at just a little above 10k is quite the deal that you will get in that kind of a price range.

In fact, while you can side-load apps from any app store, BlackBerry is said to offer official access to the Amazon app store in the next few months. And that's quite a grand scheme.
