4G Blackberry Bold 9900, Curve 9360 and Torch 9860 Headed to AT&T

BlackBerry fans will be delighted to know that the BlackBerry Torch 9860 and BlackBerry Bold 9900 as well as the BlackBerry Curve 9360 will all be making their way to AT&T and the most important thing is that all these smartphones will be having 4G with nearly four times network speed capability as compared to previous models.

The consumers don’t have to pay high price to get these BlackBerry smartphones. According to a press release, this broadest portfolio of BlackBerry smartphones is available from $29 to $199, so customers can choose the best form factor for their needs at a great price. These 4G models include the Bold 9900, the all-touch Torch 9860, and the previously-released Torch 9810, the first 4G BlackBerry smartphone from AT&T.

3 4G smartphones utilize AT&T's 4G HSPA+ network to deliver network speeds nearly up to four times faster than most previous 3G BlackBerry smartphones.

 Additionally, AT&T is also releasing the new BlackBerry Curve 9360 smartphone, which is a significant upgrade of the Curve series, and a great option for messaging-intensive and socially active consumers and business users.

“Our BlackBerry enthusiasts will welcome these three new BlackBerry smartphones to AT&T's premium smartphone lineup – the new BlackBerry Bold 9900, all-touch Torch 9860 and Curve 9360,” said Jeff Bradley, senior vice president, Devices, AT&T Mobility and Consumer Markets. “From new and improved versions of BlackBerry classics to AT&T's first-all touch BlackBerry smartphone as well as 4G models, our leading suite of BlackBerry smartphones has something for everyone – government, business and everyday consumers – at the best prices available in the market.” 

The BlackBerry Bold 9900, distinguished by its iconic Bold design and full QWERTY keyboard,  will be available starting November 6 for $199.99 with a two-year contract online and in company-owned retail stores and BlackBerry Torch 9860, AT&T's first all-touch BlackBerry smartphone will be available online the same day for $99.99 with a two-year contract.

The BlackBerry Curve 9360, a slim, stylish  smartphone with 2.44-inch hi-resolution display and 5MP camera with flash and video recording, will be available for $29.99 with a two-year contract starting November 20 in company-owned retail stores and online.
