Mobile Manufacturer BlackBerry has launched its new Z10 smartphone for the Indian market. The new smartphone has been launched for Rs.43,490. The best part is that the phone has the latest operating system BB10, which should help push sales, for the struggling phone manufacturer.

The BlackBerry Z10 will be available across all retail stores in 50 cities from February 26, 2013. The new smartphone has also launched just days before the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S4.

The next model Q10 has a physical QWERTY keyboard and will be launched by the month of April 2013. Moreover, India has become the first country in Asia Pacific to have the new BlackBerry Z10 on sale. This has also signaled the importance of the Indian market for the company which should help with the growth of Blackberry.

Some circles believe that this would be the last attempt by the company to conquer a heavy share loss in the Indian market as well as overseas. People have been favoring Samsung, which uses the Android OS, as well as Apple’s operating system IOS. It remains to be seen whether the new Z10 and Q10 will help BlackBerry will regain the high ranking it once enjoyed in the phone market.
