Now BlackBerry has lowered the prices of two of its handsets in India, and for one of them it will be the first time the price has been cut in the country since it launched. We have details of the BlackBerry Z3 and Z30 price cuts for India, so read on for more.

Both of these are touchscreen smartphones and we’ll begin with the BlackBerry Z3. This arrived for its India launch last year priced at Rs. 15,990 and this initial price cut for the handset will save you Rs. 2,000 as it will now be priced at Rs. 13,990.
