BlackBerry Bold 9900 launched, priced!

Research in Motion Philippines launched the BlackBerry Bold 9900 tonight at the Ayala Museum. The handset is set to be released this October 7, 2011 and will be available in stores nationwide.

The suggested retail price for the open-line BlackBerry Bold 9900 is Php31,690 and comes with a 24-month warranty. RIM claims that BlackBerry handsets are the only smartphones that support up to 24 month warranty.

The BlackBerry Curve 9360 and the BlackBerry Torch 9860 were also introduced but release date and pricing in the Philippines is yet to be announced.

We already did some hands-on time with the BB Bold Touch 9900 back in June and you can check out my video and first impressions here.

    Yup! you’re absolutely correct @bustos, but many people are getting interested of this mobile because of good data plan service (philippines) :p

    I’m a fan both Apple and RIM, they have a good quality in terms of specifications. :D I just love them ;)

    The BB9900 is awesome. If you are a BB user, it is well worth it.

    I have owned a torch and a curve. i like the curve more. all blackberries are the same. you made a wrong decision selling your 9780 for the 9900. The only difference is the touchscreen which im sure you wont bother to use anyway.

    I need some help guys. I really want to buy the Blackberry Bold 9900. I sold my Blackberry Bold 9780 2 days ago, knowing yesterday was the launch day for the new Blackberry and now they’ve made the launch date on October 7th. I am using a spare phone (Nokia E90) at the moment and I really want to move back to Blackberry ASAP. My friend told me that he could buy me a Blackberry Bold as of now for 28.5K with 1 year warranty and it would be unbranded unit. I am in bewilderment as to what I should do. Please guys, help me!
    Thanks !!

      Based on its outdated specs, this phone should be worth only about 18-20 thousand pesos. In essence, you’re paying over 10 thousand more for the Blackberry name and the chance to use the Blackberry services.
