BlackBerry Torch 9800 acquires a reduction whereas Nokia N8 gets high-priced


Thursday August 19, 2010

The BlackBerry Torch 9800 is now available at cheap rates whereas the Nokia N8 price rises. The Torch is getting a 50% cut rate after just one week of sales, while the N8 is once again pre-order for more than the 370 euro it assures.

The BlackBerry Torch 9800 is the third touch-operated Berry, and the very first slider. It launched a week ago for 199 US dollars, but now goes for only 99 USD. You still have to sign a contract, but a 100 dollar cutback in price is no at all a bad deal.

When the Nokia N8 was announced its recommended retail price was 370 euro (475 USD). Right now it's accessible on the Nokia USA site for pre-order with a $550 price tag (430 euro). That's 60 euro over (still better than the 470 euro price tag from Amazon Germany), but not quite what Nokia promised. Let's hope that the price will fall when the phone is at last available.

Speaking of availability, it's listed as "End of September", which is on track with some of the rumors, though we've heard August 26 too.
