Wonder how long we will have to wait for some discounts.
Z10 doesn't look good at $199 when all the other premium phones on Amazon are discounted for less
Galaxy 3 is only $10
9420 is $20

Hello that's a older phone that's why the price is low as the s4 is coming out just common sense

I know that both the S3 & 9420 are older phones... but there hardware is about the same as the Z10.
Not saying that the OS isn't better or that it isn't a great phone. Just that when an average user with no preconceived idea of what device they want, looks and does a comparison - that the Z10 isn't going to look good. BBRY needs either to drop the price on the Z10 pretty quickly or they need to release another device at a lower price point to be competitive. The only problem with a new device... is how will they make it cheaper? Smaller screen is about the only option, and that will not go over to well...

550$.... So cheap compared to other countries :(

I know! In México it's going to be available tomorrow at 8 5 0 without a contract; and at 4 4 0 on a 2 year plan with a monthly cost of 7 2, that includes 1 0 0 0 minutes and only 7 0 0 MB! Yeah, that wasn't a typo!
To make things worst, for some brilliant reason BlackBerry México decided to give a timed exclusive on the Z10 to only one carrier (Telcel)! For how long? It's rumored to last for 2 months, but there's no official word. Of course, that's not my carrier. Shouldn't BlackBerry try to put the Z10 in as many hands, in as little time, as possible? It looks as if Apple, Google or Samsung planned the Z10 launch in México. Call me crazy, but I´m guessing the pricing has a lot to do with the exclusivity.
And the ironic part? The Z10 is made in México! I know, duties and taxes have to be paid anyway, but it certainly should cost less than 8 5 0 or 4 4 0.
Anyway, I'll have to either wait and see what happens exclusivity and pricing wise, or look for a way to import a couple of unlocked Z10s (yes, obviously my wife wants one).
Thank you BlackBerry México!
Note: All quantities refer to American currency. I had to delete the money symbol or name because CrackBerry was marking my comment as spam.

aww you mad bro cause you didn't post first?
Gozeta Mar 22, 2013 at 11:52 am
$199 for a 2 year contract is to high? I payed 350 for 2 year with Fido and Roger's had it at 199 for a 3 year here in Canada on release date . Worth every bit for the Z10.

QuIcKsIlV3r Mar 22, 2013 at 12:00 pm
Umm no... Rogers had it for $139 on a 3yr on launch day...
skoenig Mar 22, 2013 at 11:56 am
@scalemaster34 how much were those older premium phones when they first came out? You're comparing apples with pears.... in time the Z10 will drop and be bundled etc just like the others.
Amazon might save you a little sales tax.
Unlocked Z10 can be had on Amazon for around $640 or ebay for a similar amount.
c4n4ro5 Mar 22, 2013 at 11:59 am
In Czech Republic is about $ 782...

kazmi Mar 22, 2013 at 12:36 pm
showing up as $599 for me?
skoenig Mar 22, 2013 at 12:59 pm
@kazmi... I think the 199 is for new signups/renewals on ATT... maybe you're getting the contractless pricing if you're on Verizon... Verizon's version will be available 28th March, T-mobile 27th March...

I'd love to know how your contracts work cost me £49.99 for a 2 year contract, at £36 a month

JREwing Mar 22, 2013 at 8:52 pm
Why is this $653.99 from Amazon and it's only $549 from ATT? I'm buying off contract.
vagos2006 Mar 22, 2013 at 9:28 pm
Rogers now has the Z10 for $99 on 3 year contract.
