BlackBerry Curve 9350 coming to Sprint on October 2

Sprint has officially announced that the BlackBerry Curve 9350 will be hitting their network on October 2 and can be had for the affordable price of $79.99 with a new two-year activation or qualified upgrade.

The BlackBerry Curve 9350 is the latest release from RIM to run on OS 7. It’ll join the BlackBerry Bold 9930 and the BlackBerry Torch 9850 in Sprint’s smartphone stable. The Curve 9350 is considered the entry-level BlackBerry but it boasts some decent specifications.

The Curve 9350 maintains the popular form factor that has been RIM’s signature for years. It has a 2.44-inch display sitting right above a full QWERTY keyboard. There is also an optical trackpad that makes navigating the handset easy. Powering the device is an 800MHz processor as well as 512MB of RAM. A 5 megapixel camera is present on the back of the device with an LED flash, but video recording is limited to VGA quality.

The BlackBerry Curve 9350 is available at an even better price for eligible Sprint business customers. It can be had for $49.99 with a new two-year activation or a qualified two-year upgrade. Even if you aren’t a business customer, $79.99 for this handset isn’t too bad of a deal at all. Check one out once October 2 rolls around.
