View an early unboxing of the T-Mobile BlackBerry Q10; launch coming June 5th?

T-Mobile was originally going to sit out the launch of the QWERTY equipped BlackBerry Q10. Whether it was an epiphany that came to the executives of the fourth largest U.S. carrier, or the result of in-house surveys, T-Mobile did a reversal and will indeed carry the second BlackBerry 10 powered handset released by the Canadian OEM.

One of the reasons for T-Mobile's about-face could be the idea that true BlackBerry fans held back from purchasing the all-touch BlackBerry Z10 because of the lack of a physical keyboard on the device. And if there is one thing that we know, just as we all need to breathe the air, drink water, and carry a smartphone in order to live, BlackBerry fans need that QWERTY keyboard on their phones to survive.

A gentleman named Geoffrey Gordon was able to obtain a T-Mobile branded BlackBerry Q10 and he took a video as he unboxed the device with the 3.1 inch 720 x 720 screen. Besides the device and the usual brochures, manuals and guides, the box contained the charger and the battery. We're not sure how Geoffrey was able to get his hands on the BlackBerry Q10 from T-Mobile, but Gordo is probably a very popular fellow wherever he lives.

The latest runmor has the BlackBerry Q10 launching June 5th from T-Mobile for a down payment of $99.99 with the balance paid off in 24 installments of $20 each making the total cost of the phone $579.99.
