BlackBerry Torch 9850 and Curve 9350 to be launched by US Cellular
By Florin on 11 Jul 11The CDMA versions of the unannounced BlackBerry Torch 9860 and BlackBerry Curve 9360 – namely the Torch 9850 and Curve 9350 – seem to be making their way to US Cellular.
Both new smartphones have appeared on the carrier’s mail-in rebate form for July 15 – November 20, which should mean they’ll be released in November the latest. The rebate form also shows the HTC Desire II and HTC Wildfire S (we’ve previously heard that these would be introduced US Cellular), plus some phones that are already available – thus it’s probably legit.
Unlike the previous two Torch smartphones, the Torch 9850 / 9860 won’t have a hardware keyboard. Instead, it will come with a a 3.7 inch WVGA display, Wi-Fi, a single-core 1.2GHz processor, and BlackBerry OS 7.
Also running BlackBerry OS 7, the Curve 9350 / Curve 9360 should feature a 2.4 inch HVGA screen, 800MHz processor, and a standard QWERTY keyboard.
It’s quite possible that Verizon and Sprint will offer the Torch 9850 and Curve 9350, too, since they’re CDMA devices. We’ll provide more details as soon as new info is unveiled.
