Verizon BlackBerry Torch 9850 launch date leaked
By Vlad Bobleanta on 31 Aug 11Verizon is going to launch the BlackBerry Torch 9850 soon, that much we already know. But when? Well, thanks to a leaked screengrab of a Verizon internal system, we now know.
The BlackBerry Torch 9850 is the CDMA version of the successor to the failed Storm series. The Torch 9850, like its GSM-based brother, the 9860, is a smartphone that comes without a physical QWERTY keyboard. Its main feature is probably the 3.7-inch touchscreen.
Verizon is set to start selling the BlackBerry Torch 9850 on September 8 via Direct Fulfillment (read:Web and phone sales), and the phone will be in Big Red’s stores on September 15, so one week later.
The touchscreen that the Torch 9850 comes with has a resolution of 480×800, and the phone also comes with a 1.2 GHz processor, 768 MB of RAM, a 5-megapixel camera with 720p HD video capture, and 4 GB of built-in storage. It will run the new BlackBerry OS 7.
No word yet on Verizon’s pricing for this device, but we’ll let you know as soon as we find out.
