RIM Shares surged amidst launch of Blackberry 10
The Blackberry phones might have lost its direction and popularity in Malaysia in the midst of Android and iOS devices drowning the market but according to a tech website ibnlive, Research In Motion shares has risen dramatically to as high as 11 per cent on Monday as the date of the launch for the Blackberry 10 smartphones comes to a close on January 30.
RIM stock surged as high as C$15.08 as consumers gain more confidence to the new RIM phones. The surge was also influenced by news that two prominent carriers Aicel and Vodafone are planning to market the new Blackberry device to India, especially when sales in North America and Europe declined.
RIM’s new Blackberry devices is reported to be competitive with smartphones offered by Samsung, Apple, Nokia and other rivals.
I have always like the Blackberry phones especially the QWERTY models because of the relatively easy texting that it has to offer and of course the durability. Hopefully one these days, I would be able to own one.
