VODAFONE LAUNCHES BLACKBERRY Z10 IN GHANA

As part of efforts to prove its leadership in innovation in the country, Vodafone Ghana Limited on Tuesday launched the Blackberry Z10 in Accra, a week after its global launch.

Customers of Vodafone would, therefore, be the first to own the latest handset which has created consumer frenzy all over the world, along with 1.5 GB of data.

The new Blackberry Z10 is a complete re-design from the traditional ‘BB’ and introduces new user friendly features.

For the first time, users will not have to subscribe to the Blackberry service before experiencing the full capabilities of the handset.

The Blackberry Messenger service has also been revamped with added features such as video calling and screen share which allows users to share their handset screen and camera view with their friends.

Another innovative feature is the ‘Blackberry Hub’, where users can customise their handsets so their favourite applications are on one page. The enhanced security features also make the phone an invaluable business tool.

Addressing the media at the launch in Accra, the Chief Marketing Officer at Vodafone, Mr Uche Ofodile, said Vodafone was committed to bringing the most innovative devices to their customers.

“We know our customers are driven by innovation and like to set the pace for others to follow. They expected Vodafone to be the first to deliver one of the most sought after handsets in the world and we have not disappointed,” he said.

He said customers could pre-order the new Blackberry Z10, which was available exclusively on the Vodafone network .
