BlackBerry takes $50/$40 off the DTEK60 and DTEK50

The BlackBerry DTEK60 and DTEK50 have both received a price cut. The former normally retails for $499 but can now be yours for $449 and if you prefer the DTEK50 instead, you’ll be happy to hear that you can now get it for $259, which is $40 off its regular price.
The deal is available in the US as well as in a few other countries. The DTEK60 is currently on sale for $579 ($53 off) in Canada, £442 (£33 off) in the UK, and €513 (€66 off) in mainland Europe. Meanwhile, the less powerful and more affordable DTEK50 goes for $344 ($85 off) in Canada, £255 (£20 off) in the UK and €296 (€43 off) on the old continent.
As a refresher, the BlackBerry DTEK60 has a 5.5-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels. You’ll find Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 820 chipset under the hood along with 4 GB of RAM. There’s 32 GB of storage available, which is expandable up to 256 GB with the help of a microSD card. Other features of the device include a 21 MP camera with an f/2.0 aperture, a selfie snapper that sports an 8 MP sensor, and a 3,000 mAh battery. It ships with Android 6.0 Marshmallow on board.
If you’re in the market for a more affordable mid-range device, the BlackBerry DTEK50 might be more up your alley. It features a 5.2-inch Full HD screen and is powered by the Snapdragon 617 processor. It has 3 GB RAM and comes equipped with a 13 MP primary and an 8 MP secondary camera. The device also has 16 GB of expandable storage, a 2,610 mAh battery, and runs the same version of Android as its bigger brother.
