Since February the production for BlackBerry 10 devices has been increasing steadily says StreetInsider, also knowing there will be more new BlackBerry 10 devices by the end of this year.
A 5″ inch BlackBerry Z10-like device on its way as well to be included in that bunch in a year end launch? What do you all think about this?
Jefferies analyst Peter Misek:
The build plans have steadily been increased since February,” Misek notes. “Our Asia checks indicate that the builds have recently increased from 2M/month to 2M+. This lends us confidence to our above-consensus May Q (Jef $4.1B/$0.50 vs. St $3.4B/$0.03) and Aug Q (Jef $3.9B/$0.37 vs. St $3.3B/$0.11).
Misek also said checks confirm that 2-3 additional BB10 models are likely to launch before year end: A mid-range (i.e., ~$400) keyboard, a mid-range touch, and a 5″ Z10-like device (slated for year end launch). He notes these models are not in their estimates at this time. via StreetInsider
