For one thing, the device has attracted high patronage in the Nigerian ICT markets as a result of major exciting features like larger display, longer battery life among others. Considered to be a major break through for Blackberry after its recent restructuring, the product has also continued to deepen market penetration as a result of its relatively good price.
