Unveiled back in February at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2014 trade fair, BlackBerry Z3 is about to make its debut in Indonesia.

Although BlackBerry has promised that the smartphone will be available for purchase beginning this month, it looks like no carrier or retailer is currently taking pre-orders for the Z3 in Indonesia.

However, CrackBerry reports that at least one Indonesian online retailer will begin taking pre-orders for BlackBerry Z3 on April 28. Elevenia will offer customers the possibility to pre-order the Z3 for only Rp. 1,650,000 ($140 / €100).

Customers will be able to pre-purchase the smartphone for such a low amount for a limited time, after which the Z3 will sell for the full price of Rp. 2,200,000 ($190 / €140). The promotion will end on May 12, so if you want to grab the Z3 for a lower price, this is the time limit.

According to the Indonesian retailer, BlackBerry Z3 shipments to all those who pre-order the smartphone will start on May 15, but it may take one or more days to reach customers.

BlackBerry Z3 will only be launched in Indonesia initially, but the Canadian company has promised that if sales are satisfactory, it will introduce the smartphone to other countries as well. Stay tuned for more on this.
