Blackberry Tour : Verizon or Sprint?

The BlackBerry Tour 9630 is the newest BlackBerry device on the market and it’s provided by two cell phone companies, Sprint and Verizon. The prices are different, so which company should you go with?

Through Sprint the Tour is $149.99 ($199 if you buy it through Sprint instead of us), but through Verizon, the Tour is $49.99 ($199.99 if you buy it though Verizon instead of us). So it looks like the obvious choice is to buy the Verizon version of the Blackberry Tour, but not so fast.

The Sprint plan is less expensive and more straight-forward than the comparable Verizon plan for the phone. The Sprint plan is $69.99 and the details are below:

Sprint Everything Data 450
450 Anytime Minutes
Unlimited Data (Email, Web Surfing, Sprint Music Premier, Sprint TV Premier, & GPS Navigation)
Unlimited Messaging (Picture, Text, & Video)
Unlimited Mobile to Mobile Minutes
Unlimited Night and Weekend Minutes Starting at 7PM
Unlimited Direct Connect and Group Connect
Nationwide Long Distance and No Roaming Charges

The comparable plan from Verizon is $79.99 + $5 for 250 messages a month and the GPS service is $9.99 a month. If you want to use your phone as a modem it’s ANOTHER $15 a month for a total of $109.98.

So Sprint’s phone is $149.99 and the service is $69.99. 24 months at $69.99 a month = $1679.76 plus the price of the phone gives you a total 2 year cost of $1829.75.

Verizon’s phone is $49.99 and the service is $109.98. 24 months at $109.98 a month = $2639.52 plus the price of the phone gives you a total 2 year cost of $2689.51.

This is a pretty dramatic difference for the same phone. There are also benefits from Sprint that you don’t get with Verizon like no fee for roaming and unlimited text messaging.

Sprint is $1829.75 and Verizon is $2689.51 so the choice is easy.
