Although BlackBerry previously announced the Q5 smartphone would arrive in the UK sometime in mid-July, it appears that some retailers in the country will be able to bring the device much earlier than expected.

CrackBerry reports that Clove UK confirmed BlackBerry Q5 is now expected to arrive in stock on July 1. In addition, the retailer priced the smartphone a bit cheaper than the original £349.98 ($544 / €410) outright price.

Starting today, customers can pre-order the BlackBerry Q5 via Clove for only £330 VAT included, which is about €385 or $515. Check it out here.

We reported earlier today that BlackBerry Q5 will be launched in the UAE first, tomorrow, June 20. However, only a limited number of units will be available for purchase in celebration of the new BlackBerry Store opening in Dubai Mall.
