The Z30 is set to initially launch next week in the U.K. and Middle East, along with the rest of the world before the holiday season.
The launch comes as the Canadian smartphone maker continues to ponder a possible sale of the company amid tough competition from fellow smartphone makers like Apple Inc. and Samsung.
