  • Gorgeous vivid display, Fantastic keyboard (both onscreen and physical), Camera performs well in lowlight, BB Hub and DTEK, Cool widget shortcuts
  • Price, No fingerprint sensor, Heating issues, Better smartphone camera options out there
  • The BlackBerry Priv has a great display, cool UI tweaks and the keyboard is to die for. But the lack of a fingerprint sensor, average camera performance and the price will make you reconsider your options before investing.BlackBerry Priv: Detailed ReviewT...

  • Good, Physical keyboard, Vast Android app ecosystem, Fantastic materials and construction, Good screen
  • Extremely expensive, Weak front camera, Slightly unwieldy, Lacks many current-day features
  • Will long-time BlackBerry users be happy transitioning to Android, or will they lose what they cherish most? That's the unfortunate question that anyone still clinging to their Bold or Curve will have to answer for themselves. The Priv isn't quite the sin...

  • So is the Priv the long-overdue messiah BlackBerry so desperately needs to regain some ground in the mobile realm? Well, sadly, there is no easy answer. While the Priv is a nice device on its own, but its nature, purpose, and target audience and its posit...
