Canada has a Gem Here
I have written this review with the amazing phone mentioned above. I witness many phone users around my daily life who run out of battery and complain that they have to charge their phone again. I never have that problem because the battery lasts two days with light use and one and a half with normal use. Plus the included quick charging feature means this phone has very little downtime. I can't believe so many more people don't realize what an amazing phone the Blackberry Priv is!Read full review...

Unresolved heating issues
Tried all the suggested fixes, but the phone is still too hot just doing normal surfing with chrome on wifi with no other apps downloaded, sync off, etc. It's amazingly beautiful though. I didn't like the launcher either. Standby or idle battery life was spectacular. I think it could be a good phone to battle phone addiction, but don't expect to be a power user without burning your hands offRead full review...

Great Phone! Everything A Business Person Wants + Android Toys + Marshmallow
Love the phone. Camera is amazing! Critics about battery life and overheating was NOT an issue with mine even after playing intensive games like MK X. Also, upgrading to Marshmallow was easy after a quick search through Crackberry so don't worry about being stuck with AT&T Lollipop just because you're Canadian or have a SIM that's not AT&T. Overall, fast phone, great screen, keyboard is innovative, the best of BB10 plus Android features. OK Google was a plus and Casting Screen compatibility through ROKU and CHROMECAST made me giddy! Glad BB kept the keyboard trackpad.
One little feature I miss: Blackberry Blend. But oh well. I'm on the road almost all the time so not going to miss it too muchRead full review...

Most Innovative Phone
Sure, you can get a Samsung or Iphone for $7-800 and they have good features. However, this is a great phone with a really big screen, all the great features and one thing nobody else has...a slide-out full keyboard! I got it for that reason and it was half the price of the others. That said, the touch screen works so well, I don't even use the keyboard.
I didn't give it stars because I just can't hardly find accessories for it. The few that I do find are expensive. You can find numerous protective cases for the other phones till your head spins. Not so for this one. I ended up just ordering a huge, universal, padded case so I won't break it. I did find a light weight fitted cover for it, but it isn't very substantial.Read full review...

Blackberry came to their senses.
The keyboard is tactile and the typing suggestion system is great once you are used to it. Ive never been able to type so quickly before and there is something satisfying about physically moving the phone to answer calls. I have been using android phones since the first galaxy note came out and ive owned samsung HTC and OnePlus phones that have all revealed some fatal flaw (battery life, crashing, etc.) within the first few weeks. the only complaint i have about the priv is the non removable battery. The carbon fiber backing just might be worth that though :)Read full review...

Best Smartphone

Definitely the best smartphone available in the market. Features especially stand out:
• Physical keyboard: If you do a lot of typing - emails, social media, texting, etc., this phone is a must. The keyboard shortcut (it’s programmable) and keyboard gestures are additional very handy features that makes text editing very productive on Priv.
• The Hub feature is very efficient bringing essentials in one place, very well organizedl
• Camera (18 MP) is also the best - much better in low light condition than the iPhone 6S.
Highly recommended!Read full review...

The Pinnacle of Blackberry Handset Technology
I love this phone. This is the last great handset that Blackberry will produce. They have announced that they will cease making cell phones and concentrate on their software & security divisions. It is a pity. It is one of the last cell phones with a physical keyboard & I will hold on to it as long as possible. I am not a fan of touch screen keyboards. Blackberry produced one more phone after this one called the, "DTEK 50". It is a lesser version of this phone with no physical keyboard. I am sure sales are abysmal. Who wants a Blackberry without a physical keyboard? Blackberry should have made a cheaper version of this phone with a physical keyboard. The change to an Android operating system was a step in the right direction.Read full review...

BlackBerry Priv - Great battery life, Excellent display, top notch security and a slide out keyboard!
I love this phone. After using BB10 for almost 4 years I was afraid of switching to Android because of all of my friends horror stories with glitches, lag, poor battery life and even cell reception. The Priv has NONE of those issues! Battery can easily last 2 days, maybe three if I stretch it. The Priv feels quite fluid and productive, much more so than any other Android phone ive experienced. The HUB is a nice feature, it unifies all your messages into one place, no more wasting time switching between apps! The keyboard is awesome! Very seldom do I use the onscreen keyboard. BlackBerry provides monthly updates for this phone, even beating out the speed Google gets out their updates. Highly recommendedRead full review...

Wonderfully different!
It's an awesome phone and there's absolutely nothing on the market like it. I'm all about being different and this is different something unique compared to today's standard phones. Only issue I'm having is this phone gets hot to the touch on the back. I've spoken wit blackberry and they are aware of the problem but say that the 6.0 update helps reduce if not fully eliminate the issue.Read full review...

Love it
Great camera, lovely screen, good performance and all the advantages of the Google services and apps. and the neat sliding physical keyboard! I've owned iPhones, bb10 and other android phones but PRIV is my new all time favorite. The upgrade to marshmallow was nice and made the good battery life even better. I'm expecting that BlackBerry will bring a software upgrade path to their android phones that is kind of spotty under that eco system. Couldn't be happier.Read full review...
