A unique old partner of life. Really not a flagship but à daily phone of 2015, 2016, 2017 .... After this is more complicated. Software update is missing, hardware cpu run just To much hot and drain the battery. Performance are missing but for email, web, call, and video the screen is beauty.
- Great screen
- Unique desing
- Great Software but...
- ... Update missing
- Battery life
- Bad cpu performance
The phone just can't compete hardware-wise with the likes of the Pixel, iPhone 7 or Galaxy S7 but that's only natural, it's a 15 months old device now. Anyone who expects a last year flagship to compete with the current gen ones is a fool. But it can compete in design (blows everyone away except maybe de S7 Edge, both are gorgeous phones) and productivity. The physical keyboard is something no other bran offers, and it's prety good. Also, in everyday life you won't notice any lag and it will perform just as you would expect, but it will get warm pretty fast if you're doing games or updating lots of apps at the same time. The front camera is meh, but the rear facing it's amazing

In my opinion there is no other smartphone other than BB10 which could match the productivity of the Priv for emails and business. If you are looking for a serious performer to stay connected out of the office, look no further.
Seriously underrated phone, especially after Android Marshmallow upgrade. It really deserves a better rating, and much better sales volumes.
Few people even know that Blackberry made an Android phone, nevermind how good it is. I highly recommend it.
- Superb Everyday Use
- Great Battery
- Fantastic Screen with curved edges
- Blackberry Hub
- Encrypted for Full Security
- Camera is very good
- No other Android phone offers a physical keyboard
- Build-quality could have been a little better
- Difficult to find covers and accessories outside USA and Canada
