    AnonD-549730, 21 Sep 2017I would love to buy this phone. Can anybody please tell me a detailed review about this phone.... moreThis phone is what it is. no other way to put it. it's getting a bit old technology wise. that's not to say it's slow, but don't expect this to keep up with a current flagship in any way shape or form.

    Good screen, good speakers, good software (it's extremely aggressive about questionable apps)

    Decent battery, feel in the hands when NOT opened up.

    charging is below average, the wireless charging is complete cattle droppings (likes to stop charging and drains the batter ON the wireless charger), rear camera is middle of the road and the front camera is pretty sad.

    when the keyboard is open it's a impossible to keep this thing in your hands without cramping up so bad you drop it. it also feels very fragile. If I had to choose between this and the dtek 60 I'd have chosen the dtek.

                            Vishal, 04 Sep 2017Overheating issue in india as i am using blackberry priv at &t. Totally wastage of money. ... moreDear Vishal,
                            I am quoting you -
                            "Overheating issue, Totally wastage of money, the other stuff is really really bad, the battery life is about 2 hours of regular use on 4g"
                            Are we talking about the same device? battery - 2 hours?!!!
                            Well, I wonder. See my review from today.
                            Thanks

                              I use PRIV for over a year and a half. Beyond all doubt - this is the most favorite smartphone of any smartphone I have ever had.
                              I did not have unpleasant experiences with battery, heating, and so on. The beauty, the solidity, the speed of response, the usability - all make this smartphone great.
                              And there's also an important bonus - since I've been using it, I've had no desire to change to a new device every six months / year - the device delivers all of my needs with exceptional efficiency.
                              And a last personal detail - strange as it was, as time passes, more and more like this device.

                                      Everything is good like design, curved screen, physical capacitive keyboard etc. But the bad thing is battery, draining fast, heating up while charging or video watching or playing games.
