have you updated your OS? because I noticed that was an issue before. its either that or you need to have it replaced by the manufacturer. I experienced the same thing but after being provided a replacement, everything was perfect. it would help to buy a fast charger by the way. my phone charges from 15% to 100 in 1hr 40 mins.

You also need to change the settings of your phone, so it doesnt drain your battery too much. Coming from a samsung s7 though, id say that S7 does have better battery life and its snappier but it still doesnt beat the magnificent design of bb priv. No regrets on buying this one.

It's a great device, I've been using it for about 6 months now. It had a few hiccups (like overheating and battery problems) but it's all sorted. I definitely recommend it.

I am using an S7 now but wanting to buy this priv. S7 is superb when it comes to its features.
Ive heard about some negatve about this priv but I really love blackberry. I I used to have a passport but had a hard time using some apps (wish it was android) i love the keyone but it only has a midrange specs and im sure will be expensive than priv.
Is it really worth it changing from s7 to priv?

Yashu, 07 Mar 2017Can I buy priv and is worth the buy now Changing my phone was completely worth it, i bought my priv brand new for like 320usd. Id say totally worth it, holding the phone gives off the impression that you got your moneys worth. Just be patient with it at the start, specially at initial set up, from my experience it lagged but after all the updates and upgrade to marshmallow 6.0.1 it was fast and never crashed, the battery is not as good as the s7 though, i mostly use it for web surfing and games and it only last for like 8-9 hrs before reaching20%, s7 last for 10-12 hrs before it reaches 20%. Its quick charge though so im good.

Though it gets hot when multitasking moreover when browsing. For apps crashing haven't seen that issue at all till now. Camera is subpar that's true. But overall it's nice phone can't deny it.

I've played with one plus 3, i've owned an lg g flex 2 with more powerfull SD 810 and before that i've used cyanogenmod 11 to 14.1, which belive me, can get faster than anything with android on it on much lower specs than the priv. PRIV is not that slow. Mine opens apps (not games, games load significantly slower) as fast as or sometimes 0.5 of a second faster or slower than other flagships (i actually compared it with an S7). The only problem that i see with it is the slow read/write speeds. Again you should upgrade to 6.0.1 if you haven't already or you should go to the doctor and check if you are ok. Maybe you have something in your system that doesn't let you to properly use a phone.
Just my honest opinion!

Have priv for 5months or so.. Bought it as price was low and I like how it looks..I love how it looks..but..
What a disaster phone spec wise, its not slow, its a snail lol.. honestly slowest phone I ever used by mile.. everything lags, crashes, one day this other day that, doesn't work this, doesn't work that lol. keeping as my work phone as I barely use it, no way it could be my day to day use phone, I probably end up killing my self lol..
Don't even ask about battery as its just embarrassing......
Wtf blackberry was thinking, my brains can't understand...
Atleast few years behind spec wise.
9 points for how it looks, -10000000 points for everything else!
To describe it in a few words- cheap dog shitt!
If anyone saying its a good phone, then you should go and see a doctor, as I'm concerned about your health lol
Just my honest opinion!

Just got my bb priv, it was slow af out of the box. Then I experienced the "saved" wifi network issue after the marshmallow update. After restarting my fiber optics box, it started working again and it is a magnificent beast. Im telling you its hella fast, i transfered from a samsung s7 cause it keeps disconnecting from any wifi signal, Stating "connected, no internet" and this thing was on sale. Its a beast, its not at par with the snappiness of s7 though, id say its equal to a 6month old iphone 6s performance wise. Its fast and doesnt lag. The battery doesnt last as long as s7,which is a nother bad point but i like its solid build quality and style. Its fast charging anyway so im good with it
