                        Got my Priv almost a year now and I must say that the phone is fantastic. The performance is smooth, BB launcher is full of useful features and the slide out keyboard just makes sense to me.

                        Only problems I have is the battery and display. I do get a full day out of it, but the stand by time is terrible. On screen time is good though, can achieve about 5-6 hours depending on tasks but if you leave your phone untouched it will still drain. As for the display, it's suffering on screen burning because of the AMOLED.

                        Overall, performance is good and the phone looks stunning. My Priv always catches the eyes in a big crowd against my friends iPhones and S8's which is also cool.

                        I highly recommend this phone for business use, as the emailing and BlackBerry HUB works like a boss.

                            Hermes Hidayat, 18 May 2017It's 2017 and I bought the Priv(STV100-4) to go alongside my S8 Plus. At first it seems weird... moreGood opinion. How does the email handling compare to that of the S8+ ?. Do you prefer using the Priv for all your emails?

                            Im thinking of having the same setup.

                            Thanks
