      After many years I decided to go back to blackberry after reading the priv reviews. I am not disappointed.

      Great phone with all the android functions and the blackberry ease of use I have missed. Sure it's not perfect but neither were my Samsung galaxy s7 edge or my Sony Xperia x.

      I wish more people would try it.

        Visited the nearby shop to buy something. Anyway I noticed the Priv. Taken a demo. Build quality is very responsive. The back feels really good. Also the screen is colorful. It was fast and responsive, means programs are opening fast and hoping between tasks is really easy. No lag. Last but not least the Keyboard is really really awesome. Typing is really breeze. Overall love the device. Passport looks too big, but Priv is looks beautiful and feels awesome.

              it great phone, even up to in 2016 it still a great phones, every where i go this phones turns heads. love it, thought i do not think that this is the most secure phone in the world but we thank blackberry for trying. I still use it an we want from blackberry a Priv 2, not that Alcatel look alike phone. We want a better improved version of the Priv. And also the front facing camera is a JOKE!

                      sp!k!ri, 06 Dec 2016I love the physical keyboard and can't live without it, that's I love blackberry so muchAlthough i use, touch screens i cant live without a Blackberry phone. I am a big fan of the physical keyboard which helps me alot with my emails, yesting and whatsapp. Sadly, they have decided to discontinue the old phones so now i needed to get the priv which i will do in couple of days.

                          phone is nice, unfortunately idea of using it`s software is crap. Why I can not longer apply a sound to text message (so i will know who text me without looking at the screen?) or uploading my own ringtones ? and not be able to find them on my phone or use individual ringtone to one person? This phone does not like mp3 to use as a ring tone. WHY ??? Supposed to be better and easier to use but it`s not. I do love (or as i should say) used to love BB. Not this time. No wonder they going to stop produce them

                                  I have had a lot of phones for Business and personal, the Priv. is by far the best phone I have had. It is about time everyone stopped being sheep and only follow the big two manufacturers and looked at what is really available out there.

                                        Great phone, But too bulky and heavy hard to put into pocket, same phone in much smaller size would be a killer. also if it would take 2 sim cards.
