    He was asking for advice about the Blackberry Priv with Marshmallow (6.0), and the answer you gave him shows that you have never had or used a Blackberry Priv, as its an Android phone, and the Blackberry apps you're referring to don't matter to an Android user. You were giving an opinion on a BBOS 10 phone, if you might have had one of those, or maybe a cheaper and much older phone?

        I'm using Passport and Classic at the moment and thinking of buying Priv to replace Classic. I like physicall keyboard but I like touchscreen keyboard too. Wonder what is the reason Priv has both? One for SMS other for mails? Or touchscreen keyboard for short messages, physicall keyboard for writing stories? Can't find the right reason. For me Priv could be without physicall keyboard (and with better battery). What do you think?

You should remember its 808 processor but thanks to Marshmallow its very smooth and its not getting hot. The feature of this phone is not processor but it has so many tricks and utility that no other phone has. Only drawback it has is front 2 mp camera. Even that is good in decent light but when its dark it messes up. I am completely happy with my decision.

                        After Marshmallow update, heating is resolved. Heavy gaming is warming it up but not hot anymore (it's normal and it even happens with latest processors). Battery is fantastic now, can easily get through a day of heavy use. All glitches are resolved. Now I believe they are releasing further updates for fine tuning..

                              Be different to all the other followers , get a Priv by far the best phone our business has got, blows our iPhone 6 s and Samsung s6 out of the water, awesome camera loads of memory and like always the best communication phone for business by a country mile .

                                If you love security you will know that this phone gets updated faster than any Other Android phone. Day one security patches and constant updates from Blackberry have made this phone a beast. Since phone is now on Marshmallow its battery life is lasting even longer. Camera on the Priv is amazing. Blackberry really went all out when they chose schneider kreuznach. They have a long history going back over 100 years making some of the best lenses in the world.

I have a feeling the negative posters on here are short sellers. Nothing to do with the most secure Android phone which Blackberry built.
