You are right The Prive is AWESOME.

It is a good device. Though navigation through android is definitely behind bb10, it is nice having access to all the apps.

Please share your thoughts.

Try this app. You can get close to blackberry 10 experience with it

Glad to see some Priv love ! I don't stop into android central often, but with Marshmallow coming and possibly a couple more devices on the Horizon things are about to heat up

Heh... heat up. Just like my Priv when it was redownloading and resyncing the Hub.

Big time Blackberry lover. Have a Passport, Classic, Leap, Z10, and a Curve. Want to go for the Priv too. Hopefully, ShopBlackberry will offer a coupon code with the device to get it around $550.
Also looking at the Sony Xperia X Performance smartphone too. Very nice looking device as well.

It is such a nice phone. I tried to sell a few people on Priv but it's amazing how afraid people see to get BB now a day. My son wants one but it is out of his price range. Maybe in the summer when he gets co-op, he can get one.

he can always check for a used one.....crackberry.com marketplace usually has them up for sale...unlocked and for a few hundred less then new.

If you can deal with needing an AT&T SIM to update the phone, $449: New Unlocked BlackBerry PRIV (AT&T Branded) GSM Slider Android Smartph – Daily Steals

Yes it is!

I think someone posted that New Egg has it even cheaper. But still the AT&T dependency.

Just put my TMobile v10 aside for the Priv and have made it my primary device for now. I am very pleased with wireless charging, keyboard, hardware, battery so far. The front facing camera is not as nice as the v10. No doubt. But I should be taking fewer selfies anyway (isn't 1 too many?). The big disappointment so far is that my company doesn't support enterprise activation or Good on ANY Android platform. Arggh. So I still need two devices for now....

It's your company then... I'm using Good Work just fine on mine.

Good For Enterprise or Work?

Nothing like the 9800 much more stable with most weight at the bottom

Yes, only the screen slides up, and the screen is very light. It's surprisingly pleasant to use in that mode. All in all, Blackberry did a really good job with ergonomics in this phone.

Best of both worlds, BlackBerry and Android. I'm just mad it took so long for this to happen. But I'm enjoying my device and can't wait for Android M mainly for the battery life improvements.

I haven't noticed battery improvements. The phone is faster, though.

Two weeks with my new Priv- first Android device and the transition has been relatively smooth, especially with the BB enhancements. Love the phone.

Thank you for suggesting that app
