Worst phone ever

[ALToronto]

Love my Priv. Yes, the phone's app takes a bit of getting used to, but hardly a deal breaker. And there is an internal photo gallery - you need to look in the app drawer to find it.

BlackBerry's share of the phone market doesn't include its Android phones, so the article is misleading.

The Priv is not for everyone - if you had and enjoyed the Torch slider back in the day, you'll really love this phone. If you're used to glass slabs, it probably isn't for you.

That would refer to bb10 OS. Android market includes all manufacturers which now includes BlackBerry mobile.

Thought it would be cool especially being android. Thought wrong.

Constantly getting hung up, slow, every other phone call I make the other person Can't hear me, have to delete then re enter my exchange mail info every so often, overheating.

Just terrible.

Mine was like that. Got a new one under warranty. Totally different experience. Your phone is defective.

If not under warranty do a complete factory reset.

I've had my Priv since launch almost year and half ago and while sure the first few updates had their bugs, the past year tho I have had no issues that a quick reboot won't fix.. besides it getting up to 41 degrees Celsius when I play games, but from reading other forums that's normal... but as long as I have a case on I can't feel it (BlackBerry went with too soft a back material that doesn't absorb heat as well imo)

Nobody ever complains of not hearing me, I replaced stock google sms app with yaata because it works better, signal is great now that I switch carriers, battery is great..

I guess my only real complaint with the phone is that the back doesn't feel premium enough to take the heat when I play games or use GPS.. I don't think it's getting hotter then it should so if there was Priv 2 I would hope they address that..

But I don't have enough competition phone's to compare... would you be willing to download an app like OS Monitor and play a game like Animation Throwdown for a bit to see how hot Samsung gets after playing a while
