5. Not only does it have
all of the Google™
Play Store apps at its
disposal… but the
extra features built
into Android™ are
genuinely innovative.

7. It’s interesting, it’s different
and the curved edges to the
display feel lovely.

8. ”
My favorite thing is that the screen
slides up to reveal this keyboard
beneath. The phone moves.
It transforms, and it’s snappy!

What I like most about
PRIV is its software
enhancements: namely,
the Productivity Tab,
keyboard shortcuts,
security and, of course,
the BlackBerry® Hub.

performer with
good looks, unique
and robust features
and a great camera.

12. Without question PRIV
is one of the best devices
BlackBerry has ever built.
It’s a responsive, above-
average Android phone
with BlackBerry DNA
and great battery life.

In an age when all
phones effectively
use the same candy
bar conventions, it’s
refreshing to see
something different.
