    Priv seems not gonna a budget device. It's price would be around $750 (not decide yet though). Blackphone will be the biggest competitor of this device not samsung lg or motorola.

      I am intrigued and curious about this phone. The camera lens is the same lens used by the LG Viewty and Renoir back in 2008-2009. It did excellent job recording HQ video then so I imagine in 2015 HD it will do great here too! However pictures were pretty washed out and unimpressive back then. The main concern for me is the Blackberry HUB. How will that be implemented into Android? If it even will. Will it work the same as HTC Sense does when you slide to the left? Or the same way Samsung GS6 does when you slide to the left? Would be cool but doubt that kind of productivity that Blackberry is known for will be available for droid. Who knows. Still very intrigued by this phone.

                NarendraModiMadarCho, 06 Oct 2015Why has BlackBerry jumped on the Android bandwagon? Don't t... moreAndroid also happens to be one of the 2 most popular mobile OS platforms out there, alongside iOS, This is a logical and clever move by Blackberry. Nokia (who will be joining the Android family in the near future) and Blackberry have learnt to realise that trying to use their own platforms can only lead to poor sales, when trying to compete with Android and iOS.

                        Why has BlackBerry jumped on the Android bandwagon? Don't they know that it's on of the most insecure OSes of all time? Hahaha.. Android also has the BlackPhone, considered a secured-device. But, as everyone knows, this BlackPhone was rooted when it was shown to the public for the first time.

                          That speaker is over 3 inches wide.

                          Will be a portable stereo.
