    BlueStone, 09 Jul 2016This Last week, it has been appearing that message, I don&... moreBlackBerry 10 OS is very good from my experience of using android and iOS. IOS is better version of android. The best thing of BlackBerry 10 is BlackBerry Hub that can gather all the notification. You will not miss even single one emails, messages, WhatsApp etc and you can track it back 2) contact - you will automatically merge the contact together, android, you have to do it manually 3) Calendar - BlackBerry 10 will notifify you promptly and will silent the device automatically during meetings not like android and iOS. 4) system will not crash like android 5) virus protection, seems that, BlackBerry 10 cannot being attack by virus like android. 6) The fastest email ever when tested with i5 laptop, Iphone and android phone. Do hope that, BlackBerry will be persistently being used.
    I like BlackBerry 10 very much based on all the advantages listed but why most apps doesn't support BlackBerry 10

      for those wants to buy this device, I've using this device for 3month+ .. so far it has been GREAT.. well? things that I love from this device is the almost pure nexus like experienc just disable the hub and the performance has been consistently fast.. definelty a + for the performance and UI... rear camera has been solid, it has "good" lowlight capability that outperform the 6s's... aand it got WB,AF,EXP/ISO,shut spd manual mode .. it is only shame for those that takes a lot of selfie, would be dissapoint.... speaker is not the loudest ,, but its front facing!! its a different story for the headphones ,it is one of the best sounding on a smartphone... for you that doesnt mind a fingerprint scanner/mediocre front face cam.. I would recommend this phone, since the price is 400$ right now!!!!longlife blackberry

          Reuben,
          Just to clarify, Priv will be able to use whatsapp, because it runs on true Android OS, not a sideloaded version, that the OS 10 used to access android apps
          If you read the whole of the review that whatsapp sends you, it explains it all.
          Hope this helps. (I currently have a Z10, and am looking at having to move as well!! Would prefer to stay with BB too)

                        To reduce heating and save battery life do the following:

                        1) Turn off "Location" in "Settings". If you keep it on, then your phone will be continuously updating your location with Google. This means continuous battery strain, cpu usage "heating issues", and data usage. http://www.cnet.com/how-to/how-to-delete-and-disable-your-google-location-history/

                        2) Next, go to "Settings -> Battery" to see which apps are draining your phone the most. Some apps like to have a continuous sync or have constant push updates. This isn't a bad thing but know that it will eat up more battery life and, depending on the the frequency, may keep your cpu usage high. If you can limit the number of constant updates to manual or important/certain pushes, the better. Different apps will go about this in different ways but it is usually under their settings.

                                Quite simply the best phone out there. My wife has an IPhone 6s and even she was disappointed. I've had Sony xperia Z1 and it was brilliant. Almost bought the Z5 premium but wasn't convinced. This BBPriv has blown me. Usability is amazing and play...well it is an Android so...best of both worlds I guess!
