BlackBerry begins accepting Priv pre-orders in US, UK, and Canada

24 October, 2015
The device carries a price tag of $699, £559, and $899, respectively, in these countries.

Sort by:

To me £399 seems quite reasonable if they really wanted good sales. For £550 I can get G4+Passport brand new.

                I'm still wondering why bb has never made a dual sim phone or if they do not know that dual sims are another reasonable, forward-thinking way to present their phones even this priv

                                  There are those of us who really loathe virtual keyboards and will be happy to have this as an option. Apart from quicker, more accurate typing, a physical keyboard adds one more benefit: no virtual keyboard taking up screen space.

                                      For a dying company to sell a $699 phone, only because it has a physical keyboard in this age of virtual keyboards? Interesting. Good luck to RIM.
