Blackberry Priv Release Date Nov 06: Pre-Orders Started In U.S., U.K. And Canada
Blackberry Priv released date has been finally confirmed as November 06, 2015. Blackberry brings the latest premium offering to Android and Blackberry lovers the new Blackberry Priv smartphone with Android software. However, it is yet not confirmed whether the new Blackberry Priv will have the latest Android Marshmallow 6.0 or existing Android Lollipop OS.
Hardware and software had never been BlackBerry's problem and the company excelled at both for a good many years. However, BlackBerry had always fallen short in applications and content.
Since privacy and security remained one of the biggest lacunas for Android phones, the new Blackberry Priv offers the best of both the worlds, stated Know Your Mobile.
Pre-orders have already started in the US, UK and Canada. The US pre-orders are available at a non-contract price of $699 and all pre-ordered phones will be shipped the same day with the official release, revealed The USB Port.
The new Blackberry Priv provides all features of available Android smartphones with added security of Blackberry. Priv stands for Privileges and Privacy.
In order to secure the PRIV and its future devices which will be running on Android, BlackBerry has implemented its Hardware Root of Trust, which lays the foundations for security by embedding every device' hardware with unique cryptographic keys, said Huewire.
The specs include an 18MP dual flash Schneider-Kreuznach camera as compared to earlier projected 21MP camera that was primarily expected.
The new smartphone with QWERTY slider keyboard flaunts a 5.4-inch dual-curved screen with 32GB of internal capacity, 3GB of RAM and a 3410mAh battery offering up to 22.5 hours of energy.
All that powered by a Dual-core 1.8 GHz Cortex-A57 & quad-core 1.44 GHz Cortex-A53 processor with a Qualcomm MSM8992 Snapdragon 808 chipset.
The new Blackberry Priv with all features of Android phones and Blackberry security promises to be one of the most sizzling launches in the world of mobile phones and latest cellular technologies.
It may be the last chance for Blackberry as the company had been struggling financially for years, falling behind major cell phone manufacturers and losing customers, said iDigitalTimes.
