New blackberry Android phones - Blackberry Priv

Blackberry Priv

The first smartphone that i have owned was a blackberry, that was back in 2010 where smartphone was something new, at that point of time Nokia rule the mobile phone market. My first blackberry model was a blackberry torch.

Blackberry torch has served me very well and I am really excited to finally be able to use a smartphone with touchscreen capability. During those days everyone was using phone that have keypad. Everyone was either using Nokia, Samsung or Ericson. Nowadays most people are either using Samsung or Apple. Reason being is that the application eco system.

Now blackberry has attempted a final comeback for its blackberry phone which. After many months of rumors and speculation, and an arguably somewhat quiet announcement, we have finally reached the point where it's time to take a look at the Priv by BlackBerry. Unlike every BlackBerry smartphone released before it, the Priv does not use its BlackBerry's proprietary OS and instead comes loaded with Android, Lollipop 5.1.1 to be specific, and pairs it up with the best of BlackBerry security, privacy and productivity.

Up front, there's a 5.43-inch AMOLED Gorilla Glass 4 display that is nice and crisp and delivers a pixel density of 540 PPI. Also on the front of the device to the top left is where you will find the proximity and ambient light sensor and to the right of that, the multi-color pulse notification light as well as the front-facing 2MP camera. In between both is the earpiece speaker that makes use of the BlackBerry Natural Sound system that adapts the sound experience during a call based on how you are holding the Priv. This, combined with three high dynamic range microphones, aims to provide the best voice call quality possible. At the bottom, you'll spot the user-facing speaker grill that has laser-drilled holes to offer great sound output, and they serve the device well. The speaker output is nice and loud, crisp for music and clear for speakerphone calls.

I feel that with this smartphone, blackberry will finally be able to regain market share and hopefully to relieve its past success.
