The real question is Lumia 950 vs Priv.

Physical keyboard vs Continuum.

not sure if Continuum is worth it. it's just WP on a bigger screen and additional features depend on the dev like the office apps are first party and they really take advantage of the bigger screen by showing menus and shit but not sure if all third party devs would add in extra features to their apps.

I wouldn't rely on Continuum that much.

Pretty much summed up my concerns. If it was x86 I'd buy it in a heartbeat, but as it is, it may not be that useful.

I'll reserve judgement until reviews are out, though.

Is that real fucking ad for the Priv? Blackberry is now on shampoo/cologne tier advertisement.

I hope BB goes bankrupt for forsaking their OS.

/pol/ here.

can't find anything triggering, and I support Blackberry for not giving up on providing solid phones not made in china, and really focused on security.

I'm sure if RMS would even get a Blackberry.

>providing solid phones not made in china

this might not be the case these days, BB has made some agreements with foxconn on hardware production.

I ordered the Priv. Poorfags GTFO.

Honestly, my hype for this phone is on par with Applefags with the iPhone, but that wont stop me from harshly criticizing it once it arrives.

BB has more than just fucking hardware, retards. How else do you think they fucking survived the last eight years without having the sales levels of almost ANY other big OEM? Even if the Priv is a huge financial failure, BB will retreat from hardware and focus solely on security software, something they've been doing all this time for other companies. They'll probably continue pushing updates for a year or so with the Priv and maybe the BB10 phones.

One more reason to buy :^)

BlackBerry won't die anytime soon. The handset division might, but the company itself will be fine.

>>51264295
I'll think about it when they release a relevant version (e.g. a model running BlackBerry 10 OS

They made it impossible to root and the bootloader will never be unlocked.
BB is dead.

>They made it impossible to root and the bootloader will never be unlocked
Of course. This is a phone with security in mind, not muh custom ROMs
>>
>>51264295
is it comfortable to type when you have 25 inches of screen leaning against your hands as you try to use the keyboard?
>>
>>51264310
>>51264310
Why is everyone so clueless about blackberry? There hardware division is a small basically insignificant part of their company. They make their money in security software with businesses and have thousands of patents. And iirc about 3billion in cash reserves.
If anything the priv is a vanity project
>>
>>51266234
I understand why they did it, but I think they should have two different models.
Enterprise and Consumer.

People like me wouldn't buy it unless I can put xposed on it.

Surely getting this

Go Bleckberi! tbн faм

any of you guys rocking the passport? thinking of getting one is the priv bumps the price of it down

>>51266255
Do you really think they haven't thought of this and designed the phone accordingly?

>>51266281
Let's be honest here, companies don't give a shit about people like you. Actually they'd prefer if the custom rom and root community would die off.
>>
>>51266257
Cash reserves don't last forever
>>
>>51266912

they are not losing money if you add up the profits from the software and patents which is the reason they can still shit out phones. the majority of the cars on the road run infotainment systems on top of QNX software.
>>
>>51266706
If they added even just the things you get from gravitybox and dpi settings to stock roms I think a huge proportion wouldn't even root any more
