BlackBerry has just announced that their latest smartphone, the PRIV is available for pre-order in Canada, the United States, and UK. Built on BlackBerry’s legacy of securing and keeping private our customers’ data, PRIV brings the best of BlackBerry’s security, privacy and productivity to the Android ecosystem.
The device offers unique tools and features – like DTEK which is their exclusive warning system app that lets you know when your privacy could be at risk so you can take action to improve it, as well as an elegant, slim design with a slide-out physical keyboard, 5.4-inch dual-curved screen and a powerful 18MP camera. And of course, access to the Google Play store to easily download all the apps you want.
PRIV will be the solution for smartphone users who are learning daily of the lack of privacy they have on their current devices. PRIV will be the answer for former BlackBerry users who miss the physical keyboard but want more apps. And we’re responding to current – and prospective – BlackBerry users who need it all: choice, innovation, security, privacy and productivity.
Customers in Canada, United States, and UK can pre-order PRIV from ShopBlackBerry.com. PRIV will be priced at $699 USD in the US, $899 CDN in Canada and £559 incl. VAT in the UK. Learn more via the Inside BlackBerry blog as well.
UPDATE: John Chen had these comments:
BlackBerry is the most trusted maker of secure hardware and software in the world today. World leaders, government agencies and the biggest businesses depend on us. I committed that we would release an Android phone only if we could make it secure – today is that day. I’m proud to announce the world’s first BlackBerry smartphone powered by Android built to Protect Your Privacy, available for pre-order today.
