If blackberry would have pushed their OS to get apps during the time apple was doing the same, it would have been apple vs blackberry right now not apple vs android and a lot of us would have been happier for it.
@@timiYESno custom rom available on any bb device running on android since bb does not allow unlocking the bootloader. You just stuck with whatever last version of android that blackberry provided on that device.
Never had 1 but wanted 1 had the keyone and that was a great fone i really miss physical keyboards just why can't we get them now really wish blackberry came back
also they sold 2yrs old chip with flagship prices when they try to catch up using android software. they shouldve done what oneplus done before. flagship specs for cheap
Brother this is vintage retro model. Only collectors have it. Either you will get at very high price or you have to ship from USA or UK. Not possible to find locally in your state or in India. Thanks!
@RetroVintageMobileCollector If Blackberry ever decided to make a comeback making phones with the keyboard. I would sell my Samsung galaxy fold 3 in a heartbeat 💓

BB OS 10 on Black Berry Passport is good but it lacked any app support whatsoever. This one Blackberry Priv is android 6.0 not BB OS 10.
@@RetroVintageMobileCollectoris it still worth the purchase in 2024 ? Are there custom ROMs that can be used on it ? Please help
@@timiYES It's worth or not is your subjective call. I have presented that it's still functioning in 2024 and it's great hardware.

I loved the keyboard on that thing. Wish there was something comparable in 2024.
There might be if Clicks for iPhone turns out to be a good product
@@MrOldWilliam sadly its a fixed case, which makes it impractical imho.
I loved the slide to open on the Priv.
The sliding mechanism and the capacitive trackpad build into keyboard both works flawless even today, whole 8 year after the phone was released.
@@RetroVintageMobileCollector yeah, if only you could run the latest android on it
@@Teh-Penguin You cannot unlock a Blackberry's bootloader no matter how much you try.... Not possible given their security and encryption....
Si sacaran un cell con este estilo lo compro me encanta el diseño y el teclsdo ❤

Yes hardware is a piece of art, software is what killed it! Thanks for watching!
did you try to root the priv on android 5.1 version before the patch fix? using kingo-root? then supersume pro?
You cannot unlock Blackberry Bootloader brother, not even possible given their security... Thanks!
I will gonna buy one refurbished blackberry.. which one should I go with..priv or passport??
i just got mine and for some reason it’s not letting me download apps, do you know why it may be?
also they sold 2yrs old chip with flagship prices when they try to catch up using android software. they shouldve done what oneplus done before. flagship specs for cheap
Yes the chip was weakest Qualcomm Flagship chip ever produced SD-808 Hexacore. And BB OS was not polished to run on android in first iteration.
Quanto? Em 2024?
yes in 2024!
You running Lineage Android 13 ?
You cannot unlock bootloader on Blackberry Phones. This is last Android build Blackberry Priv supported 6.0.1 !
Mo one does it like blackberry
