BlackBerry confirms ‘Priv’ Android phone will launch this year
In its latest earnings report, BlackBerry has confirmed that rumors of its first Android device, called Priv, are accurate. CEO John Chen said that the device will “support Android for Work on the the BES12 platform… (and) offer best in class security for enterprise customers.” The device will arrive by the end of 2015, and other details like specs and price, will be revealed soon. So far, rumors indicate that it’ll have a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge-like curved screen, QWERTY keyboard slider and 18-megapixel camera. Despite the company’s turn toward Android, Chen said it “remains committed to the BlackBerry 10 OS,” and will release version 10.3.3 in March, 2016.
