Business seems to be going well for BlackBerry over the last quarter (well, by the company's recent standards) and it's in no small part thanks to the Priv. A smartphone with its share of flaws as we established while doing our in-depth review, the BlackBerry Priv nonetheless manages to entice users, and our weekly poll results are in to attest that. At 77% in favor, the general public opinion is pretty clear - the Priv has a lot to offer to offset whatever disadvantages it may have. Or at least a little something for anyone, be it the hardware keyboard, the BlackBerry-enhanced Android build, or the nifty sliding mechanism, which is a breath of fresh air in today's realm of plain tile-like touchscreen phones.
