Switch to Android from Blackberry 10 Passport
The Snapdragon 808 CPU in the Blackberry Priv has a Cat 9 LTE modem on board, and feels quite speedy on LTE or Wifi as compared to the Blackberry Passport, which was hindered by a slower CPU.
BB10 market share has been subsumed by the release of Android-based Blackberry hardware. The Priv enables carrying just one device for productivity apps, instead of relying on carrying an Android tablet for business productivity apps.
Blackberry Hub+ has been continually improved and gives a better overall experience on Android than BB10.
The Blackberry Android Mosaic task manager is better than the BB10 limit of 6 full size apps. Pull down on notification banners to expand them into a preview.
Android allows granular app permission setting. The DTEK app on Blackberry Android hardware allows monitoring utilization of permissions that are allowed.
The BlackBerry Priv camera satisfied in a wide variety of scenarios as compared to Blackberry 10 Passport camera.
2.4 / 5 GHz WiFi performance of the Priv seems very comparable to the Passport.
The Priv keyboard is pretty good. I prefer the landscape orientation (e.g. Moto Droid 4) instead of portrait, but it was better than I thought it’d be. I needed a few days to adapt from Passport keyboard.
The Blackberry Priv AMOLED naturally has popping, bright (good) color. The color temperature can be adjusted, but I didn’t need to adjust it.
