The BlackBerry Priv has a Productivity Edge that makes the most of the curved display
BlackBerry‘s first Android-powered smartphone, the BlackBerry Priv, is now available for pre-order for the very handsome sum of $699 USD. While the device boasts privacy features, which is its namesake, the BlackBerry Priv has a Productivity Edge that can be used in similar fashion to the edge on the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. You’ll be able to drag out a panel of apps for quick access, located close to the edge of the display to make use of the Priv’s curved display – note that unlike the S6 Edge, the actual panel isn’t curved; rather the glass above it appears to be curved.
There also appear to be a number of other interesting features that will come in handy for Priv users, including pop-up widgets, a customized recent apps menu and a charging bar that only appears on the curved edge when the device is charging and the display is off. This is likely just the tip of the iceberg, and we’re interested to see what else BlackBerry has up its sleeve – though we’re not sure we’re $699 USD interested yet.
