The BlackBerry Priv

The Priv holds a particularly interesting position in BlackBerry history.

It became BlackBerry's first Android-powered smartphone while retaining one of the characteristics most strongly associated with the company: a physical keyboard.

Rather than permanently placing the keyboard underneath the screen, BlackBerry incorporated it into an innovative vertical slider design.

This allowed the Priv to combine a large touchscreen experience with the tactile keyboard that had defined BlackBerry devices for generations.

Unique Sliding QWERTY Keyboard

The defining feature of the BlackBerry Priv is its hidden physical QWERTY keyboard.

When closed, the device functions with its large touchscreen. Sliding the display upward reveals a complete physical keyboard beneath it.

This unusual mechanism gives the Priv a distinctive identity and makes it particularly interesting today for collectors of experimental and unconventional smartphone designs.

Distinctive BlackBerry Design

The BlackBerry Priv features a predominantly black exterior with a textured rear surface and centrally positioned BlackBerry emblem.

Its curved-edge display, large touchscreen and sliding keyboard represent a significant departure from earlier BlackBerry models while still preserving the brand's keyboard-focused heritage.
