I don't remember having to reboot my Priv, or my previous phone, THL 5000 in its >2 years career. I guess, in total, it was booted up 5-10 times in that period, a few times because of system updates and the others in the extremely rare occasion when I would manage to drain its entire 5000 mAh battery after 2.5-3 days of usage. Unlike iPhones, where I'd see random reboots and the whole system not wanting to launch anything and requiring a reboot to start functioning again, at least on a bi-monthly basis. And that despite the fact that it wasn't my phone, but my wife's, so I'd see that in the few hours after work or on weekends.
Why do you have to reboot your Priv all the time? It can run from update to update with no problems whatsoever.
Priv runs circles around the iPhone 6, that's for sure. Especially battery life-wise. Reliability, no... That's just a myth now. Even the research from the past year or two state that there are more crashes on iOS. Despite the fact that those are only very high-end devices, closed system blabla and Androids come in a variety of "flavors" and prices from 10-1000 $ from probably more than 100 manufacturers.

That's three quarters in a row of more "failures" than on Android. iOS used to be nice stable system, but Android has obviously really surpassed it on that front.
Btw, for those of you who swear by the "BlackBerry poor RAM management all memory consumed phone laggy" nonsense... I accidentally stumbled upon this last night. No problems whatsoever, no redraws, no lags, just running normally.
