    Any of you Z10 users are thinking of switching to the BlackBerry Priv when it's released?

    It looks pretty good to me.. Hardware wise. Looks pretty sweet. Not too sure about the software though. Still not exactly sure how android would run on a BlackBerry.

    Nope. Tried iPhone and Android before discovering BB10 and the Hub (and to a lesser extent, the BB10 Remember app, which seems to really work for me).

    I have found an oasis of productivity, a quiet place away from the maelstrom of OSes and apps and games and data mining and updates, updates, updates.

    It may not last forever, but what does?

    I like it here. Think I'll stay awhile.

    As long as I can.

    There is said to be a Hub. It's Android, but enhanced by BlackBerry.

    I'm actually really curious to see how it's gonna be! For Android to run on a BlackBerry.

    I think it may win back some customers.

    Yeah, I'm not exactly with the whole Android BlackBerry but the device actually looks really great. Specially in terms of specs.

    I was thinking about it because I loved my Torch but now I'm not so sure.

    I prefer BlackBerry 10 for sure. Only reason I would go to priv is if I got it for free or dirt cheap as my z10 is slowly dying.

    Why would I pay $700-1000 to use an android version of something I have now?

    I paid $88 for my used Z10 and spent maybe half that on accessories. It does almost everything I need and my (now sim-less) iPhone 4S does the rest.

    When I have to move off these devices, I expect BB10 will have been abandoned and I'll probably go back to the iPhone. I hate it less than android.

    With any luck, the Hub will be available on ios by then.

    Loved my Z10 and would be all over the slider if it ran BB10. (sorry I can't bring myself to type the official name out it's probably the worst thing about the phone)

    I wonder if the Priv will have BlackBerry Bridge. Even in its crippled BB10 state.

    As a previous Z10 owner, I will never have anything other than BB10 for me, as long as it lasts. And I'm really hoping it will for a long time.

    I'll eventually buy it just to see how well it works. I'll most likely wait for a price drop; probably when it goes below $500.

    I am a bit curious to see how well BlackBerry can make Android more secure and if the OS will include a hub like in BB10. The hub will most likely be the selling point for me.

    Another factor is if BlackBerry comes out with a Z30 replacement. If an all-touch device is in the works for 2016 then I might wait for that one.

    After 13 years of loyalty to the BlackBerry product why are we being asked to go to Android? Mr Chen I suggest you also bring out a BlackBerry version at the same time!!!!!!

    I don't think I'll get a Priv, in the UK it'll be slated as "Priv" is slang for toilet, also like many people who have had their BB10 devices for a couple of years have got my Z10 doing what I want it to do,
    I hope it will attract many Android users to the BlackBerry life though!

    That's a tough question. If it ran BB10, I'd be all over it. I did see it had the HUB but think I would miss the other BB10 features. Will have to see...

    Don't count on it. Not even worth bothering doing anything for a dead product.
