Because I don't have $600 to burn on a new phone right now, when I already have two working phones: The Passport and a OnePlus One. So far, I haven't seen anything about the Priv that I just have to have.

The Passport is a pocket laptop. All other phones seem inferior.

Because I have no reason to get rid of it in favour of any other phone, it handles my needs and uses extremely well.

I was pretty much dead set on a Priv, but now that logic is kicking in I'm very happy with my Classic and SE Passport.

Once the price and demand drops for the Priv, I may pick one up.

...because I'm pretty sure if I spent the time to read the forums, I could get Google Play Services working on the Passport, and then a full Android phone would have no advantages to offer me, while there is a lot about BB10 that I really like.

Oh, and this phone is the perfect form factor, in my opinion.

Keeping mine because it's a great phone, love OS 10 and I already have a G3 as a backup to get my Android fix.

I only want the priv to play with... but after a week of the new-ness of it, I'd get bored of it.

Honestly, I've had android phones, there's very little that it actually does that I can't on passport already. The only thing I would do is download apps and play a day or two and delete... and that gets boring quick

My passport ain't about to go nowhere for the time been regardless of the hypertension about priv: I cannot foresee myself holding Android device in my hands.

Because this phone is unique, and then the feeling when using it.

The physical keyboard..!!!!!

Why leave my Passport for the Priv when:
1. I prefer BB10 OS over Android
2. My Passport is not even one year old.
3. My Passport does everything I need a mobile device to do and then some.
4. I cannot justify the expenditure.
5. I don't need a lot of apps

I am staying where I am because my unlocked BlackBeauty is a powerhouse tool that keeps me productive.

Couldn't have said it better myself. That's how I feel about my Classic but I plan on joing the Passport club in the next week or two.

Because I have to wait to get the priv. Definitely going to use device switch a lot and swap between then two.

[Nielz]

I won't leave my Passport for any phone. It's my secure mobile workstation.

If there wasn't a Passport then I would give the Priv a good chance.

... because it's the best smartphone on the planet, hands down!!

Actually, I see it as a 4.5" square tablet with a physical keyboard and phone capabilities. Nothing like it anywhere else. If it were marketed as such, not as just another smart phone, I think folks would see the magic this device has. But the hardware platform is so good IMO that I really don't care at the end of the day which OS it runs, just as long as the hardware is enabled to the max.

Because I just bought it last Friday and it's awesome :-D

Because I love BlackBerry 10 and really dislike Android.

If the Priv had bb10 as an option, I would consider it. Still would likely stay with passport though.

Reading this thread makes me thinking... maybe I should wait too.

I agree with you on MOST of what you said about the Passport. Except, without a doubt, a big part of what makes it such a powerhouse is in the OS. The fact that I can access my laptop files from anywhere within the phone's native file manager is huge!

However, the market thinks that this is a 'giant smartphone' and doesn't think of it as a mini-tablet which is a shame. I actually don't use my Passport as a phone anymore but, rather, have it as a companion to my Classic and I love it as such! It would also be the perfect companion to any platform. It's not just a phone though so the Priv could not replace it for me.

[redshiftquasars]

I think all the valid points have already been made on why. I just wanted to put my 2 cents in cause I really love typing on this thing and was looking for an excuse to type this up while I responded to a couple of text messages via the toast notifications.

Hello,

Because I realize that the conventional wisdom about apps doesn't apply heavily to me, and honestly if people really stepped back I suspect it wouldn't matter to them nearly as much either.

Eliminate games and add in the fact that there are these things called websites and there are very few things I really long for.

Or, in short I don't buy too heavily into the mindset Apple created and Android followed.

[ma678]

Because I haven't reserved enough funds for a new device yet.
