Yes BlackBerry Priv slider smartphone that runs on Google's Android OS can be pre-ordered by those living in the United States, United Kingdom and Canada starting today. The handset is priced at $700 in the United States, $900 CND in Canada and £559 in the UK. As you can see, pricing for the Priv varies according to where it is sold.

If we should go by the US' pricing, the BB Priv would cost as much as N139,000 in Nigeria. Yeah the handset is more expensive than the iPhone 6S or even the Galaxy S6 Edge. This goes to show that BlackBerry is targeting enterprise users who wants security and wants to do more than only business on their phone.

Can they sell 5 million of the Priv before 2016 runs out?

Do you know the irony of your comment? BB as a brand would probably outlast that of Sony's Xperia mobile division, going by the huge loss the later suffers every year.

Priv (short for private) is an high-end blackberry device that combines the famed Blackberry security with an open source OS in the mold of Google's Android one, and was designed to target the RICH consumers, the creme de la creme of the society. This device is not for everyone, only for those that can afford it.

So churches have up to this savings and wealth in millions of dollars while most of the members live in abject poverty, they should preach to themselves before preaching others! Yes charity begins at home.
Why Nigerians are so heartless, ungodly and so insensitive to the plight of the masses, if not why would a church need a mansion or a private jet before it can preach the gospel of god, are they worshipping money or the lord? A question needs to be answered here. Why the money won’t be invested into the lives of fellow Nigerians
Did they forget the proverb that says that an idle man is a devils workshop or “a hungry man is an angry man, if they really want to change people they should start by changing their living condition.
Most causes of sin in our society are poverty, jobles

Coming in up with a good cosmetic design with high price tag is one thing, equipping the device with chips and functionalities that is worth the price while at the same time satisfying the consumer is entirely another thing. I wonder why the OP didn't bother giving a detail of the specs of the phone; processor, RAM, camera strenghten, and very importantly everyone knows how disappointing BB has been when it comes to battery.
Well like their previous models, in less than 3months you would see a sharp and continuous decline in price when the short falls of the phone would come to limelight.
