We can’t hardly wait for the BlackBerry Priv because we’re interested to know if an Android-powered BlackBerry will sell. We’ve seen some leaked images just the other day together with some specs. It’s no longer a rumor since BlackBerry CEO John Chen already showed it off in a cringe-worthy interview. While it’s understandable that Chen may still not be familiar with the Android user interface, it’s supposed to be a show-and-tell session–the perfect time to market the latest BlackBerry device.
There’s a another rumor spreading that the BlackBerry Priv’s camera is a Schneider-Kreuznach and boasts of an 18 megapixel sensor–most likely a Sony IMX230 sensor. If it’s an IMX230 sensor, then it’s more than just 18 megapixels. It’s actually 21MP, the same sensor on a Motorola Moto X Style.
This is the same sensor used by the Motorola Moto X Style for the main camera on its back. This could also just be one variant because two pre-production models have been spotted. Maybe BlackBerry is just testing the waters, waiting for public response and hopefully some suggestions.
A certain @Ricciolo1 on Twitter proudly announced that the “BlackBerry Priv will sport the IMX230 Sony Sensor”. Until BlackBerry makes an official announcement, we’re regarding this Sony sensor on BlackBerry a rumor for now.

All in all, the design and specs of this new BB look like a recipe for success. Security has always been key, and coupling that with good looks and great apps will help BB turn the corner. I can’t wait for launch just to see what it will do to their stock value.
Heyyo, very much agreed with. Blackberry were doing so good and slipped up… this is it, this could be their redeeming device. They just need some good marketing to go with it… like, better social media integration. Take a lesson from OnePlus… this Blackberry Priv has the ability to sell better than the OnePlus 2, but you’re gonna need to build that hype! Partner with MKBHD, Android Community, Android Authority, NCIX, C4ETech, TechnoBuffalo, Austin Evans, PocketNow… so, SO many people to just give a release device early to… but can easily net you sales if your device is as solid as it sounds! I know hype can be bad… but at least if those people review it and give it positives? You know it’ll drive people to your device. OnePlus thrives off hype and getting Android communities to post about every software update, hardware update, company news posts… C’mon Blackberry!!! Proud Canadian here rooting for a Canadian company eh? 🙂
