@ 2016/04/13Blackberry has admitted that its Android-based Priv was too expensive and it is going to stick to cheap and cheerful from now on.
The BlackBerry Priv did so badly that Blackberry refused to say how many it has flogged during its fiscal fourth-quarter earnings call last week.
BlackBerry CEO John Chen said the Priv was "too expensive", and that the firm will instead focus on the mid-range market this year with the launch of two affordable Android handsets. Coming out with a high-end phone as our first Android device was pretty dumb, he said.
