BlackBerry launches last phone it will carry on its books


Blackberry Priv

TORONTO: BlackBerry Ltd launched its third Android-based phone on Oct 25, the last device whose success will be the company's financial responsibility, opting to price its top-end device well below Apple Inc's iPhone 7. 

The Canadian smartphone pioneer, which has lost most of the market to Apple and others, last month said it planned to completely outsource the development of its smartphones to focus on its more profitable business of making software and managing mobile devices.
