Verizon sells this Android handset retail for $720 USD outright, but those interested can also grab it for 24 monthly payments of $30 each.

Verizon Wireless customers have been waiting to get the BlackBerry Priv for ages and now their wish is finally granted. This Android handset with physical keyboard and dual-edge display has hit the market back in November 2015, so it took Verizon almost four months to add it to its portfolio.

Strange enough, Verizon added the Priv handset silently to its website, so it is not known yet when will it hit the carrier's retail stores. For now, it can be acquired online for $720 USD outright, or $30 USD per month with a 24 month contract, next to the cost of the data plan that can range from $30 USD to $100 USD a month.

BlackBerry Priv is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808, featuring 3 GB RAM, 32 GB internal memory and additional storage via microSD, 18 MP main camera, 3410 mAh battery with Quick Charge 2.0, and still runs Android 5.1.1 Lollipop.
