BlackBerry launched the pre-registration page for its BlackBerry Priv device to get potential customers more excited about the company's first ever secure Android smartphone. BlackBerry also revealed some specs about the device, which include a 5.4" dual-curved screen, a rather large 3,410 mAh battery (BlackBerry used to be known for its long-battery life smartphones after all), physical keyboard (making it one of the few companies to still offer one), a Schneider-Kreuznach certified camera, and "extraordinary audio quality."

The company also said the phone will come with a "DTEK" warning system, which will protect user privacy. BlackBerry didn't offer any further information about this feature.

From previous leaks and rumors, it came out that the Priv will indeed be a device that focuses heavily on security and privacy. One of the biggest features will be the kernel enhancements the Priv will presumably have thanks to the Grsecurity suite of kernel patches.
