Ebay has once again reduced the price of the BlackBerry Priv, with physical QWERTY slider keyboard, massively for a limited period.

The 32GB model of the BlackBerry Priv can now be purchased for $399.99. BlackBerry store, on the other hand, is selling the same handset for $649. Interested buyers can save a cool $249.01 with this deal.

This GSM factory unlocked variant works under AT&T network and is tied to the model number STV100-1. As of Monday, only the black variant of this device is available on discount and it supports 4G LTE, among other standard connectivity options. Upon placing an order, buyers can avail free shipping service from eBay within the U.S.

So far, 1,311 units of this discounted BlackBerry Priv have been sold via eBay and the seller Quality Cellz has a good 99.2 percent positive rating on eBay.

Moving on to key specifications, the BlackBerry Priv features a 5.4-inch display, aided by 1,440 x 2,560 pixels screen resolution and Corning’s Gorilla Glass 4 panel protection. BlackBerry has housed dual-curved-side display on the Priv, which is similar to Samsung’s Galaxy S6 Edge+.

Under the hood, the Priv is powered by a hexa-core (Snapdragon 808) SoC and backed by 3GB of RAM. Apart from the 32GB native storage, this device also supports microSD card to facilitate expansion.

Furthermore, there is a phenomenal 18-megapixel main camera unit and a basic 2-megapixel front-facing shooter for selfies and video chats. On the software end, this device runs Android 5.1.1 Lollipop OS out of the box. However, it is upgradable to the latest Android 6.0 Marshmallow.

The BlackBerry Priv comes housed with a big Li-Ion 3,410 mAh non-removable battery unit. This cell will apparently be able to offer up to 24 hours of talk time and about 420 hours of stand-by time.
