BlackBerry PRIV's long list of features shown off in official video

Definitely one of the most anticipated devices this year, BlackBerry PRIV is the first Android-powered device coming from Waterloo and is geared towards security-focused users who want all that Android has to offer but who require the security, solid build and the physical QWERTY keyboard that only BlackBerry can produce. More information on the upcoming flagship appears in an official video above. What do you think? Is there room in the crowded Android flagship market for the PRIV? Does BlackBerry differentiate itself enough from the competion?

Apple Music on Apple TV to get Siri integration

Perhaps in a bid to get more users to subscribe to Apple Music, the company will be adding Siri support for Apple Music on the new Apple TV. So, you can ask it to play you your favorite albums and the like. Siri’s already able to conduct universal searches for video content on the set-top box, now it will be able to do it for music, too. Well, at least it will be able to do so by early next year.

Facebook brings expanded notification options to mobile

 

A new update for Facebook on Android and iOS is bringing an “expanded, personalized notifications tab” to you. This will show everything from updates of your friends, joining notifications, info about friends’ birthdays, live events, sports scores, TV shows, and even updates about certain locations if you have Location History enabled. Facebook though won’t change your existing notifications settings if those are okay with you. The adjustment options will just show up within the Settings so you can make changes as you see fit. Rollout is happening gradually for both operating systems in the US. If successful there, hopefully it makes its way here.
