Product Description

The BlindShell Classic 2 is a fully speaking, tactile button cell phone, in an upgraded form factor from the original BlindShell Classic.  This talking mobile phone offers the ease of use of a traditional tactile key button phone, but also offers many of the conveniences and apps of the modern smartphone.  It is similar to the orginal BlindShell Classic, but has been completely redesigned and offers many new features compared to the original Classic, including access to an app catalog, an extra loud speaker, improved camera, and a 96 hour improved battery life.

Standard phone functions on the BlindShell Classic 2 include calling and one touch speed dials, SMS texts, email, contact management, notes, and calendar! Other specialized functions include a camera, calculator, timer, alarm, color identifier, QR code object tagging, FM radio, audio player, book reader, Bluetooth connectivity, and a specially located one touch SOS button.  New  features on the Classic 2 include a BlindShell app catalog, for access to new and future apps including WhatsApp, FaceBook Messenger, YouTube, Be My Eyes, Amazon Shopper, and Audible.  Classic 2 also includes functionality for NFC (Near Field Communication) tagging, a magnifier, and BlindShell Beep – a paging system for locating personal devices.  With the Classic 2, voice control now works offline (out of wifi range) in addition to on line, allowing the user to control the phone with their voice, regardless of where they are.  Available in black or red.  Please specify.
