PHYSICAL KEYBOARD
—–
This phone has a physical keyboard! Big, well spaced tangible buttons. We wanted the BlindShell Classic to have a premium keypad, and we believe that we succeeded. Operating the phone is again as comfortable as it used to be before the smartphone era. It is hard to describe the feeling in words, one just has to try it!
The spacing between the keys makes orientation on the keypad very easy, so you will be able to distinguish between the keys right away. No need to fumble with your fingers around to find the right button. No need to be worried about pressing the wrong button either.
HIGHLIGHTS
Object tagging
By using special stickers you can label objects around you. Teach your phone what objects are the labels attached to, and easily recognise them later by using your phone. You can either record a short voice message, or enter a written description. One set of labels is supplied with the phone!
Many useful applications
Object tagging isn’t the only amazing application you can use. Another is the Email client, with which you can write and receive emails from your friends and colleagues. With Internet radio you can listen to thousands of radio stations from around the world. Weather app will tell you the current weather and forecast for next three days. If you are unsure about the place where you currently are, use the Location app, which will tell you your current GPS location and a nearest address.
SOS emergency button
If you get to a situation where a quick help from someone else is needed, you can use the SOS emergency button. Pressing the button for at least 3 seconds will call your emergency contact. (This contact can be set whenever you want). The outgoing emergency call have to be confirmed by you, so you do not need to worry about making the call accidentally.
