BlackBerry Classic prossimamente disponibile nella nuova colorazione Cobalt Blue

Dopo il relativo successo di Classic, che ha permesso a BlackBerry di rimontare in borsa, la società canadese ha presentato una nuova colorazione per il suo smartphone: Cobalt Blue, ovvero blu cobalto.

Disponibile in edizione limitata, la colorazione Cobalt Blue si affianca alle classiche versioni bianche e nere. BlackBerry Classic rappresenta uno dei migliori dispositivi BlackBerry attualmente disponibili, anche se limitato dal suo ecosistema (nonostante la presenza di Amazon App Shop).

The cobalt blue colored BlackBerry Classic is available starting today through ShopBlackBerry.com in the U.S., Canada, the UK and the Netherlands.

·       Greater variety of applications through BlackBerry World and the Amazon Appstore
Top features of the BlackBerry Classic that drive productivity, communications and collaboration include:

 

·       BlackBerry® Keyboard & Trackpad – The QWERTY keyboard has stood the test of time as the iconic BlackBerry feature that users know and trust. Crafted for optimal speed and accuracy, the BlackBerry Classic’s QWERTY keyboard gives users the control and confidence to communicate quickly and clearly using one hand with a trackpad and classic navigation keys.

·       BlackBerry® Browser – The BlackBerry 10 web browser is amazingly fast and astoundingly beautiful. That’s why HTML5TEST.com rates it amongst the top mobile browsers for web fidelity.* Access your favorite online content as it was meant to be seen, faster than ever before and with unlimited browser tabs.

·       Screen & Battery – The BlackBerry Classic offers a form factor optimized for power communicators with a 3.5-inch touch screen display, 294 dpi HD resolution and Corning® Gorilla® Glass 3 for greater durability. The BlackBerry Classic also offers a large battery capacity and state-of-the-art battery optimization software.

·       Premium Components – The BlackBerry Classic has been designed with high-quality materials and finishes to provide optimal grip and better protection from impact. From the protective outer frame that we machined from a solid block of stainless steel, to the drafted angle of the frame to provide better impact protection when dropped as well as more ergonomic in hand.

·       BlackBerry® 10 OS– The BlackBerry Classic comes preloaded with the BlackBerry 10 operating system.*** With this operating system, users gain access to powerful features, including:

o   BlackBerry® Blend – BlackBerry Blend brings messaging and content that is on your BlackBerry smartphone to your computer and tablet. Get instant message notifications, read and respond to your work and personal email, BBM™ and text messages, and access your documents, calendar, contacts and media in real time on whatever device you are on, powered by your BlackBerry.

o   BlackBerry® Assistant – The BlackBerry Assistant is BlackBerry’s first digital assistant and can be used with voice and text commands to help users manage work and personal email, contacts, calendar and other native BlackBerry 10 applications. It’s the only smartphone assistant on the market today that can access both personal and work content in your work perimeter. BlackBerry Assistant intelligently determines how to respond to you based on how you interact with it – if you type, it responds silently, if you speak, it speaks back and if you activate over Bluetooth, it speaks back with additional context because it assumes you might not have access to the screen.

o   Dual app storefronts for a wealth of professional and popular apps:

§  BlackBerry World – BlackBerry World showcases essential productivity apps for business professionals looking to drive efficient communications and collaboration.

§  Amazon Appstore – Preloaded on BlackBerry Classic, users can access popular Android apps and games through the Amazon Appstore including Candy Crush Saga, Pinterest, Kindle for Android and Cut the Rope 2. Users can also scan Android apps for malware and privacy issues prior to installation using BlackBerry Guardian.

·       BlackBerry® Hub – The one place to manage all your conversations – email, texts, BBM, phone calls, social media and more. You can even glance at what’s next in your calendar. It’s always available with a single swipe to help you stay organized, in control and on top of all your conversations.

 

BlackBerry Classic is built on BlackBerry’s renowned secure operating system, with built-in protection against viruses, tampering and data leaks. The BlackBerry Classic is private by default, protecting users with encrypted email, web browsing and BBM.
