The BlindShell Classic 2 has large, tactile buttons on the keypad and voice control, and specially designed hardware, which includes an improved loudspeaker, long-life battery and a 13MP camera. Most importantly, it’s really simple to use.

If you need more apps than the ones that are pre-installed, use the BlindShell app catalogue to choose what you need.

As well as the colour detector and NFC tagger, other assistive tools include a magnifier, GPS location, and an SOS button. You can also have single button access to your favourite apps.

Add NFC tags to items to help you identify them with your phone – for example, distinguish between toothpaste and hand cream.

BlindShell Classic 2 also offers you a book reader, games, email, FM and internet radio, a music player and a voice recorder.

When you buy this phone, you can access a free 30-minute remote training session to help get you started. Call VisionAid on 0800 002 5555 to book your remote training session.
