It may already be August, but the summer fun continues for us here at Adaptations with the announcement of a brand-new product available in-store and online. We are excited to introduce the BlindShell Classic 2 – a talking smartphone designed specifically for those who are blind or have low vision!

The BlindShell Classic 2 is the ultimate in accessible cell phones. It will clearly speak all numbers and menu options in the voice setting of your choosing. The keys are thoughtfully designed with raised symbols that are easily discerned from one another by touch. This phone is based on the Android platform and contains several accessible built-in apps designed with blind users in mind. For users who are new to, or struggle with, touchscreen devices, the tactile buttons and spoken feedback makes the BlindShell Classic 2 the perfect device!

One of the BlindShell Classic 2’s greatest features are its ability to download a popular visual interpreting app called Aira. Aira connects the user to a sighted agent capable of using the BlindShell Classic 2’s camera to see the caller’s environment. Need to read a document or find out what’s on a restaurant menu? Are you hunting for the entrance to an unfamiliar place? Did you receive a card in the mail but can’t make out who it came from or what it says? Now, a live on-demand visual interpreting subscription can be yours with just the press of a few buttons! The sky is the limit, and we can’t wait to see how many new ways our Adaptations shoppers will find to make use of this tremendous feature.

Order your BlindShell Classic 2 in red or in black today for $489 from Adaptations.org. You may also place an order by phone or connect with one of our knowledgeable staff members by calling 888-400-8933.

Happy shopping!
