BlackBerry Classic is a BlackBerry 10 smartphone developed by BlackBerry Limited, released on December 17, 2014. It was intended as a spiritual successor to the previous BlackBerry OS-based BlackBerry Bold line, with a similar design incorporating a touchscreen, a physical keyboard, as well as navigation keys and an optical trackpad that can be used to navigate the operating system.
The BlackBerry Classic received mostly positive reviews, with critics praising the device's design, its flexibility in navigation options, as well as some of its OS features, but being mixed on its cameras, performance, the dimensions of its display, application support, and usability for users that are not familiar with BlackBerry devices.
