BlackBerry Classic has been teased quite a few times throughout the last few weeks. Its pre-order campaign even kicked off weeks before the premiere, for $449. The wait is over though, as the BlackBerry is now officially announced and launched. BlackBerry Classic is the spiritual successor of the best-selling BlackBerry Bold 9900. It packs a 3.5" 720p touchscreen covered with a Gorilla Glass 3 piece and runs on a dual-core 1.5GHz processor and 2GB of RAM (same as BlackBerry Z10). The rest of the specs include 16GB expandable storage, 8MP rear cam with a LED flash, and a 2MP front snapper. Of course, BlackBerry Classic's key feature is the four-row hardware QWERTY keyboard and the return of the traditional control deck revolving around a squarish trackpad.
