After only a month, the phone has arrived on the Indian shores as the company ties up exclusively with e-commerce portal Snapdeal to launch the Classic smartphone for millions of Blackberry enthusiasts in India. Priced at Rs. 31,990 in India, the Blackberry Classic is a great example of finding the golden mean of the customer's favorite features blended with latest technology. Interestingly, a day ahead of the launch, eBay hosted the phone its site with a price tag of Rs. 30,900, but Blackberry officials were quick in responding that the phones on eBay are imported one and do not have supportive warranty from the company in India.
Featuring BB 10 operating system, navigation keys, a track pad, a QWERTY 35 key backlit keyboard, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8960 chipset 1.5GHz dual core processor, 2GB RAM, an 8MP rear camera and a 2515mAh battery onboard that lasts over a day and a half, the Blackberry Classic specifications are only sure to lure the keyboard-loving brand followers.

In this exclusive Snapdeal tie-up, BlackBerry Classic is being offered with a couple of interesting deals.

And if you are a first-time buyer, on purchasing the Classic, you will receive goodies from Yatra.com of up to Rs. 10,000.
It is clear that, the company is trying to focus mainly on its business users (and not the young crowds) who want their smartphones to be all about productivity at their workplace, keeping in mind that both Blackberry Passport and Classic were targeted at the corporate personnel.
