For corporations who are fearful of pictures being taken of secret projects, giving employees a smartphone to use contains a risk. But there is a currently offered model that will soon be available without a rear or front-facing camera. That model is the BlackBerry Classic. Available from Verizon, the camera-less version of the handset is actually called the BlackBerry Classic Non Camera.
Outside of the missing cameras, the specs remain the same including a 3.5-inch screen with a resolution of 720 x 720. A dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8960 CPU is under the hood and the handset is equipped with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of native storage. Need more memory? A 128GB microSD slot is available for such matters. A 2515mAh battery keeps the lights on and BlackBerry 10.3.1 is pre-installed. That means BlackBerry Assistant comes with the unit right out of the box.
The BlackBerry Classic Non Camera can be pre-ordered from Verizon (click on the sourcelink) for $99.99 with a signed two-year pact. That includes a $50 mail-in rebate that expires after March 16th. The phone won't ship until March 31st, 2015.
The BlackBerry Non Camera launches via Verizon on March 31st
