This article reviews the Clicks, a physical keyboard case for the iPhone, highlighting its advantages and potential drawbacks.
Pre-order inventory for the Clicks accessory had sold out. But because Seacrest used his BlackBerry to design the keyboard, it looked too similar to the physical QWERTY employed on the BlackBerry Q10. BlackBerry initiated legal action and despite a redesigned Typo 2, the whole project lost momentum and the Typo was deleted. The Typo failure didn't stop Michael Fisher (Mr. Mobile) and Kevin Michaluk (CrackBerry) from coming up with Clicks, an iPhone case with a physical keyboard.
I purchased a Clicks case for my iPhone and slipping the phone into the case couldn't be easier. But what you really want to hear about is the typing. Admittedly, there is a small learning curve and some of that has nothing to do with the actual typing.For example, a few times I would just forget that I had a physical keyboard and would wait for the virtual QWERTY to appear. When you have Clicks on your iPhone, the virtual QWERTY will not show up unless you hit the key to bring it up on the display. So occasionally I would be zoned out forgetting to tap on the first letter I wanted to type. But that is no big deal. As for the actual typing, hitting the extra key to type numbers, punctuation, and special characters was surprisingly no problem at all. With the backlit keys, typing in the dark is not a problem. After four days, typing with Clicks became second nature. I was typing long sentences without an issue and remembering to hit the numbers key before each number when typing a multi-digit numeral. The only problem that you might experience is that with the keys at the bottom of the phone, a big device like the iPhone 6 Plus might be a bit awkward to hold. One of the things that Fisher and Michaluk have done that Seacrest didn't was get their product into the right stores. Clicks is available, via Best Buy (online and in stores), Selfridges & Co. stores in the U.K., Swap Asia (online only), and from Amazon (online only) which is where I purchased my Clicks.($159) in color options including the appropriately named London Sky, or Bumble Bee
