Clicks Co-Founder Weighs In on Company's Latest Devices
The gadget-loving company, known for its charmingly out-of-place keyboard cases and accessories, recently unveiled a new magnetic keyboard accessory called the Power Keyboard, which can be used as both a battery pack and a traditional keyboard. The device is a big improvement over its predecessor, with features such as a dedicated number row and a slider form factor that gives it an old-school feel.
According to Clicks co-founder Jeff Gadway, the company's latest devices are aimed at people who want a more premium typing experience without breaking the bank. "You've got people who are mandated to carry a second device for corporate deployment," he explained. "Then you've got small business owners and travelers who want a separate phone for their work or personal use." Gadway also mentioned that there's a growing trend of digital detox and digital minimalism, where people want a simpler way to communicate.
The Power Keyboard is priced at $79 and is available now for pre-order. While it may not be the most feature-rich device on the market, its unique design and functionality make it an attractive option for those who value tactile typing.
The company's more unexpected product, the Communicator, is a squarish Android phone with a 4-inch touchscreen keyboard. It features a custom implementation of the Niagara Android launcher, which focuses on messaging apps and quickly triaging through new items. The device also includes customizable LED lighting and can be swiped across to navigate and take actions on what you see.
The Communicator is priced at $399, which puts it in competition with high-end smartphones like the Pixel 9a. While its form factor may not appeal to everyone, its unique design and focus on messaging apps make it an interesting alternative for those who want a device that's specifically designed for communication.
Ultimately, whether or not Clicks' latest devices will find their audience remains to be seen. However, with their commitment to creating high-quality accessories and devices, the company is definitely worth keeping an eye on in the future.

. Who needs a battery pack keyboard? It's just gonna end up as another thing collecting dust in my bag 
. And don't even get me started on that Android phone, it looks like a calculator from the 90s 
. I mean, can't they just make something simple for once? A good old-fashioned flip phone would be perfect 
. At least those are easy to use and don't need charging every five seconds 
️.
. I mean, what's really going on with this company, right? They're just churning out these gadgets left and right, but are they even making any real money from it all? And have you noticed that their devices always seem to pop up at exactly the same time? Coincidence? Nah... there's gotta be more to it 
.
. And don't even get me started on the Communicator - I love the idea of a squarish phone with a physical keyboard, but $399 is just steep 
... if Clicks can pull it off, they might just be onto something 
.
. And yeah, I know some people who have to use their work phones all day and this would be perfect for them. But $79 is still kinda pricey if you ask me... 
I'm definitely pre-ordering one of these. The Communicator sounds interesting too, but I'm not sure if I'd want to give up my phone for an Android device just yet. But hey, I'll keep an eye on their future releases 
. & $399? that's just too much. i dunno about digital detox and minimalism, sounds like ppl just trying to avoid tech stress or something 
. anyways, i guess its cool that they're trying to create high-quality stuff, but i'll stick to my trusty old phone for now 
- who wouldn't want a device that can charge their phone while also giving them a premium typing experience? And the Communicator phone... well, I'm not sure about it being perfect for everyone, but I love the idea of a dedicated messaging app launcher 
. Maybe Clicks is onto something with this digital detox and minimalism thing. Anyway, I'll be keeping an eye on what they come up with next 
The Communicator phone is also super cool, especially with its custom Niagara Android launcher and customizable LED lighting 
I love how Clicks is trying to cater to people who want a more premium typing experience without breaking the bank. It's like they're saying "Hey, we get it, you want to stay connected but not sacrifice your sanity" 
The customizable LED lighting and messaging app focus is really interesting - fingers crossed it finds its audience! 
and $399 for it? no thanks, give me a good old fangled flip phone any day 
at least those things don't require a battery pack to function 
. Of course, at $399, it might be a bit steep for some people, but hey, if you want a device that’s all about communication, maybe it’s worth the investment?
It's like they really listened to people who want a premium typing experience without breaking the bank 
. And can we talk about how sleek the Communicator looks? 
That custom Niagara Android launcher sounds soooo convenient for messaging apps 
like how would u even charge ur phone with that? 
now it's like $79 for a battery pack and keyboard combo, what a steal! 
. I mean, the Communicator phone is kinda weird but hey if it's got messaging apps and LED lights, that's more than I can say for my old flip phone
