A UK-based company called Clicks is set to unveil a new iPhone accessory at CES 2024 in Las Vegas that may appeal to fans of BlackBerry phones. The Clicks creator keyboard is a case and a full physical keyboard in one, offering a more tactile typing experience for iPhone users.
Unlike previous attempts at physical iPhone keyboards, such as Ryan Seacrest’s Typo Keyboard, the Clicks keyboard attaches to the iPhone through its Lightning or USB-C port, depending on the model. This means it doesn’t cover any part of the screen or the device itself, allowing users to have a full view of the display while typing.
One of the advantages of the Clicks creator keyboard is that it doesn’t require a Bluetooth connection or a separate battery. It draws power directly from the iPhone, allowing users to charge their phone as usual. Additionally, the keyboard features a backlight for nighttime or dark room use and includes keyboard shortcuts for navigating the device without touching the screen.

However, it’s worth noting that the keys on the Clicks keyboard may be small, which could pose a challenge for users with larger hands and fingers. Despite this, the company claims that the keyboard was designed with input from a team of tech industry veterans, ensuring an intuitive layout and comfortable button feel.
The Clicks creator keyboard is currently available for pre-order on the company’s website for $139. Shipping is expected to begin on February 1. If you’re longing for the days of physical keyboards on smartphones, this accessory may be worth considering for a more tactile typing experience on your iPhone.
