Clicks is on a mission to bring keyboards back to smartphones, giving users the advantage of a physical QWERTY keyboard without compromising on screen space. It’s no secret that the BlackBerry experience is what Clicks aims to reproduce – no surprise with Michael Fisher (YouTuber MrMobile) and Kevin Michaluk (CrackBerry Kevin) involved. The first product – a keyboard case – didn’t excite me that much because it made the phone really long, too long for a normal pocket, but the Power Keyboard is a different story. I tried the Clicks Power Keyboard at CES 2026 , and it has me convinced that this is the must-have accessory that I need for my Pixel 10 Pro . A design that just makes sense The Clicks Power Keyboard pulls together a number of different features. Firstly, it’s a slide-out full QWERTY keyboard, which means it doesn’t have to be out all the time. When it’s not in use, it’s tucked away behind your phone. It connects via Bluetooth.

This means it will work with all recent iPhone models ( iPhone 12 or later) as well as Android phones using Qi2, which basically amounts to the Pixel 10 family and HMD Skyline . It houses a 2150mAh battery, charging your phone via 5W Qi wireless charging when attached, while it has a dedicated battery to power the keyboard. A joy to use I’ve been reviewing phones for nearly 20 years, and I cut my teeth in the early years of BlackBerry. I’ve lived with all the major BlackBerry phones, I’ve used T9 keyboards, SureType, full QWERTY and everything in between. I’ve been there and done it. There’s something in my thumbs that simply will not forget the BlackBerry experience. It’s partly nostalgia, but it’s mostly muscle memory. As soon as I had my thumbs on the Clicks Power Keyboard, they were flying. BlackBerry put a lot of thought into the design of its keyboards back in the day, and that’s now reflected in Clicks. It’s no coincidence. BlackBerry’s lead designer, Joseph Hofer, now designs the Clicks keyboard, something that comes across in the feel. I found that to be more prominent on the Clicks Power Keyboard and the new Clicks Communicator (a full phone for communication, pictured below) than on the old keyboard case. There’s a great slide action on the Power Keyboard, clicking into place ready to be used and giving you lots of screen space while typing, which is the immediate advantage. For a power user, especially those laying down a lot of text on the move, having more screen real estate is what Clicks gets you. For working on the move, it’s a productivity dream I’ve been working on the move for a long time, and I soon learnt that while replying to emails and messages is fine on a mobile keyboard, anything more ambitious is compromised. Although I have written fairly long reviews on mobile phones, it’s not ideal. It’s awkward because there’s so little space to read as you work. Clicks gets around this problem, which is where I think it has real potential. It allows compact typing when there isn’t space to get a laptop out. For me, that’s the sort of situation I face on the train. I often want to keep writing while commuting, but I don’t always have a seat and I don’t always have elbow space when squished into the middle seat. Clicks solves that, meaning both thumbs can go to work, while the Pixel 10 Pro ‘s 6.3-inch screen is all available for that story to unfold before my eyes. When not using the keyboard, it can stay on the phone and slide away, but I’d be just as happy to disconnect it and slip it into a different pocket, ready for its next deployment. It’s impressively versatile Because the Clicks Power Keyboard connects via magnets, it’s not limited to portrait use – it can also be rotated to work in landscape. This might bring back LG Wing vibes, but there’s another advantage here, especially when working on wide documents. Chris Hall / Foundry This will benefit those working with spreadsheets who need a little more width without having to zoom to impossibly small sizes. What surprised me about the Clicks Power Keyboard was the £60 / $79 introductory price. For fans of the BlackBerry who hark back to those days because of the power that the keyboard offered, it’s an inexpensive way to seriously upgrade the modern smartphone experience. You can pre-order one now, directly from the Clicks website , with orders expected to begin shipping in the spring. Colour me impressed! My pre-order is placed.
