First announced at CES 2024, the Clicks physical keyboard add-on for iPhones has proven to be a modest hit.Soon, some Android users will be able to get in on the action.That’s right.
The company just announced a redesign specifically for certain Android handsets.The overall design doesn’t look too different from the iPhone version.It’s a sleeve that you pop the phone into.Once connected, you can type with physical keys via a free Android companion app.
There’s backlit keys, USB-C charging and support for shortcuts.By their very nature, Clicks keyboards also provide more screen real estate, which is always nice.The company says these new versions feature “brushed metal side keys, a microfibre interior and precision moulded enclosures that are custom-engineered to fit each Android smartphone.” With that said, the Android-based Clicks keyboard only integrates with the Pixel 9 and 9 Pro, the Galaxy S25 and the Moto Razr+.That last one actually requires a unique design, given that the Razr+ is a flip-style foldable.The Pixel 9 versions will be out first, at the end of April, with an introductory pre-order price of $99.
That promotion ends on March 21 and the cost goes up to $139.The Razr+ case will be available in May, with the same $99 pre-order campaign running until March 21.The Samsung Galaxy model starts shipping out in June and features the same $99/$139 pre-order pricing model with a March 21 cutoff date.
