I tested the Clicks Power Keyboard against my touchscreen — the results ruined my BlackBerry nostalgia
I tested the MagSafe Clicks Power Keyboard against my smartphone touchscreen. Here is why physical keys, bulky ergonomics, and nostalgia don't mix.
The Clicks Power Keyboard, a MagSafe-compatible slide-out QWERTY keyboard, was tested against a touchscreen on a user's BlackBerry-era nostalgia journey. Despite its well-made keys and satisfying click, the user found that typing speed and accuracy on the physical keyboard were significantly lower than on the touchscreen. The accessory added bulk and weight to the phone, making it feel top-heavy and unstable while typing.
The build quality was criticized for its cheap-feeling plastic and loose hinge. However, the user did appreciate the power bank integration and the device's versatility as a universal remote for various devices. The Clicks Power Keyboard proved to be more useful as a multi-device hub than a daily driver for a phone, particularly for those who enjoy using it with devices like the Samsung Dex and Viture Pro 2 glasses.
