Clicks Communicator surprise spec bump asks ‘what RAM crisis?’
Clicks just made its Blackberry-like Android phone even more tempting.
Clicks, the company reintroducing physical keyboards to mobile devices, is preparing to launch its first Android smartphone. The device, called Clicks Communicator, is set to arrive in December with several upgrades and new offerings. Previously positioned as a secondary device, Clicks has upgraded the Communicator's RAM from 8GB to 12GB, a move that makes it more competitive with top-tier smartphones.
The company also promises three OS upgrades and five years of security updates, ensuring the phone remains relevant until around 2032. The device will run on Android 17 out of the box and boasts a larger 4,350mAh battery. Accessories such as Dbrand's MNML cases and Prism screen protector, along with a bumper Ring case, will be available for the Communicator.
Clicks will continue to provide the Ring bumper case at $49 and offer Dbrand's accessories for $35 and $39 respectively. Additional Charging Covers are also on offer, with prices ranging from $50 to $80 depending on the material. In terms of additional services, Clicks is launching a $129 protection plan called Clicks Care, which covers accidental damage for two years with a $49 deductible.
Furthermore, Clicks Mobile, a new MVNO service, will provide voice and data to the Communicator via eSIM in the US and UK, including two months of free service upon activation. The device will be available for pre-order starting September 30th at $499, with the price increasing to $650 from October 1st.
