Smartphone cases are one of the important parts of our lives, although not as much as they used to be. For most of us, these cases not only protect the phone, but also have functional features. Clicks, a London startup, has designed a case with a physical keyboard for the iPhone. Here is the interesting case and its surprising features.
A physical keyboard case is coming for iPhone 14,15 Pro and 15 Pro Max
Although we do not come across many cases on the Android side, there are many functional cases on the iPhone side. One of the new ones is the Clicks case, which offers a physical keyboard for the iPhone. We see a case that reminds us of the Blackberry physical keyboard, especially with its appearance and design.
The most important feature of the case is that it connects physically to the iPhone charging outlet, not via Bluetooth. The physical case for the iPhone thus uses features such as keyboard illumination by taking advantage of the iPhone battery. The physical keyboard in the case does not divide the screen and does not affect your screen experience. In this respect, it is different from the physical keyboards previously released.
Some shortcuts on the physical keyboard also allow you to control the iPhone without touching the screen. Michael Fisher and Kevin Michaluk, who lead the team that developed the case, have many years of experience using smartphones with a physical keyboard. In particular, Kevin Michaluk also owns a website for Blackberry users. In this sense, it will not be a surprise if the physical keyboard case is as useful as the Blackberry keyboard.
iPhone 17’s front camera has been revealed!
Apple has created its long-term plans. The resulting reports contain details about the iPhone 17 front camera.
The physical keyboard case will currently appear at CES 2024. However, this functional case will be released on February 1, 2024. The price of the case was determined as 139 dollars. The model currently has two color options: yellow and grey. However, you can only use this case on iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max models. In this sense, the price of the case for iPhone 15 Pro Max is 159 dollars. The company will make the first shipments for the iPhone 14 Pro in February. However, for the iPhone 15 Pro, this date will be shipped in mid-March, and for the Pro Max, it will be shipped in April.
BlackBerry was the only brand to survive the smartphone era with a physical keyboard. BlackBerry, which became the most popular brand especially in the business world with the iPhone, could not overcome the financial crises. BlackBerry, which tried to go beyond these genes for a while and abandoned the keyboard, ended smartphone production when it could not achieve the sales figures it wanted.
So, is the iPhone case with physical keyboard really functional? We are waiting your comments.
