<\/p>\nClicks Technology is launching two new products ahead of the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas: its first smartphone, the Communicator, and a new $79 slide-out keyboard accessory.<\/p>\n
The Communicator is a $499 Android phone built around a physical keyboard and positioned as a second device for people who do most of their work on mobile, including messaging, email, and documents. The device is designed without access to social media apps or games and instead uses Niagara Launcher to surface messaging and productivity apps such as Gmail, Telegram, WhatsApp, and Slack.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A standout feature is a customizable \u201cSignal Light\u201d on the side of the phone, which can be set to different colors and patterns for specific people, groups, or apps. The same side button, labeled the \u201cPrompt Key,\u201d also supports dictation in text fields or quick voice notes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The phone includes a 3.5 mm headphone jack, physical SIM support alongside eSIM, expandable microSD storage up to 2TB, and swappable back covers. Early-bird pricing is set at $399 with a $199 deposit before Feb. 27, with shipping expected later in 2026.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Clicks is also launching the Power Keyboard, a slide-out keyboard for phones and other smart devices. It connects via MagSafe or Qi2 magnets, runs on a built-in 2,150 mAh battery, supports multiple slider positions for different phone sizes, and can be used with tablets, smart TVs, and other devices. Early-bird pricing is $79, rising to $109 later, with preorders starting Jan. 2 and shipping expected in spring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
