Do you find typing on your phone screen annoying? Then you can now attach a real keyboard to your iPhone! That is how it works.
Keyboard for your iPhone
Ten years ago it was almost normal for telephones to have a keyboard, but nowadays we never see it anymore. Too bad, especially if you prefer typing on a physical keyboard. Fortunately, you now have another option, because with this phone case you can attach a keyboard to your iPhone! Your device will then be slightly larger, but you will have a real keyboard.

Clicks, the company behind the keyboard, has developed the accessory for the iPhone 14 Pro and the iPhone 15 Pro (Max). You click the keyboard onto the bottom of your iPhone, then you can start typing immediately. Also useful: a phone case is attached to the keyboard, so your iPhone is immediately protected. We explain to you how the accessory works and how expensive the keyboard is.
This is how the accessory works
The keyboard is suitable for the iPhone 14 Pro and the iPhone 15 Pro (Max). This means that Clicks has made three versions, because the iPhones have been equipped with a USB-C connection since last year. The accessory for the iPhone 14 Pro therefore works with a Lightning connection, while the accessory for the iPhone 15 Pro (Max) supports a USB-C port.
You can choose between yellow and gray on the keyboard. In practice, the phone case around the keyboard in particular has this color, the keys themselves remain dark. The keyboard itself supports actions such as scrolling on your iPhone, opening the home screen or sending emoji. Also useful: the keys are backlit, so you can see where to type even in the dark.
That’s how much you pay for the keyboard
Another advantage of the external keyboard is that the digital keys no longer appear on the screen of your iPhone. This gives you twice as much space when typing messages, notes or emails. The accessory will be available for the iPhone 14 Pro from next month, followed by the keyboard for the iPhone 15 Pro in March. You pay $139 for the phone case.
Do you have an iPhone 15 Pro Max? Then you’ll have to wait a little longer, because the keyboard for that phone won’t appear until the spring. You pay no less than $159 for the keyboard for the iPhone 15 Pro Max. The accessories are therefore quite expensive, but you do have a physical QWERTY keyboard with your iPhone. That’s nice, especially if you spend a lot of time typing on your phone.
