Clicks is bringing its BlackBerry-style physical keyboard case to Android. The company on Tuesday announced the launch of three new products aimed at Android users, including Clicks keyboards for the Google Pixel, Motorola Razr+, and Samsung Galaxy.

The cases are available for pre-order starting today and will initially be offered at lower price points than their iPhone counterparts.

The Pixel 9 and 9 Pro cases are available for pre-order for $99, with the price rising to $139 after March 21.

Razr+ and Samsung Galaxy S25 users can get a case for $99, as well (which can be reserved with a $49 down payment). After March 21, both will also increase their price to $139.

The case originally received attention for its retro vibes, which brought back a bit of nostalgia for the BlackBerry era when phone keyboards actually clicked. Clicks went on to sell more than 100,000 of its iPhone cases in more than 100 countries, following its 2024 launch.

However, the iPhone case itself can be awkward to learn to use as the modern smartphone isn’t shaped like Blackberry devices, which were often short, wide, and squat. The weight of the case and iPhone combined can make users feel like they’re fighting gravity when they try to type, leading to a wobbly feeling in the hands.

Even Clicks admits that learning to use its keyboard could be difficult at first and offers help documentation on how to properly hold your phone. Still, at least some of those who train themselves on the new technique have learned to like it.

Like the Clicks iPhone cases, the Android keyboards include metal dome switches for tactile feedback, backlit keys, support for keyboard shortcuts, a microfibre interior, USB-C charging (plus wireless charging for Pixel devices), and more.

There’s also a companion app for saving user preferences.

The Pixel Clicks cases come in Surge (bright yellow) and Onyx (black), and ship in late April.
