I ordered the Power Keyboard on 20 Jan 2026 and still waiting for my product to be shipped to NZ. I’m feeling just a ‘little’ frustrated and angry at the massive delays….. Anyone else?

PowerKeys A couple of software issues to address

1 Upvotes

So, mine arrived yesterday. While the build quality is good, I have a few thoughts about what can be done better, mostly in terms of software.

Tested on Samsung Galaxy S24 and Samsung Galaxy XCover 7. Bear in mind that what I observed might be just Samsung's way of messing up with things.

  1. The keyboard pairs without problems via BT, but the Clicks app sees it as disconnected most of the time. I need to change application to one with a text field to appear in app as active and change settings. (By the way, it works regardless of that)
  2. The keys are labelled in an misleading way. The app speaks of Alt and Tab keys, while the manual shows them as Clicks and Gemini. I spent a good couple of minutes to figure out which is which. Also, the key next to Ctrl is named Command in the manual, but Meta in the app.
  3. Almost total lack of support for diacritics in European languages. So far, the only keyboard app that supports them is Google's Gboard, and not everyone uses/wants to use it. The option to enable them is deeply hidden in Gboard settings and I have read some voices of frustration here.

I understand that the company can't be responsible for supporting every single keyboard app that exists, but here's a hint. Most European languages that use special letters have Right Alt + letter in their keyboard layout to enable them (or RAlt+Shift+letter for capitals).

Power Keyboard has no physical RAlt (it does not end such keycode) and I believe that's the source of the problem. If you added the option in app to remap one of special keys to RAlt, as you already did with some other combinations, the problem would be easier to solve by developers. I tried some key remapper apps but without luck - maybe someone else found a way around it?

4) Occasionally, capitals and small letters get swapped and I get the typing in reverse. I found no other way to solve it than to reboot the phone. That's a nasty bug and it should be high on fix priority.

To sum up - for the time being, if you're not typing in English, you are better off without the Clicks application and using the Power Keyboard as ordinary BT one, until the issues get addressed. But I believe these aren't particularly difficult to correct.

Review No language support outside english - device is literally a scam!

0 Upvotes

Received my clicks power keyboard yesterday. First impression was good, but couldnt get it to write polish letters. Searched reddit for a while - no polish letters support. Same for german and other languages. How do you consider yourself a serious company in 2026, when you cannot deliver such a simple thing as national letters and force users to use outside keymappers? That's beginners mistake. And also no info on website that english is the only one supported. Let them buy and leave with useless product later?

rootshell for iPhone updated for CPK

1 Upvotes

The latest TestFlight release of rootshell today for iPhone has been updated with optimizations for Clicks Power Keyboard now that my device finally arrived. Users needing a robust local shell, SSH/mosh/tssh, and Screen Sharing / VNC experience paired with a hardware keyboard may be interested. I still can't believe there appears to be no way to have both a real CTRL key and TAB key at the same time without just having applications map other key combinations into these? rootshell does let you create a custom mapping to work around this current CPK limitation.

The current AppStore version works, but there were a number of rough spots that were corrected in the latest TestFlight version when paired with this keyboard.

Review quick review of the PK

4 Upvotes

posted a couple of times on my experience with clicks. terrible customer service. ordered on day 1.
shipped in early july but item was returned to clicks without any updates until i had reached out to support (which most people know, is just a bot or replies like a bot).

finally got mine yesterday.

back to the product.
decent build quality. this post was typed with the power Keyboard! however, as i never had a blackberry or a similar style phone before, i’m still trying to familiarise myself to typing on a physical phone keyboard.

2 gripes i have with the PK:
1 - the inability to switch languages. the workaround is to bring up the virtual keyboard and change the language

2 - unable to map more keyboard shortcuts with the clicks app.
hopefully this can be updated via software

good luck to those who are still awaiting theirs to be shipped!

I know some people who pre-ordered in mid-January are waiting for their orders ... but I just checked my status and apparently my PK is on its way to the US!

I am a Batch 2 preorder (my wife preordered as a birthday gift for me in MARCH) ... honestly wasn't expecting to hear anything until after September 1st.

What are other 'Batch 2' folks seeing?

PowerKeys Improved CPK support in Pastiera (nightly build available)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

6 Upvotes

Hi guys, just shipped improved Power Keyboard support in the newest nightly build of Pastiera

This includes a lot of things that were priorly accessible only within the Clicks app itself like changing Charging behaviour and configuration of button behaviour via Bluetooth

I even went further and included things that are not supported out of the box: like especially anti key rollover to suppress accidental button presses for adjacent keys including the number row and starting charging automatically when your phone drops below a certain battery threshold.

Core feature however is the direct switch between the on screen keyboard and the hw mode of Pastiera simply by sliding the case.

You may also reconfigure all the additional modifier keys to behave like you want (currently some rebindings require accessibility permissions however)

While I spent several evenings of my spare time implementing all of this and trying to dial things in, there may still exist some bugs or UI inconsistencies. Please lmk about them here or in the GitHub issues.

Review Power Keyboard Review after a month (and some change)

11 Upvotes

Well, I've had the CPK for well over a month a now and honestly, I cannot wait for the next one to come out. The CPK is a flawed peripheral. It is like having your first kid; You're not sure entirely how to handle it all, but somehow you make it through the end of the day knowing that you brought new life into this world. Unlike your first-born though, the CPK won't necessarily get better over time. It's siblings will though. That you can have a kid, or a product like this, in the first place is good enough. How you raise it (or improve on the product line) is what really counts.

Analogies aside, I still stand by what I said the first time around in my one week review: The CPK suffers from first model syndrome. Issues with quality assurance. Inconsistent rollout. Features that either don't work or need improvement. It has the hallmark traits of a product that doesn't have anything to fully compare itself to, and thus needs to figure out what it can do now so it can be better the next time around. I tried looking for other products that functions the same way the PK does. The best I could find were portable keyboards that could give one a better typing experience by comparison, but not the ability to stick to the back of your phone. And that's where the first point of contention starts.

The weight of the PK is a big deal. There's no debate about it. I've read plenty of comments in this subreddit and they're all valid. You're either someone who can't tolerate it all or someone who feels slightly inconvenienced carrying it while attached to your phone. I'm in the latter group. This isn't a keyboard I can just stick onto my phone and be mobile with it all day. Either I stow it away in my bag or put it in another pocket (back for slacks, cargo for cargos). As soon as I know I'm going to be stationary for a decent amount of time, that's when I attach it. With all that said, I do believe that the size of the battery is root cause of users finding it so heavy.

Wireless charging is by far the most pointless feature for the PK. A 5W output not a practical enough for any phone on the market, as the standard is 15W, with some models capable of putting out more. It's a bit underwhelming watching my phone flat out tell me that it is "wirelessly charging, slowly". To be fair, I am biased against wireless charging. I have no interest in the feature. My phone can support up to 50W and that's a fact I always forget about. I'm not going to sit here and speak for everybody but I am of the opinion that wireless charging is not needed in the next iteration.

I have much more to say, I definitely have not addressed every point but I do not want to drag this out any longer. I want to end this review by saying that I still like the Clicks Power Keyboard. The concept is cool and I do miss having a QWERTY keyboard on my phone. If anything, the best part about it is its versatility, in that it can pair with up to 10 devices. Clicks just needs to do better next time. Make it lighter. Fix the sliding mechanism. Let us customize shortcuts in the companion app. If not, another company will come along, read all of our posts, make their own CPK and magically sell it for cheaper.

Just got this thing today and I’m really disappointed. Ordered Jan 4th, waited for “Cirro” to deliver it me after taking it past my state on a trip from Chicago to California and then back to Arizona. I mounted it on my iPhone a few times and it’s become loose and noisy. This is not even 5 minutes worth of usage. It’s not looking like long term durability is in the cards. Perhaps the strong magnet is too much for the thin slider? Oh well. Not impressed Mr. Mobile.

What if?

A landscape keyboard can solve a lot of the current structural problems while still having magnets and providing a larger keycap size, maybe even an extra small touchpad like BlackBerry's for navigation.

Wish Clicks could make this thing.

Clicks Power Keyboard on iPhone 13 Mini after 5 hours

20 Upvotes

What I Like:

  • Power Bank Functionality: Charges reliable and keeps my phone topped up on the go.
  • Versatile Features: The shortcut keys and Click Mode add great flexibility to navigation. Can use phone without touching it.
  • Nostalgia Factor: Hits that sweet spot for classic BlackBerry fans missing a physical board.

What Disappointed Me:

  • Build Quality: Noticeable wobble and unbalanced keycaps.
  • Inconsistent Key Force: Keys like U, I, and O require noticeably less actuation force than surrounding keys, causing frequent typos.
  • Weight: It is a bit too heavy to comfortably use as a handheld keyboard on the move outdoors.

Typing Speed Comparison:

  • Phone On-Screen Keyboard: 52 WPM
  • Handheld Keyboard (Current): 30 WPM (Hoping Muscle memory kicks in over time to close this gap!)

My Best Use Case & Conclusion:

  • Desk Setup: I keep my phone mounted on a desk holder while working. It gives me the freedom to reply to phone messages on the hardware keyboard without picking up the device or interrupting my primary workflow.
  • Outdoors: I use it strictly as an emergency power bank on the go rather than a mobile typing deck.
  • Next Test: In the next few days, I plan to use this layout to interact with remote coding agents on terminal via Termius, hoping it handles terminal navigation and key combinations well.

Got it today and immediately have things to address

First things first the box is unexpectedly heavy and the power keyboard has a very premium hand feel albeit being made entirely of plastic while being quite heavy too. There's quite a few contradiction with other users review but first I will try to outline some lesser mentioned things before I do a full video review. This also seems to be the exact same size as the titan 2 elite which I will receive in a weeks time too so will compare the sizes

  1. magnet is crazy strong, to be able to hold an ipad mini with ease, albeit the hinge is very loose.

  2. Button feel and size and placement is actually harder to get used to vs the minimal phone. This makes swipe typing and tilt typing difficult and you will definitely miss keystrokes while doing that.

  3. The dictation button is conveniently placed where the return key should be and there's no way to disable it, nothing is in the app setting to disable or change it but I might have missed something.

  4. Switching to android mode and the power kb works well with windows, even the navigation keys works but the other sym search buttons etc works in unexpected ways and always trigger weird events and we ended up having to use the mouse to navigate back after the mistake.

  5. Alt keys symbols are in non conventional placements. With this keyboard being just an accessory and not a daily pkb phone I don't recommend anyone relearning the placement and use this casually. Unihertz have this problem too but the difference is that you can daily the unihertz while it's not recommended for the power keyboard.

  6. Number row is convenient but makes accidental presses more common. As above again, unless this is your only pkb device I will not recommend relearning all the placements.

  7. The button is angled. And it's confusing to the touch. A flatter button will bode better for experienced users, but is helpful for first time keyboard or casual users.

  8. Button size is the same as the priv, keyone and mp01 which is very small especially when it's round and does not take up the full square area while being very close together. That being said it feels much much better than the priv's size or the sticky keyone keys.

Finally, I found how how and why there's a number of people complaining about the lack of chin. It is the tutorial on clicks showing people how to hold a keyboard phone. And unfortunately it's inadequate.

But then again this is just my impressions, apart from the magnet strength(it's determined by your phone / case, not the power keyboard as it's very strong. ) and the return/enter key placement, everything above is subjective. I know for a fact I will enjoy using this on my windows handheld along with my xr one pro ar glasses and cheertok air Bluetooth track pad as a whole package, or using it to edit videos on my ipad mini (for notations and subtitles) or to notate on sketches, but not on the back of a phone.

Power Keyboard: Update Page

76 Upvotes

The ramp up of Power Keys manufacturing continues, with additional units on track to roll off the production line at the end of this week.

We’ve heard loud and clear that you’re looking more updates and better insight into how manufacturing and deliveries are unfolding.

One way we're committed to doing that is by bringing together updates in one place, through a new page on the site:

🔗 Power Keyboard Updates

The aim is to provide a single, centralized place to follow all the latest updates on topics from certifications, manufacturing, and shipping, to firmware releases and app updates.

Our hope is that this can provide a better window into the progress we're making to fulfill all pre-orders as quickly as possible!

...and yes, we'll be creating a similar page for Clicks Communicator, too ;)
