Reviving a Timeless Design
At this year’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, Clicks Technology unveiled its innovative take on the classic BlackBerry smartphone, the Clicks Communicator. This device is designed to cater to individuals who heavily rely on their phones for work, such as texting and emailing. The Communicator’s design is reminiscent of modern-day BlackBerry models, featuring a screen for message viewing and response, and a tactile, touch-sensitive keyboard below.

The Clicks Communicator is not just a modern-day reimagining of the BlackBerry. It boasts several innovative features that set it apart from its competitors. One of the standout features is the ‘Signal Light,’ a customizable light-up button on the side of the phone that can be tailored with different colors and light patterns to indicate messages from specific people, groups, or apps.
Additional features of the Clicks Communicator include customizable back covers that can be easily swapped, a 3.5 mm headphone jack, a physical SIM card tray in addition to an eSIM, expandable microSD storage of up to 2TB, and a tactile switch for turning airplane mode on or off.
The Clicks Communicator may also appeal to users seeking to distance themselves from modern-day smartphones, with their addictive social apps and games. The company has partnered with the Niagara Launcher to provide access to Android apps. With the Signal Light, users can safely ignore their phone unless they see a critical notification come through.
Clicks Technology has shared a new hands-on video showcasing its pre-production hardware and internal software as a preview of what’s to come when the phone begins shipping in the fourth quarter of this year. The company aims to provide a more in-depth look at the Clicks Communicator’s features, such as the Signal Light, Prompt Key, Message Hub, touch-sensitive keyboard, and more, in future videos.
