Clicks Communicator is phone purpose-built for taking action and communicating in a noisy world with deeper context, versatile input and greater control in a compact design.
The biggest red flag is it’s a lot of the same folks who put out fxtec pro and that was a bit of a shit show, I’m excited but I’m sure as fuck not going to preorder
I heard that the designers of that phone were involved with the original Clicks, but it’s kind of an over-generalization to say that because those guys are involved with this by-now well-established company, that this will turn out to be some kind of rip-off scheme. Clicks Technology have delivered on every promise they have made to this point. Even if their products aren’t for everyone, and even if (in my experience) the first generation have some serious issues with wearing down too quickly, they absolutely do make products, they do feel good to use, they do what they say, and there’s no reason to doubt they can deliver on this next one.
Apparently there’s a tech YouTuber by the name of MrMobile who is also apart of this. I only recently heard of him through MKBHD so I would like to think that there’s some accountability there but honestly you really never know.

They have other hardware they’ve built and shipped for years, just a keyboard case not an entire phone but that seems to be positively received

I didn’t know about that. Just found this about fxtec. I guess it’s smart to be cautious.

Yeah I’m in now way trying to point and panic. But after going through the debacle with fxtec I personally will be exercising caution
That said this device looks like a dream especially if I can get lineage on it
Hiw do you know it’s those people? What’s your source? Fxtec sure was a letdown. Not a complete scam like the Turing Phones, but almost…
Some of the same people
This medium does a good job of saying kind of my thoughts https://medium.com/@markheijnekamp_41506/clicks-communicator-will-likely-fail-b4f450e556b4
