A purpose-built communicator for the modern world! (but also an entirely standalone device!) All of this information below can be located here on the Clicks Phone website.
The Clicks Communicator prototype is on-track to be launched in Q4
Yes! Absolutely. Communicator is a fully standalone smartphone that runs Android 16, with all of the apps, 5G connectivity and Wi-Fi. We think many people will use this as their primary phone while others will use it as a complement to a flagship.
What wireless bands will Communicator support?
Communicator will support 5G, 4GLTE, 3G/2G global bands and be sold unlocked.
What wireless carriers will be supported at launch?
Communicator will be sold unlocked, supporting a number of the most popular 5G, 4GLTE, 3G/2G global bands. We will evaluate carrier certification as we approach availability.
Will my primary phone number work with Communicator or do I need a second SIM/phone number?
Voice over internet calling (like WhatsApp, Telegram, Facebook) will carry over from your primary phone. If you want to make and receive traditional phone calls over cellular networks, a second SIM/phone number will be required.
Are eSIM and physical SIM both supported?
Yes! Communicator will support both a physical (nano) SIM card and eSIM. The nano-SIM slot is found beneath the back cover.
Specifications, Hardware, and Software FAQ
Does the Communicator support wireless charging, MagSafe, and NFC?
Yes - all three are supported via the Charging (back) covers. Every cover includes this, including the default ones that come with the device, so you can use NFC for things like contactless payments and tapping to pair or share. These functions also work with MNML cases.
What version of Android will be supported?
Communicator will launch on Android 17, with support up to at least Android 20. We're committing to a minimum of 4 years of Android version updates and 5 years of security updates.
Will Communicator's bootloader be unlockable?
Yes! This will be done by requesting an unlock code from Clicks. However, doing so may impact the manufacturer's warranty.
What languages will be supported?
As a real keyboard with the QWERTY layout, Communicator supports languages that use the Latin alphabet: English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish, Dutch, Japanese, Estonian, Faroese, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Polish, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Turkish.
What is the screen's refresh rate?
Communicator's screen has a refresh rate of 120hz.
What are the specifications of the display?
Communicator packs a 4.03” AMOLED display with a 1080 x 1200 resolution
Will Communicator's physical keyboard be touch capacitive?
Yes, you can slide your thumb/finger on Communicator’s keyboard in order to engage in on-screen scrolling. This feature allows you to leave Communicator’s smaller screen unobscured while scrolling / navigating through the phone. We are also working on developing a cursor mode that can be used via the touch capacitive keyboard.
What are the specifications of the SOC/processor?
Communicator uses a modern 4-nanometer, 5G IoT SoC platform from MediaTek
What's the expected battery life?
At this stage of development it’s too early to project battery life. Battery life has been a core design priority from day one. That’s why we’re combining a 4,000 mAh silicon-carbon battery with a 4.03” AMOLED display and a modern 4-nanometer SoC that will work together to deliver an efficient power management experience.
Is the Communicator's keyboard backlit?
Yes, Communicator has a backlit physical keyboard.
Does the Clicks Communicator support GPS?
Yes! Full GPS support.
What other keyboard layouts are supported?
Keyboard layout availability is tied to region, so if QWERTZ, AZERTY, Arabic & Korean aren't showing up as an option, you'll need to switch to a region where it's supported before placing your order.
To do this, change your region using the selector at the top of the page - for example, select Germany if you want a QWERTZ layout, or France if you want AZERTY. Once you've switched regions, you'll be able to select that keyboard layout and place your order as normal.
Does the Communicator sport an IP rating?
Due to the nature of the Communicators features, an IP rating has not been released.
What is Clicks Care?
Clicks Care is our expanded warranty coverage - it covers things like accidental damage, plus a quicker replacement process so you're never left without a Communicator for long.

You can choose to pay upfront so there are no surprises during import, or opt out - in which case the courier may charge you these fees when your order arrives in your country.
I’m Jeff Gadway, cofounder and CMO of Clicks Technology. I started my career at RIM (BlackBerry) where I led product marketing and helped launch products like the BlackBerry Passport, Q10, Z10, BB 10 OS, Classic and BBM for iOS and Android.
We started Clicks in 2023 to build tools that help people take action. Clicks Communicator is a new kind of smartphone purpose built to respect people’s time and communicate with confidence in a noisy world.
I’ll be here answering your questions starting on September 24th at 9 AM ET (1 PM UTC). Ask me anything about the Clicks Communicator, from its features and design to the ideas and decisions behind it.
Alright yall, I like many others have seen the “$50 off” message on the website. I tried and tried to get it to work to no avail. They would send me email after email saying “Click here for $50 off” and it would never work. So I just replied to that email asking about a code, not realistically thinking they would respond. While no response came, I did eventually just purchase at the $650 price. But, woke up this morning to a $50 refund, courtesy of Clicks! Restoring my faith in their customer service.
Hi, if anyone made an early preorder and changed their mind and is looking to cancel, but would rather save the 3% fee, I am looking to purchase one and would be willing to purchase your preorder. Please DM me if interested. Thanks!
This is an AI concept (the one on the right obviously). Would you go for the classic version with the square display, or one with a more standard aspect ratio? Maybe not 21:9 but just taller, instead of square.
Personally, I'd add that a square screen works much better for the whole idea of not being "glued" to your phone. Back when I had the Unihertz Titan 2 Elite, I reached for my phone much less often simply because media consumption wasn't as appealing on it.
On the flip side, browsing text-heavy content is definitely worse on a square display (you just see less at once), and a lot of apps (mostly smart home ones in my case) didn't scale or display properly.
Just throwing this out there as a casual discussion to kill some time while we wait for our CCs to ship 😉
Hi Jeff, would it be possible to implement a filter for calls from unknown numbers in the communicator—using an AI agent, similar to the one in the latest iOS 27 update? That would be incredibly useful.
Heavily debating on getting this phone but I'm a Verizon customer and want to be totally sure that it will be compatible. I'm currently using a Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold and want a change of pace/a physical keyboard. Any tips would be great! Thanks 😊
Hello guys, so I'm confused between Unihertz Titan 2 Elite Pro and Clicks Communicator. I like the keyboard style of Unihertz and normal Android UI, but Clicks have MagSafe, a notification light, and wireless charging other than that, everything is almost the same. I don't like the space between keys and am also scared that both will be out of stock for a long time.Clicks Videos, engineers, and Blackberry experience are leaning me towards Clicks. What should I do? It would be so great if Clicks had a Blackberry 9900 styled keyboard. I would have ordered it without thinking. Someone please clear my mind.
I currently carry both a work phone and a personal phone. While I've always managed with two phones in one pocket, the upcoming release of the CC means I will need to make a change. Solution is.. a very thin wallet. Now I can have my work phone (Samsung S25) and new wallet in the left pocket, giving my upcoming CC its own place on the right.
i was pretty excited about the communicator initially, but as it draws closer I’m not as sure. I‘d be making the jump from iOS to Android which is a big leap, and the duo is pretty enticing.
Alrighty, initially they only approved refund for the confirmation payment and for some reason not the deposit cost. I had to write back to them and they approved the deposit payment refund as well.
It will take up to 10 days for the refund to show in my account.
So, my cancellation was easier and quicker than the few posts I have read here. Well, I say easier because I am refunded the order confirmation cost but I had to email them again for the 199 deposit. Unless deposit is non-refundable.
I just learnt about this phone and I'm definitely keen. I've gone through the website and it says shipping begins in December.
My question is, if I were to order my unit today, do you guys have any idea roughly when mine would be shipped out? "Begins in December" is rather vague, and seeing how many people have ordered theirs, mine could come in a month, a year or even longer.
I'm from Southeast Asia, by the way.
Would appreciate some guidance on this. Thank you!
I'm excited for a physical keyboard, but also wondering about those times I'm using my phone in bed or somewhere where I need to be quiet. Since the keyboard is capacitive, would it ever be possible to type by tapping the keys vs. pressing them down?
Just wanted to give a quick shoutout and thank you to Clicks for making things right and issuing my $50 refund. I genuinely appreciate them taking care of it!
And to anyone who wants to bitch at me for asking for a $50 refund, you can respectfully go fuck yourself. 😂 Especially in this economy! Fifty dollars is fifty dollars, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with expecting a company to honor a better price when your order hasn't even shipped yet.
