I think the concept of not wanting to use touch keyboards on a smartphone is wildy more popular than actually wanting a hardware keyboard on your smartphone. I.e. 900 upvotes is probably more to say people dislike where they have to settle more than many liking the idea (and practice) of actually changing their choice of compromises. It'd be so frickin' convenient but, at the same time, so is basically any other concept that would take up a ton more of your pocket/hand space.

On that front I'm surprised Clicks doesn't have any options at all to have it double as an extra external battery. The size of the external battery case market is probably 50x+ the volume of the external keyboard market and that'd be a pretty unique differentiator in that segment. It's even something they responded to in their FAQ.
