    Tbf, it would have been better if it was slide out, phones are already long enough, adding a keyboard to the bottom just makes them ridiculous to use.

      It must be awkward to hold and type with it all the way on the bottom. Like when tablets are bezeless and there’s no way to hold it without touching the touch screen.

      Slide out on the long length would be nice. like a little laptop.

        I have some rough sketches to build my own for an older pixel + a dac to have a jack back. But i never was able to find a flat cable usb c that would break out all wires. So i had to scrap the project unfortunately.

        Didn’t they make those like 20 years ago? Or ten? I don’t know. Sounds familiar. But it wasn’t a case, it was part of the phone itself.

            A case like that for a Galaxy S is exactly what I want.

          Ten feels recent, but yeah I remember that being pretty common in the mid to late 00’s

      A slide out keyboard on that fold would be pretty sweet. Yeah it would also be pretty thick… But cool

    I don’t text that often to buy a separate keyboard that makes the phone the size of the Eiffel tower.

      Is that a 90s tv remote-shaped massive phone or are you happy to see me?

      Ah, both? What are the odds.

      I want a Sidekick again. I was actually wondering if any of these clicky cases will have that swivel keyboard.

    I would love this if they made a slide-out version. Phones are gigantic already, adding another chin to them just makes them entirely unpocketable. The weird one here is the one for the Razr+. I daily a Razr+ and the whole reason is that it folds into a compact size, why would I add this thing to the bottom??

    After all this time I’ve become so used to glide typing that I don’t see any value in this tool. But I guess there’s a market for it. So enjoy

    I’ve seen multiple ppl review them and say they are complete shit.

    The lack of staggering between the rows would drive me nuts. Fuck that…
