Hopefully not as a slideout. My wife is handicapped and don't manage fiddly slideouts. She is happy with Blackberry Key2 style keyboards.

- nfriedly 6y agoThere's renderings on [1] and [2] and prototype photos on [3] and [4] that makes it look like more of a clamshell / laptop shape with the phone screen and keyboard folded against each other when it's closed. Kind of like a tablet with a keyboard case. Apparently the keyboard will also have a 22Wh/6000mAh batter in it.

- _nalply 6y agoThanks. What's needed: no fiddly mechanics like folding or sliding out. The keyboard of the Blackberry Key2 is perfect.
