This is a bit long.. also, I will loose the ability to use my rugged case or any case for that matter, and with that length it’ll be more prone to getting dropped (or stolen if you put your phone in your back pocket), and if you decide to keep it home and only use it when you are comfortable on your couch, you still need to get into the hassle of attaching it and even removing your case, risk damaging your lightning port from how frequent you will do it, all that to use it for .. a minuet of texting? I don’t think so. Unless the physical keyboard is properly designed and integrated within the phone form factor, it will be another gimmicky toy you will only use it for few weeks at max.
