Use the swift keybord trial from play store it is awesome specially the split mode stock keyboard is no where near when it comes to split mode compared to swift
Hackers keyboard. Its a tossup between that and stock. Having to switch to symbol sucks, whereas long press serves as a shift key on hackers. Hackers obviously lacks handwriting input, which is a nice feature on stock. that's the only thing I miss with hackers though.

I'm quite happy with the Swype keyboard. It has both a Split and Mini keyboard built in. Im dearly in love with the mini keyboard, only gripe is that I can't move it around the screen as much as I would like too. Being able to Swype with the pen and not trying to hack out letters is key.

I have just installed Kii keyboard from the market, I usually use Swift key and would only have installed any new keyboard similar too it.
All I can say is, this keyboard will give Swiftkey a run for its money, it is currently in beta and available in the play store and has similar features with a ton more. You can choose various keyboard styles, predictive suggestions similar to Swiftkey, you can add arrows and make numbers independent of long pressing.
I am currently using the ICS layout. Give it a shot, you won't be disappointed. The developer also has an active thread on xda forums, I think it was under android general and in the apps section.
One thing to bare in mind is that you have too enable Swype functionality through the settings and is labelled " gestures" I'm still messing around with it as there are tons more options that I still need too discover.

After review of the play, i did it wrong. The s-pen switcher app works on my 8013 with german 4.1.2 i just installed it wrong. Now im using hackers jeyboard and switching to factory writing keyboard when i pull the pen out. I will still try other keyboards but so far i really like hackers keyboard cause its like a regular keyboard.

Thanks. I use Swiftkey on my phone, but I've reverted to using Ultra Keyboard on my Note because the tablet version of Swiftkey doesn't have arrow keys. I miss the word prediction, though. Kii might just work!

yeah i like the stock keyboard but the handwriting detection puts all first letters in capitals or it sometimes repeats phrases in one sentence, crazy bug that, i don't like the fact that i can't use the in built spelling feature without turning on the predictive text, i currently use the jellybean pro keyboard, nice and simple, i don't like swift key keyboard, hackers keyboard is very good though and it's free too.

Please make sure you post why you use it and what you think about it.
I've been using swift key for two months and it is extremely accurate and fast. Two says ago i've switched to Swype and now i'm addicted to typing in this forum.
Swype is really fun to use and also very accurate.although no matter which way you look at it,I don't think tracing with one finger can be faster then typing with two thumbs unless you are not familiar with the keyboard..
Sent from my XPlay using XDA App.
if Play had better touch screen (say 10fingers,or like blackberry) SwiftKeyX would be GODMODE
i use SwiftkeyX
But with the very weak XPlays screen its not upto its full effect.
It's already God mode...or corrects you're words even if you miss the keys, so it's ultra fast when inputting something.

The HTC_Ime mod is my fave keybord. I could'nt live without it
I use swype beta, it's very nice.
Earthshine0 out-
I have been using Swype for the past few weeks and I got to say that its the best in my opinion, and once you get used to it is when you see the difference in speed + accuracy compared to touch keyboards.
The only thing it lacks for me is the support for arabic keyboard
Though my first choice was swype, but now I prefer Hacker's keyboard because it provides all the possible keys which are normally present on a generic computer keyboard in landscape mode. Prevents hassle to search through alternate keys to find special characters. And obviously it provides suggestions, corrections and many more features.

I type way faster in portrait mode over landscape even though landscape has bigger size keys.I got so uses to typing portrait already.

Swype is the best . Its fun to use and is miles faster then normal typing once you are used to it.
I'm a huge fan of Swype, but I am curious to try the others listed here.

Definitely be careful about that. I ruined my Droid's digitizer from either sweat or a random raindrop. The far left side of the screen is completely unresponsive to touch, from the soft search key all the way up.
I guess I'm the only one here using Gingerbread Keyboard. Gets the job done, accurate word predictions.
Not only one, me too uses original GB keyboard, but I would use HTC ime, but it FC once its installed, so uninstall ...
Anyone using T9 Trace? I've been trying to install it using files from other phone roms. At the moment it seems to be installed, but after selecting the keyboard in "input method", bringing up the keyboard will force close it
my choice is iphone keyboard
SlideIT is a Swype knock off..

I just want to know is there any keyboard which is better than Swype in matter of recognition and word deletion/correction?
ICS keyboard is the best one I've seen so far for android, as I'm a really fast typer coming from IOS (vest keyboard over all), I installed ICS keyboard from the play store and set the auto correct to aggressive so as I type every few words my eyes just look to the screen to see if the keyboard auto correct wrong any words then I correct it manually or just continue talking.
PS. ALWAYS READ WHAT YOU TYPE BEFORE HITTING THAT ENTER BUTTON, BECAUSE WHEN YOU DON'T, WE GOT SITES LIKE DAMNYOUAUTOCORRECT.COM.

Swiftkey 3 has the best word prediction and correction that I've seen.
But the current Swype beta is close to it.
Both will get better the longer you use them
I can enter in text faster using Swype beta than Swiftkey.
Even faster again if I use the S Pen.

Swift key is one of the best in terms of prediction. But sometimes I find it a bit laggy.
I'd liked Swift Key 3 but it does not support swyping input on keyboard guys.
I liked the way it recognizes and corrects words.
I used to love Ultra Keyboard...but it doesn't work properly now on ICS....gets force closes...
I prefer Swiftkey 3. My flatmate prefers swype.
Pretty much everyone I know uses either swiftkey or swype.
new swype beta also has word prediction.
I have found that the standard ICS keyboard is best primarily, in addition to it being very accurate, It allows for speech recognition where you do not have to speak all at once- you can take breaks between words without any problem, whereas swype does not. Be sure to enble personalized recognition in settings as it does not do this manually. IT MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE AND I DONT EVEN HAVE A WEIRD ACCENT.

You can flow couple of words at the same time, which is awesome, and you can enter ?/! very fast!
Samsung keyboard. Only one with swipe, handwriting and number row. AFAIK.
For me the Samsung continues input is a very superior option. Even with fast and sometimes inaccurate swiping it manages to get it just right most of the time. One of the best keyboards I've used. It's just so fast and accurate.

Samsung keyboard memorize your frequently used sentence even. You enter the first word and it will keep predicted the entire sentence. Love the default one with continues input
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
The default keyboard is the best IMHO. Every other keyboard, irrespective of its benefits, leaves out the benefits of Note 2: lacking in s-pen support etc.
The only irritation with the default keyboard is that there is no autocorrect. I have to manually choose the correct word from the list and it doesn't autopick the selected words when space is pressed.
For me samsung the best.
Anyone find a way to enable Swift Key or Swype tablet modes? One of the best options on the default keyboard is that it has one-handed control. Swype and swift key have this mode as well but only for tablets. I miss easily swyping symbols. Perhaps the only way is to root and change the DPI?

I have been using SwiftKey since it first came out. Would try others but always came back to SwiftKey. For typing or swype, I just am not getting comfortable with the stock keyboard but would hate to lose the s-pen button. I will be a very happy camper if SwiftKey adds support for the s-pen.

SwiftKey 3 for me, since I type both English and German text, and the keyboard recognizes (and makes suggestions for) both languages at the same time.
Been using SwiftKey 3 tablet version for a while now.
Have to say it's the best I've ever used.
And it works very nicely with my 240 dpi mode.
Also nice keyboard when in landscape mode
I alternate keyboards randomly!

Swype is the reason for me to stick with Android, but their latest beta is ****ed up with dictionary issues, so I tried latest SwiftKey Flow Beta, and it has some issues as well, so for now it's Samsung's default keyboard with continuous input. But I'm keenly waiting for the next beta of Swype, which is coming shortly as per their mod.

If you are the person who is a tap to type and swipes occasionally, then Swift Key hands down or TouchPal X which has been recently updated and is now a contender
If you prefer to swype and have the most forgiving swype experience, then I would go swype & dragon all the way.
FYI.... I've bought them all and tried all them. Ultra Keyboard, Swype, Swiftkey, Kii Keyboard, TouchPal, SlideIt, google keyboard, Etc.
Good luck
Just wish swift key had a dedicated number row.
Touchpal FTW
sent from state where marijuana is NOT illegal ! now Free
tried all, for swiping, swype reigns
I never tap to text anymore and have been using the swipe method for texting and typing on my smartphone for sometime now, and I have tried all the major and most minor keyboards out there including buying the paid version of several. After testing and comparing them all, and still doing so, my opinion is swype is still the best keyboard for swipers. it intergrates everything better and just works. It's by far the most accurate and easy to edit if it does get it wrong. Though the others are good keyboards, for me, I always lose functionality when I don't use swype.
I keep trying the others though.
Currently using Google keyboard, free and it works well, will try swype keyboard and a couple of others..
I personally prefer Swype, I like the way you can copy and paste with just gestures. Swiftkey is not bad I suppose, however it does not support Chinese input which I use on a daily basis.

Stock Google one or swiftkey are the ones I fall back to
I have to say the Google Keyboard is my favourite.
I used to use Swype back in the day, but when Google brought out their swipe keyboard, I found it much more friendly. I recently tried the Swiftkey swipe keyboard, which I like to some degree, but the one drawback is when it incorrectly guesses the word you swiped, you have to hit the backspace, then it only gives you 3 options, none of which ever seem to be the correct word. I prefer the feature of the Google keyboard where you can long press on the central word it suggests and then it gives you a grid of like 20 words it thinks you typed. That is the best feature for me.
I really like the stock Google keyboard.
TouchPal X is the best no doubt.

I also prefer the standard predictions in thumb. I find swiftkey (2nd choice) gets a little wonky after a few months.
