Swype is fully free whereas swiftkey hv a paid version also..
Swype is much better than swiftkey in my opinion...
Fired From My FireDevice.
I've been using Swiftkey 3 and it works fine. Its predictions are great, saves you from having to type a lot!
I used Swifkey 3 for 9 months on my Note 1. But after using the stock Samsung keyboard, I have decided to use it exclusively. It has both Swipe & prediction functionalities.
Touchpal keyboard for me.
I`am using SlideIT for years now, very happy with it :good:
thx
The stock Samsung keyboard has Swype and Swiftkey included.
Go keyboard.
stock samsung keyboard.
however i find it annoying how it doesnt auto select prediction with space bar..
I love Smart Keyboard Pro

You can select that option in the input options in the main settings menu
Guys..who ever has not tried Super keyboard Pro.. Please check and decide ...its awsome...way better than swift, Touchpal and SlideIT
I use SwiftKey mainly because of the great multi language support. I do wish it was more customisable.

I like the Samsung keyboard better. I found with Swiftkey I was auto selecting unintentionally more than not.

How can we make it do so? I'm considering a switch mainly for the excellent handwriting recognition with stock samsung keyboard.
If there is a way where we can switch keyboard automatically with s pen for handwriting then I'll keep using SwiftKey.
Please someone enlighten us, been wanting this to work since my first Note

The Samsung keyboard is seriously getting on my nerves so I'm looking for keyboard recommendations. Please post what keyboard you use and what you like/dislike about it. Thanks!
gingerbread free keyboard from the market is the best ive found, only thing is the letters dont have symbols like ? ! on them, but I can live with that for free
My new favourite keyboard is Perfect Keyboard! It is exactly as the name implies. Perfect.
Regards.

+1, free until beta expires in August.
Other good keyboards are Thumb keyboard and Smart Keyboard both of which I've used as well.
I perfer Smart Keyboard. Quite costumizeable. Try it and buy the pro version if you like it!

I'm new to swiftkey x beta and liking it a lot so thanks for the heads up.
But.... the correction and suggestions don't work in the stock email app which is a bit of a bummer. Its sooo much better than the stock samsung keyboard.
Might go ask on the swiftkey web page if no one here has any quick and easy fix.
Edit: Found this is common for after market keyboards on the i9100 email app Have also sent question to swiftkey
Wish there was an easy way to change the keyboard when in an app without going to home screen. On my i8000 running froyo i used to be able to hold the settings button the keyboard and the keyboard choices came up. Any way to access the choise of keybaord easily??????
SlideIT ftw.

+1 on that. It's simple and does what it's supposed to do well. Plus, if you search the I9000 forum, you'll find some nice skins, yes it's free and you can change the skin color!

Smart Keyboard has been my favourite for quite some time now. Plus I like the keyboard being a little longer as I find I hit the '.' so many times on the samsung keyboard and others. Its got a very good intuitive learning dictionary (think you have to turn it on first in settings).
Smart keyboard is great and has a lot of customization to it.
Personally love Swift Key. Can pretty much type a message only using the space bar.

My opinion atm is: Swiftkey X beta > SlideIT > Swype
I personally like Smart Keyboard pro the most. Also the gingerbread keyboard is good but not that good.
I don't know about Skype. I am trying to learn it but somehow it just seems bad..so slow and annoying. Just more practice needed?
+1 for smart keyboard. Tried the different keyboards when I got my nexus one and just felt that the smart keyboard where right for me. It has the feature that makes iPhone keyboard so great that it makes the letters bigger by prediction of what word you are typing "behind the scene"
Is there a way to get it to auto correct like Swiftkey? I tried all the settings but couldn't find anything like that.

Thanks for the tip, but I was looking to keep the S Pen typing feature. Like handwriting to text, I don't use it that much, but when I do it comes in handy

Hi
I noticed that the default Samsung keyboard does not auto correct when I am typing wrong words. I cannot even enable that in keyboard settings. Is there a way around this. Thanks

What about the default English keyboard that comes installed by default
If you want auto correction download a keyboard from the market that has it, such as swift key. The stock Samsung keyboard doesn't have the option.
Reading that this is a problem on the note 2 samsung keyboard? Any idea on solutions besides using a third party keyboard? I like the layout and looks... plus it changes for one handed op and has a small version for multi window.. I dont want to lose that... but geesh auto correct is big

It doesn't auto correct but it has the predictive text. That's about as good as its gonna get for the stock keyboard

I think it's a jellybean bug. There are 6 or 7 guys at work with S3s that are complaining about auto correct not working since thier update to jellybean. Try this though. Enable the native swype in keyboard settings and it should work, does for me anyway as long as I'm actually swyping instead of typing.
I am running Cyanogenmod 10.2 on my note 2 so of course the Samsung keybaord does not work, but does anyone can an idea of another keyboard that also has the numbers on top like the Note 2 keyboard that works on Cyanogenmod? Thanks in Advance!

Kii keyboard on Play has the option. I prefer it to Swift key.
TouchPal is only thing close. If it gets prediction working better then it will be better.

I tested both Kii and Touchpal, everyone will prefer a different keyboard, but kii fits my needs better, plus it has more features, Thanks to both of you for your replys

A.I and KII both have top rows for numbers; both are free on the Play store as well.

I dropped Swiftkey for this. The only annoyance is you have to teach it most chat slang and abreviated words. Other than that, the style and lay out with dedicated number row is what I'm loving about it.

What Version of Swiftkey are you using? because they did not had a dedicated row for the numbers... screenshot?
Use Android key board and change the lay out to PC.

Oh, excuse the confusion. I didn't mean Swiftkey had the number row. I was referring to the O keyboard that I linked above.
