The bridge between Swype and swift key is shrinking
In the past, with a smaller phone I use to use Swype(FlexT9) almost exclusively. For me swiping its much faster on smaller screens and slower the bigger the screen gets. With my note I'm finding I'm using both equally. However what I find most interesting is that both keyboards now offer the same features.
Both have Swype, auto correct, and forward predictive text. Each have their strengths but I'm wondering note if one will start to come out a winner now that they both offer the same features.
For me the real saving grace of SwiftKey is you can buy it on the market, but if all all the phone manufactures ship with Swype, I'm not sure that advantage is enough of an edge.
