Swype's ok, but I'd rather just hit my spacebar. The swiftkey 3 IS WORLDS better than anything out there as far as prediction.

Most of the time I'm typing a text, I just simply tap my space bar over and over. If I need to click the word, I do. I rarely type out the full word now..
 
Swyping to me is more difficult especially for certain words. I prefer to use the space bar also seems way faster to me and the new way of texting.

Same here, SwiftKey's word prediction & auto correct is way ahead of any keypad I've tried imo it's ahead of jellybeans 4.2 keypad also. Even though jellybeans keypad is one of the best its not better, the way the D-pad & number pad are arranged in SwiftKey is a no Brainer. It's arranged just like a real keypad & the when emailing someone it fills in all the @xxxx.com's you've ever sent or typed, anyway I'm waiting for SwiftKey flow!
 
I used SwiftKey and I think Ill be sticking with it
Is that the same keyboard that comes with Stock Jellybean?
 
Have tried a bunch of keyboards and my favorite is SwiftKey. It's the most stable of them all too. I love Swype too, but it's laggy sometimes on the gs3 browser.

I was originally a big swiftkey fan but they have major issues. It doesn't work in a LOT of apps. They claim its because the developers of those apps send a code not to display predictions in those places...but every other keyboard i tried does show predictions in those same places. Their flow beta also does not "flow" in all of those same places. To top it off the keys are very close together so mistakes are huge...their predictions are good but there are a lot of cases where it changes words you typed correctly to some other word, even if you go back and type it multiple times in a row...that's weird! One other really annoying thing is when they add the .com button on url search windows (google chrome etc) and everytime i go to type a space i get a ".com". Haven't found anything i like as much as iphone keyboard yet..closest is Smartkey i guess.
 
I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this or even noticed because everyone seems to be using swiftkey, stock JB, or swype beta, but the 4.1.1 JB update from Samsung brought actual Swype as a keyboard option. It was only a swipe/gesture lookalike in ICS and it was terrible. It never seemed to learn like real Swype does.

I used Swype beta on my old phone and loved it. I have been using the stock JB keyboard with gesture typing on my Nexus 7 and is better than the ICS default samsung keyboard was, but it is not as good as Swype. Give it a try even if you are happy with something else--It's already in there, no installation necessary.

Its amazing to me how crisp and responsive the actual Swype keyboard is in comparison to what I was using in ICS for the last couple of weeks prior to the JB update.
 
I actually really like go keyboard but it comes with too many different options so I've been using SwiftKey. I'll check this one out tho.

Love the Thumb Keyboard bc I got it for free from Amazon lol. I was in love with swiftkey3 but I decided to try out the Swype one that came with JB and I'm really really digging it.

Swiftkey Flow for now, but I must say I really do like the stock Android keyboard in 4.2. The swype like features aren't as accurate, but the layout is really nice.
