Everyone uses a keyboard on his or her touchscreen device. There are many choices in soft keyboards, and they are all quite similar. But are they the same? Is it worth spending money to get a good keyboard? Why would I want to use anything other than the standard Android keyboard?
In this video, XDA Developer TV Producer TK attempts to answer those questions. TK shows off three applications, XDA Senior Member TouchPal’s TouchPal X, the premium SwiftKey app, and the default Android keyboard. TK compares their usability and functionality, and he gives his thoughts on these applications. Check out this keyboard app challenge.
