As you are typing with the Touch keyboard, the text is displayed twice. Once in the keyboard top bar, and once in the text input box. That's twice as slow.

Touchpal only displays what is being typed on the keyboard and then when you click on the word or hit the space key it inputs it into the text input box.

All said, this means the Touch keyboard is twice as slow as Touchpal.

Personally I prefer the Touch keyboard and if it was possible to make it work similarly to Touchpal, that would be awesome. Does anyone know if this is possible?
I don't text much, but if you disable xt9 it should speed it up and give ya some screen back...

Re: Touchpal vs. Touch Keyboard.
I wish CooTek would make a layout that looks like the HTC one.

Re: Touchpal vs. Touch Keyboard.
yea, i'd like a different colored skin as well, this blue is kinda annoying me lol.

but on topic, I think the suggestion on customizing touchpal would probably be the best solution. I don't know if the double printing of the touch keyboard is really what slows it down (though I don't know what does, just speculation).

I actually just switched to TouchPal v3 (I tried v2 but I didn't like it, I don't know why) I like the seperate button keyboard layout. I can actually type pretty precisely with it, and with the predictive text I can also type sloppily if I want and it'll still come out with what I was saying. I've been using it for about

Re: Touchpal vs. Touch Keyboard.
i'm enjoying touchpal v3 so far, plus i just installed the default skin for it on my touch. it makes the UI alot better...

Re: Touchpal vs. Touch Keyboard.
i really like using the touchpal. it took quite a while to get used to but found it much more efficient.

OP: sounds like you might be looking for something like this: http://pocketcm.com/keyboard.php ? and then skin it?
