swype looks promising at first, very nice button placement. lost of predictions appear.
but then i realize it doesnt predict next word very smart. many times it predict nonsense and unrelated words.
end up making more mistake.
swiftkey predict 3 words only, but many times those are the words i want to type next.
example i wana type "wan tan mee", after i type "wan", it predicts the next 2 word as the first option, knowing i always use this word. swiftkey also memorize buildings, location that i always type. another example, it predicts "canai" after "roti", and "lemak" after i type "nasi", it can also do "pasar" "malam", which is really good.
swype just doens't do that for me. i already used it for 1 week, should be enough time for it to learn my habbits.
it only predict normal english grammer, but not custom terms.
another thing i notice is swype might be using more battery.
swiftkey never appear in my battery usage. but swype appear to use as much as whatsapp in my battery usage.
swype no google voice shortcut, it uses dragon something for voice, which sucks.
the only downside of swiftkey is no chinese language. i need to switch to googel pinyin ime for chinese input. but thats not too troublesome for me since i rarely type chinese. swype can directly switch to chinese which is very convenient.
i think coz one uses word prediction whereas the other is word correction.but then i realize it doesnt predict next word very smart. many times it predict nonsense and unrelated words.

i personally like word correction over prediction coz so far, most of my words dun get predicted correctly (not just with Swift, but with others too) <-- maybe i just dun think & speak logically... hahaha...
for me, correction on swype is one of the best. press on word and a list appears. just need to select the correct word. plus, i really swype rather than type. so, swype is much easier for me. i could never seem to get that continuous sentence thing on swift to work (where you just swipe over the space to enter a space in your sentence <-- errr, this one is swiftkey, right?!?)
but ya, to each, his own. i know many who say they type better than swipe, etc... some even used to only the old numeric style kinda keyboard
so... as long as the smartphone can let us choose the keyboard we like, its a good smartphone. oops... i just whacked other brands...
