Normally most people would just go for Google Pinyin Input. Easy and straight forward. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?...utmethod.pinyinBut I always prefer this one. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?...rd.touchpal.oemThis is the Touchpal taken from HTC device. Lightweight no advertisements at all. The keyboard size is large and comfortable to use. I tried so many Chinese Input Keyboard and I always came back to this one.

QUOTE(mactreouser @ Apr 10 2017, 05:58 PM) Wow...appreciate your responses! More than agree, Touchpal seems the best for Chinese yet English input, especially the features! But, It Quite Heavy, causes a lot of Slow Factor even hang for seconds! (You Agree?) Which vesion you are using? the HTC version one? Or the regular version one? If you haven't used the HTC version, go try it first. It's definitely better & faster than the regular version. As a matter of fact, I am using it since months ago. it never slow down and it never hanged. This post has been edited by Max2006: Apr 10 2017, 06:14 PM

QUOTE(mactreouser @ Apr 10 2017, 07:03 PM) Oh? So HTC's version is different to the downloaded version? yes. The features are still the same, but faster and smoother. You uninstall/disable your current touchpal, go here to download the HTC version. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?...utmethod.pinyintrust me. it's much better than the other touchpal versions.

QUOTE(mactreouser @ Apr 10 2017, 07:10 PM) Max, just checked! I'm using this version, yup it's fast and stable but the features not as good as touchpal as I've mentioned before. Don't you agree? Like no suggestion words when keying in Google Search...URL...etc Oh I see. Ya. There's pros and cons for each other. I thought you want the speed, but I guess you are not satisfied with the features. haha. I think those most popular ones already being mentioned above. Google Pinyin Input Touchpal Swiftkey Baidu Just go with the one you feel comfortable with. As for me, I want the speed, fast typing speed. So I choose Touchpal. Features are less important to me.

Since it's free afterall, then no harm to try it. You can uninstall it if you find it isn't suit your need.

QUOTE(mactreouser @ Apr 11 2017, 12:55 AM) Great point! So fart so good (best) from your usage experience? Yes. I personally tested all the chinese keyboard apps. And I found out touchpal is the fastest one. When I pressed the button, the alphabet shows up instantly! I tried swiftkey before, it's ok but slower than Touchpal. I also tried Google one, closed enough, but the buttons are too small. So I stick to touchpal. IMO, there's no "the best keyboard app" in the world. You must try and find the one that suit you.
