I used SwiftKey and took 40 seconds the first time I tried. Took 10 seconds in the second attempt(since it tries to correct the current word and predict the next word).

Having just gotten Swype on my android last night and noticing this was full of Iphones trying this, i tryed it too. I got to the 46 second mark by the time i was done, with zero mistakes. While this is certainly not the fastest time, i literally have been using swype since last night, so with less than a day of using it, i was already up to par with fast iphone typers.

Swype has a much easier learning curve. When I type normally on a touch screen it cmoes iut lkke thhid while swype worked pretty intuitively.
I’ll stick to my physical keyboard though, that I can do in 46 seconds.

I really don't like the iPhone keyboard. I think my fingers are too big

It took me 40 seconds on the iPhone (and that included 2 mistakes that I had to “fix”).

That was the same point I was trying to make. Great concept but skewed
video comparison.
