- If I am reading correctly, Elfabio80 did not ask the same question.
I was specifically talking about the predicted word swipe up experience and when you mentioned that you experienced no such issue with GBoard it made me wonder if having GBoard installed solve the issue of failed predicted word swipe up gesture.anon(10387168) likes this.10-31-19 09:07 AMLike 1 - If I am reading correctly, Elfabio80 did not ask the same question.

- Nope but @Thud Hardsmack made me think it had an affect on the performance of the predicted word swipe up gesture using the physical keyboard10-31-19 10:01 AMLike 0

As some here love to boast/claim, that the KEY2 PKB is tolerable, if they aren't typing and swiping predicted words then that claim has no merit.
The PKB on the KEY2 is flawed/defective with the swiping of predicted words feature and that is indisputable, as it has been acknowledged by TCL/BlackBerry Mobile Technical Support.

You may give the swipe gesture a 3 out of 10, and I may give it a 7 out of 10. But there are still 9 other features to evaluate.
On a total score, I find the KEY² keyboard stands heads above anything else.Sporkguy3 likes this.11-01-19 09:20 AMLike 1 - Evaluating a keyboard is like giving a score of 1 to 10 on each of 10 features, and then adding up the total.

Bottom line this is the problem with PKB's in general.... even those that claim to be PKB lovers aren't happy with what there is. I keep hearing that the Passport or the Classic or the 9900 were perfect... yet even back then there were complaints as well.
I think for the swipe feature BB10 was better able to be "developed" to function best with that. Keyboard on it's own, might have been the 9900...
But size is now the big issues... KEY's might be the perfect balance, but they are more two handed devices than the 9900 was.11-01-19 09:33 AMLike 0 - Despite the numerous faults of the PRIV, the PKB was solid.

The KEYone and KEY2 flick gestures for word suggestions is pretty meh. I find that I have to find just the right amount of pressure and flick distance to get it to work right. A flick to long or too hard will result in me triggering one of the android home row buttons. Swipe left to delete is the only gesture I use on the KEY phones and it is awesome.
For me, the Passport was the perfect keyboard. Gestures worked great, key travel was perfect, I even loved the virtual number/character pad due to the three-row keyboard. What I would give to have that keyboard on an Android device!11-01-19 11:38 AMLike 2 - I acknowledge and admit the PRIV had a number of issues... my point was specifically related to the swiping of predicted words on the PRIV keyboard in comparison to the KEY2.
The PRIV was, and still is, flawless. The KEY2 has been flawed/defective since launch.

I don't swipe up, It is so much easier for me to simply tap the predicted word that comes up. It is quicker as well. One feature I use often if I write more than a couple of words and want to delete what I wrote, is to highlight what I want to delete and then hit the backspace key.11-01-19 11:47 AMLike 0 -
But as much as you would refer to the inconsistency in swipe recognition as a flaw on the KEY², I would refer to the unpleasant mushiness of the Priv keyboard as a flaw.11-01-19 11:50 AMLike 0
