Just tried and got 72wpm with 97% accuracy without looking… though honestly I think not looking is a bit pointless, since the keyboard is so close to the text anyway. It’s not nearly as jarring as looking at your keyboard when typing on a desktop.


fwiw: 46wpm 80% droid, 31wpm 80% iphone S, 120wpm 98% laptop

47wpm 86% droid with glide disabled (but I'm not dissing glide, it just gets in the way in pure-tap situations)


Yeah your laptop/desktop speed is faster than mine, I’m somewhere between 100-120wpm there. I wonder if my faster phone speed is due to my weird typing style where I use my left thumb and my right index finger? heh
