I feel swipe to type should be an option on laptops. Using keys to type is slow compared to swiping across alphabets. Remove the physical keyboard and put a 6" to 10" lcd with touch input on it.

    Not at all.

    Honestly, if you think one finger swiping is faster and better than ten fingers on a keyboard I would suggest you spend some time leaning to type.

    It’s only slower to you because you haven’t learned how to type properly. If you sat down and learned, you’d be typing on a keyboard much faster than you swipe on your phone. Much less typos, too.

    You’d have to be really bad at typing for that to be true.

    Tell us you don’t know how to type without telling us you don’t know how to type

    I love swipe gestures on the phone and use it almost exclusively and I’m pretty fast with it… but in no world is it even close to the speed of a keyboard.
