I agree, Swype is worth giving a try.

Swype is also available for Nokia's Symbian (and their little used Meego too) and if I recall correctly Swype's first appearance was on Symbian. But, of course, that was limited to phones and Symbian is now recently discontinued. However, there are still tens (hundreds?) of millions of Symbian phones around (I still use one, mainly because it meets my personal preferences of having one of the best cameras on a phone available and its small form factor).

My own personal experience was that in earlier Symbian days I found Swype to be my preference, but as Symbian developed their keyboard and its associated software auto-prompting word completions the standard keyboard became easiest to use. But that just a personal preference and, as said, I would go along with the suggestion that Swype is worth trying.
I'm using a Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4. The screen is beautiful and the size is perfect. The Amoled screen on the Tab S is brighter than the screen on the pro.
