I really wanted to like it but...the KB sucks!

[Big D]

I had every intention of giving that KB every bit of the benefit of the doubt but, it just plain sucks.

I can not imagine what they were thinking when they signed off on that.

Almost unuseable.

 

[jjprusk]

I agree - it just adds weight to the phone.

 

[cLovis_ll]

i adjusted to the KB just fine but in reality i rarely use it anyway since the
virtual KB is good..

to each hos own i guess..

I've slid it out a few times but have never really used it. The top row is too hard for me to use....my fat fingers keep hitting the edge of the screen.

Wish they'd offer a version without the physical keyboard....

 

[REMilk]

I have no problems when using the slide-out keyboard. I find it easier to use than the touch screen.

love the keyboard...awesome option.

use it more and you will see it's a breeze to use....

 

[ZeRo_C0oL]

You get used to it, really.

 

[godanigo]

I love the keyboard. Wouldn't have picked the phone if it didn't have it.

 

[Big D]

Man.

I have been putting in some serious work on that thing and it's just not clicking for me.

I shall persevere.

 

[Zippster]

Rarely use it so not sure I have to get used to it. Virtual has suited almost all my needs np.

yes you shall : )

It really grows on you..kind of strange

I use it about half the time, I thought I would use it all the time but I find for short messages I can use one finger on either the portrait or landscape virtual keyboard. But for longer messages I'm still faster with two thumbs on the slide out keyboard. I don't like it as much as my old Curve, but I'm still glad the Droid has it.

For me, the keyboard was the reason I finally went to this smartphone to replace my old flip phone. It certainly could be a lot better, but I personally still need physical buttons for now...

 

[Trever1t]

I have no issues with either one and love having the option to use one or the other. I have fat fingers but find both keyboards to be very intuitive

 

[mwinne]

I love it, one of the reasons I picked the droid. I use all 3. Love that I have a choice.
