Thanks for the many comments here! To address three recurring points:

1. I do not want a physical keyboard for a tablet. In part this is because the resultant form-factor would be far less practical when filming (for example, where I use the tablet between a PC screen and keyboard, as shown in the video). More fundamentally, the reason I got a tablet in the first place -- as discussed in the video -- was to type on a touchscreen to help with my RSI. Touchscreens offer close to zero force typing, and also slow typing speed a little, and so help considerably with RSI over time. I also travel a lot with the tablet, and want to keep the weight and bulk to a minimum.

2. Over many years I have tried a lot of Android onscreen keyboards. And I have now looked at a couple more following suggestions below! :) Sadly none of them provide what I am looking for. All are designed for phones. It is indeed very telling that not one of the keyboards that have been mentioned below is displayed for tablet use in the Play Store. Did I look at creating my own custom Android keyboard? No. Life is too short, and this really should not be necessary.

3. I am aware that larger (c.13") iPads have a much better onscreen keyboard. This has no bearing on anything in this video, where I am comparing Androids keyboards and the standard iPad keyboard. But it is very sad that Apple do not provide the option to use their much better keyboard on all iPads.

“Thank you floor, for catching that!”😂😂😂

I bought an iPad 16 last year to use for a teleprompter... and now I wind up using it for projects as a little flat computer for notes and looking up information like schematics. Very handy!

This is February 1st, not April 1st.

Wonderful that you kept a device in use and out of landfill for so long. Now also raising awareness that it can be done.
Thank you!

"The Apple Price Premium is not as great as it once was". So true, and the very reason why I purchased an M4 Macbook Air last year.

Video reminds me of a 1970s late night Open University transmission.

I’m astounded you can write that much on an onscreen keyboard.

I never thought I'd see Mr. Barnatt take a bite from the forbidden fruit. I guess I can't blame him, given the history of Android tablets. My mom, who hated smartphones, was always goofing around on her iPads.

Fascinating stuff, thank you. As usual, you are laser-focussed on making the technology work for you rather than the other way round.

2:19 The floor getting a shoutout is excellent. 😂

It still warms my heart he is liking all the comments 🧡

11:10 On the stock Apple keyboard, I’ve been using the key flick feature, which allows you to swipe down on keys to enter things like punctuation or numbers directly without having to go back and forth with the letter and symbol pane

Thank you for all your great videos -  this keyboard is just what I have been looking for too

I initally got an ipad to make music on, but it's become the main device i use. i do graphics & webdev (& a bit of editing) for work, so it can handle most of my workload too.

Thanking the floor... cracked me up and stopped me in my tracks!

Next episode: Chris vibe codes a better Android keyboard app 😎

this guy makes any device unboxing (even if you hate it) very interesting. didnt skip!

“Always good to have holes to let noise out “ 😂😂

I wanted to take the time to tell you how much I have enjoyed your videos! It's always an absolute joy when your videos pop up in my feed, and your way of expressing things is absolutely joyful! Thank you for making these videos, and I can't wait to see your next one!
