Help I make a lot of mistakes on the Note 5 Keypad

I'm not sure why but when I type on the Note 5 keypad I always make a lot of mistakes.

The Note 3 keypard I thought the best, it felt very smooth and I could type very fast and accurately. Then the Note 4 wasn't bad either.

But now onto the Note 5 I can't type a sentence without making at least 2 mistakes.

Does anyone else have this problem? I can't put my finger on the cause.

Yes. This!

If I were to hazard a guess, I would attribute it to the word-prediction. Whatever it is, it is VERY annoying. Some sort of visible slowdown. Clearing data on the keyboard app seems to help for a very short time but then it comes back to its annoying self.
 
I'm on the same boat. I feel like it tries to correct "mistakes" which weren't mistakes to begin with. I tried to stick with the stock keyboard for a while, but I went back to the Google Keyboard. I've also used Fleksy and Swiftkey, but Google Keyboard IMO is the best.
 
I'm getting the same issues with the oem and Swiftkey keyboards which seems strange being that the Swiftkey keyboard should have over two years of my typing on it.
 
I agree my typing had gotten atrocious. I hate to switch off the Sammy keyboard due to the number row but the mistakes are getting annoying. The Google keyboard is awful looking but performs very well.
 
I've used it also and I'm getting a ton of mistakes too. The weird thing is, it changes words that are correct for strange choices. For example, it changes 'for' to 'fir' all the time. Just to keep it interesting it charges 'fir' to 'for'.

I just switched back toSwiftKey after numerous buggy updates,a lot in common with some of the bugs mentioned here w/the stock keyboard.
Seems the most recent update is doing quite well,it was a strange 2-3 months not using SwiftKey.
