Speedy Fleksy keyboard will be pre-installed on new ZTE smartphones

Fleksy, maker of the popular third-party Android and iOS keyboard of the same name, recently announced that it has teamed up with ZTE, one of the world's top 10 smartphone makers. As a result, from now on, new ZTE handsets will feature Fleksy as their default keyboard (of course, users will be able to change it if they want).

In addition to a seamless typing experience, Fleksy also provides emojis, stickers, GIFs, and a custom theme builder - which will allow ZTE users to customize the look of their keyboard.

Initially available as a paid application, Fleksy is now free to download on Android and iOS (though it comes wit in-app purchases). Fleksy prides itself for being the fastest virtual keyboard in the world, and there's a Guinness World Record for the "Fastest time to type a text message on a touch-screen mobile phone" that backs up this claim.

This year, ZTE released several interesting smartphones (including the Axon Pro), and it looks like the company has big plans for 2016, when, among other handsets, it could launch a Snapdragon 820-powered Nubia Z11. It remains to be seen if all upcoming ZTE smartphones will have Fleksy pre-installed (instead of just certain models).
