I don’t know whether QWERTY is good or bad. But it’s clear that the most people use it. If QWERTY is like regular shoes, then QWERTY Mini is simply like rain boots for a rainy day. Good luck.

Both with- and without-autocorrect have their pros and cons. This layout could also work well if predictive features are added later.
