Total guess but,

Try something like Google's gboard rather than whatever shite keyboard Samsung has foisted on you perhaps? Opera being Opera it wouldn't surprise me if it was actively blocking something due to privacy concerns.

Have enabled gboard and that seems to have fixed it.
Thank you.

I use opera on mobile for browsing the net, but also use SwiftKey keyboard as my default device keyboard across the whole device...

...as Google keyboard sucks donkey nads.

Actually I'm being dramatic... Googles keyboard is OK, certainly better than most... It's just not as good as SwiftKey.

I've used Swiftkey for years. I suggested gboard as it's likely to be inbuilt.

@cougar

Yeah agree... But on a Samsung phone, the default keyboard will be the Samsung keyboard, which is likely some bastardised version of the vanilla Google keyboard.

I'm not sure opera browser even has its own keyboard? It will just use the default keyboard for the device /OS?
