[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] mustafa811:
update 2 : i posted a video on youtube for the lowered sensitivity of pocophone f1 8.11.29 and compared it to note 9 touch to settle the debate

update : about the touch there seem to be a debate whether it is improved or not .. i just did a reset and discovered that by default the google keyboard has no borders and full gesture is not enabled .. so if you set the theme of the gboard to enable key borders and enabled full screen gesture you will definitely feel the lower edge space bar problems and that allover sensitivity is lowered

thought to write my initial impressions about 8.11.29 open beta software .. it was released couple of hours ago and i updated from 8.11.15 with ota and no reset done

hdr still works in youtube

youtube full screen support is there

hevc 4k60 10 bit files now works flawlessly on mi video app

camera noise during low light conditions improved but on the expense of details as there is some kind of photo softness introduced

there is a small bug too which is still there google keyboard key-presses sound is mute every restart and you have to turn it off and on again to enable

PUBG touch is fixed

my analysis for the touch :

1st they reduced touch sensitivity a bit and i think this was done as some people complained from over-sensitivity with cables touching screen and stuff .. the problem i see this is normal and it didn't deserve to lower sensitivity for as this is how touch works .. the flow of electric charge from your hand pass through the cable and reach the screen

2nd ghost multitouch issue is there but i only tested with multitouch tester and i didnt notice it while working on the mobile

3rd now if i put the mobile on the chair hand and do not catch it with my hand 95% of touches are not registered which proves they lowered sensitivity ( the percentage may differ with mobile position grounding and battery level and charging or not )

4th the edges touch is less sensitive specially the lower part and space bar in addition to their lag so the keyboard is not usable now and will give you lots of space bar mistakes .. i think this is because of the lowered sensitivity all over the screen in addition to crippled edges touch from the start (using full screen gestures)

5th this is complicated it is how the PUBG was fixed : there was a user here on xda and miui that complained of particular touch issue were small turns were laggy and not registered .. this was completely fixed and PUBG plays excellent now

so to sum this up apparently edges have some sort of hardware problem and it will not be better than 8.11.15 so they should return sensitivity to 8.11.15 level so keyboard is usable again and keep the PUBG fix .. i think this will be the best partial fix for touch issues .. as by now i am convinced that they dont have a 100 % fix .. i was surprised they even fixed PUBG but who knows .. so now keyboard is in an unusable state if you turn on fullscreen gestures and cancelled the homescreen buttons .. so temporarily solutions till fix #1 you need to turn on the home buttons bar and wait for a fix or #2 disable keyboard borders in gboard theme and enable fullscreen gestures

i will add edit this post later and add rest of my impressions to this post as i test the phone

please share yours .. also do you see that i need to reset the phone before assessing the update ?!
