With the arrival of the Pocophone F1 on the market, we discovered one of the most risky Xiaomi bets, with hardware at the height of the best and managing to reduce its price to a minimum. Today the Pocophone F1 is still a good purchase decision, although the problems on its screen can become a headache that luckily have a solution.
The large 6.18-inch screen and IPS technology of the Pocophone F1 has been in the news since its launch, some problems that seemed to be linked to the hardware were solved from updates, although other users continue to live with them without finding the solution. With the intention that you can enjoy your Pocophone F1 again without the dreaded lag or tactile problems, we show you what to do.
The easiest screen errors to fix
Although at first glance we may think that solving the tactile problem in our Pocophone F1 may be practically impossible, the truth is that it is not too complicated if we are lucky enough to solve it with these first methods that we teach you.
Update your mobile
Many users were able to solve problems with the touch screen just by updating their mobile and we could be one of them. Since the problem became known, the now independent firm POCO has been continually working on security patches to try to end these problems . To do this we will only have to enter Settings> Information about the phone> System update, once checked, if we have any pending we do it and then we check if the errors have disappeared.
The screensaver is your enemy
In several cases, the problem, rather than hardware or software, has a clear relationship with the way we use it, a screen saver can be the cause, by not allowing us to slide our finger across the screen in the best way. The dirt on the screen protector itself can also cause problems with the touch sensors and for this we recommend cleaning the screen of the mobile in depth before reading on.
A problem that comes from the keyboard
Since the problem became known, many users have tried to kill them to get the most out of a smartphone that has the best features, concluding that this problem has a clear relationship with the keyboard. In several tests after having changed the keyboard for the SwiftKey keyboard everything is solved. When it comes to typing the Google keyboard quickly and gestures confuse the system , so just by installing an alternative one we can use our mobile without problem.
Pocophone F1 calibration issues
If nothing we have taught you has been enough for the Pocophone F1’s touch screen to stop suffering from problems, we will have to resort to an application to calibrate our screen . It is a process that we must do carefully, on a flat surface and without excessively moving our mobile so that the result is the best possible.
When starting the application we will have to follow its instructions, touching with a finger, two or double-tapping in the area that marks us. Once we have finished the process, it will save the entire process and correct the problems that affect us in the Pocophone F1. Over time it is likely that we will have to repeat it, although by then we will know how to fix it.
