Keyboard issues after S20 OS August 2021 Update

Hi, my first post here.

So I installed the latest OS update today morning on my S20 FE 5G and after that I have experienced strange touch screen or keyboard issues. When ever I try to write something with my keyboard it just lags or I have severe misspellings. The keyboard frequently doesn't recognize when I press the letter or it writes the same letter two or three times. It's very frustrating!

I have read on another forum users suffering the same issues. Anybody here have same problems?

I have rebooted the phone and changed the keyboard without success. I tested a Touchscreen testing app and it shows the actual touchscreen works very well with no issues. I didn't have any problems before installing the latest update. Any ideas what to do next?

Kernel version: 4.19.113-22378117

Security patch level: Sep 1 2021.

Bro, I understand you have touch screen problems, but that doesn't prevent you from turning on spellchecker or typing in proper sentences. ?‍🤦‍

For me over the last few updates this problem have been getting less and less noticeable. Especially I'd say last 2 updates really improved the situation. 🤷‍

Unless you got a really good discount on this phone, you are probably better off buying Galaxy A53.

well  that that is just an added sheet of plastic it should and would not affect the screen in any way you could either peel it off or leave it on in place of a 1 dollar screen protector works wonders if you ask me lmao
