Like that need DL mlbb on her s24u liao... But read other forums p8 pro series got some others commenting on touch issues as well😵💫
Actually for me got improvements over S23U playing MOBAs.

FPS still suffer a lot if on too high graphical settings but touch response is a little better than my S23U.

That's why I ask you to test on S24U, make sure to keep other factors the same such as wifi/mobile network, gaming location/proximity to router the same to see if it's really due to device performance.

Go into settings > system > dev opt > graphic driver pref > change 'default' to 'sys graphic driver' and observe its performance

The problem with pixel lies in inconsistency across batches; some users face issues while others don't
I hate this so much. Any form of smartphone lottery/QC issue is the worse as it makes you feel so isolated.

If it's a known/common issue at least there is hope a fix will be available in the future.

What's the difference ah? I thought they updated the graphics driver as part of the December QPR which improved gaming performance significantly in the pixel 8 series?

This is an Android option designed for phones utilizing separate cores for gaming or those equipped with standalone graphics chips. this functionality is akin to a PC having the choice between using the onboard graphics of the CPU and an actual GPU. but it may not have an impact on the Pixel

Yeah I read on a similar reddit thread that the default settings might already default to using the system graphics driver anyway.

Let's wait to hear back from @Blueberrytea if his wife's S24U really has better touch performance under similar conditions.

Perhaps the default is the same as the system graphic driver; we'll never know :s13:

Anyone felt there p8 pro touch not as responsive... Me while playing mlbb always felt irresponsive so went to change ringke tempered glass but same haha

Side step abit. What casing are you using and if your tempered glass fits your casing? I'm using ringke casing but a different brand tempered glass and it's too big for my casing.

Those circle to search not working after updating your Google app in app store and enabling the settings, try to reboot your phone first.
Thanks for sharing! Was wondering why I don't have it yet despite updating the Google app.
