I have my P40 lite for around 2 weeks now, and while i'm satisfied with the device, i've encountered that under battery settings, the settings named "smart charge" and "smart battery capacity" don't seem to work. I'm mainly using a 10w charger because i don't need fast charging, but i've tried using the box charger and cable, the device always fully charges to 100% and it never takes a break. Is anyone else encountering this? i'm on the latest EMUI as of now

BublikD1, 28 Sep 2021The problem with this phone is the embarrassing display touch sampling rate.
I tested it, ... moreYeh I sold mine the other month
Kirin 810 is a mid range beast, no lag
But display was defo very slow and super annoying, typing && gaming. There is also no gyro sensr & no eis

Bolickd1, 07 Oct 2021Certain touch sample rate testing apps require you to calculate the sample rate by substractin... moreThat's like the same thing you when you say that mouse polling rate is calculated when you use the mouse tester app & than substract it with refresh rate of the monitor. TouchPaint apk by kdrag0n (he is one of the best xda developers) is accurate always. It generates it's input directly from display's framebuffer so there is no assumption with it. You can check it's source code If you're interested, as my posts won't get approved If I share links.
It's true that other things also affect touch latency like CPU usage, RAM usage, touch input prioritization, distance between touchscreen & panel (OLEDs are usually thinner than IPS panels) etc. But I compared the equivalent of P40 Lite in terms of display, Redmi Note 8T & both have around the same input lag & feel too it. Both have 60hz refresh rate & 120hz touch sampling rate. Maybe some users got bad batches of P40 Lite's panel or even different displays so they are having these issues. F.e. Poco X3/Pro have Tianma or Huaxing display. Huaxing is better & most users encountered ghost touching issues with Tianma panels.
Cheers.

This is common knowledge, and there are articles and youtube video's on this.
The P40 lite and P40 Lite 5g are in no way comparable to the redmi note 9t, moto g9 plus and certain realme devices within the similar price range, that also have 60hz displays - when it comes to touch sampling rate/latency lag.
If you use a generic app, it will display the touch response based on the refresh rate - which is a generic estimation. I.e
60/120
120/240
This isn't however, a true reflection, as other factors such as touch latency need to be considered. Other apps that actually measure your touch/response and display the rate would therefore require calculations to determine the devices accurate sample rate.
The p40 lite and p40 lite 5g, have a sluggish touch sample rate/response rate and latency issue. It's evident if you actually own and use the handset for a period of a few weeks, and compare it to other devices within the same spec bracket.

BublikD1, 07 Oct 2021The P40 lite does NOT have a 120hz touch sampling rate.
Please stop spreading misinformation... moreBy that logic, my Poco X3 would have 120Hz touch sampling rate instead of 240Hz If I follow your instructions. Which is not true. Of course that it's slower to respond comparing to X3 Pro because 120Hz panel with 240hz touch sampling rate would have at least around 12ms lower input lag than 60hz panel with 120hz touch sampling rate.
I don't know where did you get the information that refresh rate needs to be substracted. It's simply not true. Panel touch response is okay in P40 Lite. It's as expected for 60hz panel.

Please stop spreading misinformation.
Download any other app, such as the touch multi test app, to verify this.
I've tested it on numerous occasions and if I could upload screenshots, i would, to show you that it alters between a calculated touch sampling rate of 55 - 75hz. (After deducting the screen refresh rate of 60hz).
You can tell just by using the handset - it's sluggish and slow to respond, especially when compared to an x3 pro.

fiftydinar, 06 Oct 2021What? No. It shows the correct touch sampling rate. No substracting at all.If it needed substracting, developer would include it to be done automatically. It also reports correct 240Hz touch sampling rate for my Poco X3 NFC.

Camera: I like it. Front camera is so good, and the back camera is pretty good same..
Battery Performance: This is the only thing that I am not that satisfied with... I can't say that this 4200mAh battery is bad, but it is not as I expected..
Design: I like it.
Screen: Good colour, good contrast and good brightness adjustment... You'll like it too.
Processor: Very fluid, smooth, and not lag in everyday use in social media and etc.
Charger: Very fast charging, 1 minute charging = 4%..
Fingerprint: Very fast
Huawei Mobile Services: I haven't issued any problem with NO-GOOGLE yet.. Everything that I installed, worked as normal as on other phones with GMS..APKPURE and that's it..
Rating: 9/10
Only for the battery I can't say that is WOW, but it does it's job.. Idk..
I recommend this phone, I like it..

The problem with this phone is the embarrassing display touch sampling rate.
I tested it, and I'm getting around 55hz!?
It explains why typing on the screen, and playing games (response time) just feels very very very sluggish.
The majority of competitors had upgraded to a minimum of 120hz
touch sampling rates, even in their budget handsets, especially oppo and xiaomi.. Which does improve the overall experience.
