Is this phone worth it?

Well I am facing some touch issues btw not sure how to address them. When playing pubg if I open the scope the touch doesn't work for 1 second and during normal gameplay also it gets stuck during aiming. Its not lag or render btw touch issues. Also when typing the screen can't react to even my normal typing speed which is above averagish. I think it's software bug btw can't fix it. Someone please clear the issue. If it is hardware then I can still replace my phone. It has been 2 days since I bought it.

Careware, 27 May 2020I strongly believe that realme knows the issue because they have put two FAQs about it and bla... moreIn nba 2k20 game on my 5i, the tip left and top right corner buttons can only be tapped (detected) when i tap their upper half of the rectangle icon for button.
Is this because of software bug or ia this because of its screen ratio? I mean is it possible this is because the game is developed to be played in 16:9 ratio so other screen ratios distorts/stretches the buttons' tapping area?
Please educate me on this issue as this is my first phone with longer than 16:9 ratio

Now I won't buy realme ever again. Even their flagship phones.
I'll buy slightly higher price phones from other brands next time.

I have upgraded to A.19 and have disabled three fingers as well as all the Convenience tools but the problem persists.
I turned on "show touches" and "pointer location" in developers options. And realized that it is NOT screen sensing issue BUT software processing issue because i can see the touch is shown on the screen and the cross lines are also displayed. Sometimes the software doesn't respond to the input even i have turned off all the unnecessary features....
Hope to get software solution soon.

If you want to use this phone for gaming. Just disable the 3 fingers screen shot and 3 fingers slide features. It will solve the touch issue....

It's probably dirty screen or dirty tempered glass or your screen panel itself is broken.
Touch issue for this phone is different. Your tap is not detected most of the time. This is bad for gaming and typing. Scrolling is ok. It's difficult to tap buttons because they're randomly not detected.

Az7uL, 23 May 2020Can't support Wi-Fi 5GHz connection. Even oppoA5s (more cheaper) can support Wi-Fi 5GHz.It's wifi certified for up to dual band wifi AC (check the link in lower comments) but thry didn't activate it in software, so this phone only has wifi N standard.
This issue and touch issue are really annoying. Nobody can refute me by saying don't expect everything in budget phones. It's 2020 and still no wifi 5 (wifi AC) and this is marketed as budget gaming phone but has touch issues. I'm ok with micro usb even in 2020 but even this annoys most people.
