My Samsung S7 touchscreen has always been very responsive.

My Samsung A20 touchscreen is not always responsive, and sometimes I need to touch the same icon twice.

Is it just because the CPU is slow and busy to process touchscreen requests?

Or is it the intended behavior of the user interface?

What can I do to make A20 more responsive?

 

I do not use a screen protector. I have the latest stock firmware, security patch Feb.1, 2021 and just a few apps installed. Android 10. One UI version 2.0.

 

Samsung Members app hardware test does not detect any problem. Wiping cache does make any difference.

 

If A20 is not  good in that respect, what Samsung budget series/models are as responsive as "S"?

Same issues with tapping on my A20S.

I believe that this is just the way a budget phone works, but really expected better from Samsung. : )
