A5,A7 (2017) Multi-touch

[slyphnier]

Helo everyone

i want more info regarding multi-touch in A5 and A7 (2017), tried looking on internet and didnt really find the answer yet

i tested A3 and it only have 5points multi-touch, i want to know whether A5 & A7 also get same 5points multi-touch or 10points multi-touch

iirc A5 (2016) have 10 point multi-touch, i know 10 point multi-touch is more likely useless anyway
but well its good to have more than needed

hope someone can share some info regarding this

thanks in advance

The max for my a5 2017 is just 5 fingers. Would've been better if it's more than that.

5 fingertouch according to me is more than enough.

I mean who would want to put all of their fingers in operating a phone? And how is the person going to hold the phone then.

well indeed most of the time and for most people 5 multi-touch is more than enough
i am not complaining about it either
but again most samsung mid to high model been always using 10 multi-touch
cmiiw A5 2016 also got 10 multi-touch

well its quite likely such this is where samsung save cost for the premium look that A 2017 series got

How do we test the multi touch? I have the A7 2017. I'll try it for you.

there lots multitouch-tester apps
such like this : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.the511plus.MultiTouchTester&hl=en

it simply put your finger on display, if it capable 10, then it showing 10point
if only 5, then when u put 6th finger on display, it wont register/show up or other finger jumped to 6th finger ( only showing 5point)

There you go. I attached a screenshot. It supports 10. I'm on Dual sim variant.
