Hey there!

Is anyone having issues when typing? The lag on my phone is insane whenever I type no matter what application I use. Just upgraded to the new software too, same issue.

Are you using the Samsung keyboard? And predictive typing is slow to catch up?
Yeah, I'm using the Samsung keyboard. Part of it is that predictive typing is slow to catch up, but I don't depend on that anyways. The larger issue is that there's a lag of around half a second or more when I type a letter and when it pops up on the screen.

Are you using any screen protector?

Yeah I don't know what it is. Every Samsung I've owned has had issues with input lag.

The phone registers your input instantly, but there's a huge delay between when you press and when it shows on screen. Deleting characters/words is just as bad, correct?

Hmm, mine is same as my Note5. Also, Google Keyboard feels lightning fast, especially with haptic feedback off (but that's all keyboards).

I hardly use stock keyboard anyway. I use either Swiftkey or Google Keyboard. Depending on my mood.

Hopefully Samsung patch this up with Nougat.

Does anyone have problems where multiple key presses happen and you get excessive letters when typing. I posted this on another forum with the errors left to show.

"Ssso the definite symptoms off my problem is the excessive letterrr input when typing. Iv even left the errors in this paragraph for a example.

Nextt obvious one is scrolling issues in menus or webpages.

So if anyone is experiencing these two most common symptoms let me know. No doubt mine is likely defective and will be getting a replacement.

It could still be software problem yett and because off how new the phone is, it may not bbe quite public yet."

Clearly you can see how ffustratingg thiss can be. Kinda taaaakingg the sting out of the fun off having a new toy.
