Honor 7x Screen Scroll - Very weird & doesn't last long

[Android Central Question]

I have been using Honor 7x for the past few days and very happy with the phone. The only problem that I have seen once I started using this phone is the screen scroll duration.

My earlier phones like Moto G and Mi 4, the screen scroll last for 1-2 seconds but in 7x the scroll stops as soon as pick my thumb up from the screen. I have to using my index finger to scroll real hard to get the same effect of the normal usage of other phones.

Is there any setting that I have been missing which needs to be done to improve the scroll duration? I tried to update the "Pointer Speed" in the advanced settings but that didn't help. Can anyone please guide if this is indeed an issue and how to fix it?

I have the same phone, and I agree... that's an annoying feature. Unfortunately, I don't think there's a way to fix it.

Try going to settings >advanced settings>accessibility >touch and hold delay > change to long.
Worked for me. Let me know if it helps. Cheers
