April Security Update Starts Rolling Out To Galaxy A71 5G

The new security update for the Galaxy A71 5G is rolling out with firmware version A716BXXU6DVD5.

However, having recently received the Android 12 update with the Korean brand’s One UI custom software, which brought tons of new features and enhancements, it’s understandable why the Galaxy A71 5G isn’t getting any notable user-facing changes with the latest update....

But the keyboard can be handy for certain games, mainly for chat or typing up messages. We’ll use Final Fantasy XIV as a good example here. While this game plays wonderfully on PS5 using the DualSense, typing up messages using the digital keyboard is slow and honestly not very enjoyable. As any MMO player will tell you, chatting in-game with friends, clan mates etc. can go fast. So whether you’re trying to keep up with replies so your messages don’t fall behind or just like to respond quickly, using the onboard digital keyboard that you navigate with the d-pad and thumbsticks is not ideal....
