TL;DR touch screen working correctly when wet (ie in the rain, or in my case, the shower ๐Ÿ‘€)

I dont want to read the article, what..uhh....what's the solution? And is it coming (will they sell it to) to other phones too?

Edit: read the article and there's no mention of it. Just talks about the ram of it, as if phones were short RAM these days.

Second paragraph:

"The company has revealed that the upcoming OnePlus Ace 2 Pro includes โ€˜Rainwater Touch Controlโ€™ technology, which combines a custom screen chip and some algorithms to account for water on the display, and prevent it from interfering with taps and swipes."

I wonder if it's as simple as just slowing down the input reading to a human reaction time level. At least my screen seems to take 15 000 inputs at the same time when wet.
