These tablets are a brand new item so they may be different, but on the Pinebook Pro there were some problems with the track pad/keyboard 'firmware' that needed separate attention.
Your 'operating system' does have settings to control the keyboard and track pad, but those can vary with each operating system.
When your 'operating system' looks for the track pad/keyboard, it see's the 'firmware'.
If your firmware is correct, it will not need any farther attention across any operating systems
or updates.
If your firmware is incorrect it will not work well on any operating system.
Operating system updates do not change your firmware, so most likely it sounds like you need to use an earlier release of your software, or try a different operating system.
Your operating system does control such things as the size of the cursor, or the speed it moves.
The firmware controls such things as, you hit the '1' key and the '2' key shows on the screen.
All of these operating systems are still brand new so they are still in need of refinement.
Sharing your experiences here on the forum will help with improving these systems.
This statement will not 'fix' it, but it will hopefully help you to understand the problem(s) ?
