Guys, the battery life has become terrible from constantly touching the screen. Does anyone tweak screen sensitivity? Or should we do hardware-level optimization? What solutions did others in a similar situation find? If I find a way out of this, I'll be set. What are your suggestions?

Did you try the method below, bro? Most devices already have a "Touch sensitivity" setting under "Advanced features," so I maxed it out since some brands hide it. It even saved me 20% battery on my 5-year-old phone. Otherwise, you’d have to tweak it manually, which is a hassle.
I wasted money on third-party battery saver apps like "Battery Doctor," but they didn’t help at all. Then I messed around with ADB commands to adjust "input tap" sensitivity, which was a nightmare. Turns out the cleanest solution was just using the factory setting—no one talks about these hidden features.
I think the easiest and quickest way is to reduce the touch sensitivity. I always feel like I'm pressing the screen too hard when I'm stressed, but on Android you can reduce the sensitivity a bit by going to Settings > System > Advanced > Touch sensitivity. This way, accidental presses are reduced and the battery lasts a bit longer too.
Then there are background activities—apps running in the background drain the battery just as much as constant screen use. For hardware optimization, unnecessary connections like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth should be turned off. I had apps like stalkerware running in the background on my phone, and once I stopped them, both the battery life and performance improved a lot.
