Severe camera shaking/jitter when panning camera with touch controls in Beta/Preview

When looking around or panning the camera while moving, the camera experiences severe horizontal and vertical jitter/micro-snapping. The issue persists even with stable frame rates and standard player coordinates close to spawn (~X: 100, Y: 82, Z: 48).

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Open a world on the latest MCPE Beta/Preview build on a mobile touch device.

  2. Ensure D-Pad Touch Controls and Split Controls are enabled in Settings.

  3. Walk using the D-Pad while dragging the right side of the screen to turn the camera.

Observed Result:

The screen/camera stutters and jitters rapidly while dragging, making camera panning jumpy and unsmooth.

Expected Result:

The camera should pan smoothly during touch dragging without micro-stutters or input snapping.

Troubleshooting Already Attempted (Did not fix):

  • Toggled View Bobbing and Camera Shake OFF.

  • Reduced touch sensitivity.

  • Toggled Split Controls ON/OFF.

  • Capped Framerate Limit to 60 FPS.

  • Player coordinates are close to 0, 0, ruling out coordinate drift.
