My own tests confirm your results. Xt-5 is now very 'sticky' in S-AF, not quite perfect but now reliable enough to use without resorting to the BBF work-around.
Hi great video... I have found shooting at the 20m pixels setting (not 40mp) fixes speed, accuracy, lens quality (on older lenses) and noise - Its now absolutely perfect - hope this helps someone. I upgraded from XT3 because wanted IS, larger batt, new processor speed and latest film sims and the see through Q display.
Better with some lenses, still some issues with the 10-24. Just go to the Fujifilm support website, download the firmware and follow the instructions in the website, it's easy.
From my tests with h2s I noticed that in low light it locks onto the distant subject several times without any f problems and the bar remains stuck on infinity. In good daylight it jumps from 2 to 10 meters as before, and with manual focus and bbf everything is fine again. Now my dilemma is this. Since I can't give the camera away because it's essentially faulty (not my fault, never taken a single hit) what do I do, do I resign myself to taking pictures with bbf or do I send it from Italy to England to the repair centre?? Will they do something with it or send it back as is? What would you do in my place?
I would contact Fujifilm and report it, at this point probably it's worth to send it for a check. My T5 is almost OK, not perfect but more reliable, hoping for another FW update on the AF.

Exactly and still hoping that Fujifilm can improve the AF a little bit more in the next updates...if any.

Thanks, i will give it a try.
New Firmware v. 3.01 for X-T5 addresses these issues, Did you try pls report if your problems are fixed.
Now is more reliable using the new 23 f1.4 LM WR, it still struggle with the 10-24 but better than the previous firmware versions.
Is it better now? And how do you install the new software on your camera? I have the exact same problem with my camera!😢
