Thanks for such a quick reply!!!

I see, if that is the expected behavior then that's something I can live
with. And thanks for the suggestion about the EVIOCGABS - I might use that
one!
One more question though before I let go of that matter - I do observe
that when the phone lies flat on a table X is updated the least, Y about
twice as often and Z at least three times as often as X.
Even if I would assume that the measurement gets noisier due to the
gravity force acting along the Z axis (which I do not know if I can
assume) this still does not explain why is Y updated more frequently than
X (and it is a behavior I consistently observe on multiple Freerunners).
Do you have any (possible) explanation for that?
