Is anyone else noticing their iPhone 16 pro max being unresponsive sometimes when touching the screen, typing, swiping.
Im not even using a screen protector and it’s like it. Makes things seem really laggy sometimes.
Did not expect it on a brand new iPhone.
iPhone 16 Pro Max, iOS 18
I have noticed typing on the keyboard sometimes just doesn’t register letters or the space bar. I took it to Apple, ran diagnostic tests and there wasn’t anything wrong. It is extremely laggy and doesn’t pick up key entries. Pls fix!
It has been almost 2 weeks with my new iPhone 16 pro-Max with this issue. Reset and manufacturing reset it but the issue is still occurring… so much money is spent on something that does not have the equivalent quality. What is the fix here? New iOS update?
I upgraded to 16pro max from 15pro max and noticed immediately how slow the screen was at responding to touch. Feels like you need to be more deliberate in your inputs for it to register.
I have a screen protector but as this is from a quality brand I can’t see that being the issue.
Hopefully a software issue rather than hardware.
I have the same issue
We have iPhone 16 Pro Max and 16 Pro, neither of which have any touch issues with the screens. But clearly for some users, there are touch issues. After you updated to iOS 18.0.1 did you do a Forced Restart of your iPhone? This is something I do after EVERY iOS update. Try it and see if it helps you and keep this procedure in mind to do after an iOS update --> Force restart iPhone - Apple Support

Nothing changed for me, I’m continuing to still have weird screen responsiveness. Except now, I have Apple AI with the problems 😖
Most people aren't having touch issues, but I have no doubt that you are. Have you tried to adjust touch per the directions here --> Adjust how iPhone responds to your touch - Apple Support
Never seen it on my 16 PM, nor have any of the 16PM owners I know of, nor have I seen it on any demo 16PM.
If you think your phone has an issue, make an appointment otherwise have it examined:

My issue with tap is when the icons are closer to the edges of the screen. I have to tap several times to get the screen to respond. iPhone 16 pro max is my first iPhone and I’m disappointed fr.
My phone was declared faulty by Apple after contacting Apple support and trying various things including a full phone restore. I've now been sent a replacement from my carrier.
Has anyone done the iOS 18.0.1 update to remedy this? I’ve done it but don’t think it’s improved. Starting to worry about my device now. iPhone 16 pro max 😫
I don’t think mine has improved. Still feels slow and unresponsive when typing.
I am also experiencing this issue. Like some times the swipe would need to be done twice. Hope this is not a hardware issue.
Relatively same issues, 2 forced restarts and my touch accommodations were on and I turned them off.
Problem was solved.
my pro max screen becomes unresponsive on the charger? but works when its off???
I thought I was going crazy. Mine has been doing that since I bought it.
Me too i’m having the same problem. If Apple doesn’t fix it soon i’m returning the phone !!! Ughhhh.
It still has the same issue<< unresponsive screen to touch in many many many incidents (Apps, settings and homesceen too) !!!
