iPhone 17 Pro screen not very responsive to touch

I’ve had the iPhone 17 pro since yesterday, and there have been several times I’ve had to tap buttons in multiple apps and on the Home Screen and keyboard to get the phone to respond. There also seems to be lag when I’m scrolling. Has anyone else had this issue? I have a good quality glass screen protector and this feels like an issue with the software or phone itself.

iPhone 17 Pro, iOS 26

You need to have Apple perform diagnostics on your iPhone. It can be done in person at an Apple Retail Store or at an Apple Authorized Service Provider. You can also contact Apple Support and request remote diagnostics.
