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!
There is no Genius Bar as it is an Apple authorised reseller, they have no idea as it is just a sales store not a service centre but the sales manager said there have been few customer complaints regarding the touchscreen.
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. Why apple didn’t fix with iOS 18.? I hope it will get fixed in the next software update.
I think I figured out what’s causing it.
if your finger is at all on the new photo button, the phone isn’t sure whether you’re doing something with the photo button, which is touch sensitive or touching the screen so you have to make sure that your grip is not at all impeding the photo button and you should be better it’s still not completely healed for me, but it’s much much better when I make sure I’m not touching that Hope this helps.
I’ve been experiencing a frustrating issue with the keyboard. It’s very slow to respond—letters appear on the screen after I’ve already typed them. Sometimes, the keyboard freezes for about 3 seconds, during which nothing I type shows up. After the freeze, everything catches up all at once.
What’s worse is that if I press "Send" during the freeze, it only sends the text typed up to the freeze point, and the rest of what I typed during that period ends up in a new message.
This problem started when I upgraded to iOS 18.0.0. I didn’t have this issue with my iPhone 15 Pro Max before the update, but it has continued even after switching to the iPhone 16 Pro Max. Because of this, I think it’s a software issue.

Glad to see that it’s not just my iPhone lol. Hopefully Apple will be able to fix this with an update soon. 🤞🏼
No issues for me with mine - 16PM, 1 TB, picked up on launch day.
yep look mie does tha too
This is more likely to be the Instagram app rather than iOS.

Hopefully they send you a brand new one and not a refurbished one. Carriers love to send out those refurbs for replacements.
I use speech to text ALOT and when I punch the mic button (hard) about 70% of the time it doesn’t start recording. It’s maddening.
I've never needed to use anything other than a light tap; perhaps try not pushing the button hard.
