Apple presented these new iPhone 16s on September 9. Like last year, they are available in four models. In addition to the “classic” and “Plus” versions,l’iPhone 16is entitled to a “Pro” version and a “Pro Max”. These are the two devices that are experiencing problems according to initial user reports.
While the first deliveries took place this Friday, September 20, we didn't have to wait more than a few hours for the forums to come alive. The first users regret that their iPhone 16 Pro is experiencing problems related to its touch screen.
Barely out of its box, the device would not have the expected level of responsiveness on its touch screen. Users describe a situation wherecertain movements are not taken into account by the iPhone. This obviously poses many problems, especially navigating the iPhone 16 Pro by scrolling your finger on the screen.
A software problem
Fortunately for Apple and these users, the problem seems to come from a software problem within iOS 18. It should therefore be possible to correct it in the coming days with the arrival of a source code update. Concretely, the 9to5Mac teams think thataccidental key rejection algorithm, the same one that prevents your iPhone from doing anything at the bottom of a bag,is way too sensitiveon the iPhone 16 Pro.
Apple made no announcement about this during the presentation of the device, but it is possible that this setting has been changed in recent months.The arrival of iOS 18would have brought this change to millions of devices, including the new iPhone 16 Pro.
For now, user testimonials complaining about this bug only concern this model specifically, but in the coming hours the software problem could affect other smartphones from the Apple brand.
Do not hesitate to tell us in the comments if you too are affected by these problems related to the touch screen of the iPhone 16 Pro.
