Users report that the iPhone 16 touchscreen is unresponsive and fails to register taps and swipes, particularly noticeable during activities like typing and gaming. This issue is causing frustration among many users and could be related to an overly sensitive accidental touch rejection algorithm in iOS 18. The problem may occur when certain display parts are inadvertently touched, leading to intended touches being ignored.
The iPhone 16 has other issues that involve the refresh rate; some models are not consistently achieving the advertised 120Hz and are limited to 80Hz. This limitation can affect animation and scrolling, making them appear less smooth.
The iPhone 16's design, particularly its thin bezel, may contribute to the display's current issues. It makes it easy for users to accidentally touch the phone's edge, which can hinder the user experience and may need to be addressed in future updates or models.

The viable solution is software updates, which I'm sure Apple will promptly come up with a fix. iPhone 16 users should ensure their devices are running the latest version of iOS, as updates often include fixes to current issues plaguing the device. Expect Apple to update touchscreen responsiveness issues in the coming days.
