Passcode numbers delete as I enter my passcode

As I enter my passcode, I can see the phone "hitting a backspace" and deleting some of the numbers. Its like someone is hitting backspace as I type in my passcode. If I go really really slow it won't hit backspace. Usually it just deletes one number in the middle of my 6 digit passcode. You can see the number has been pressed...

You need to tap the number, not do swipe gesture on it. If you do swipe gesture, then it's not accepted as tap.


For me, "swipe" can happened when I operate iPhone one hand in which I'm holding it.
