iPhone 12 touch sensitivity issues

I have a new iPhone 12. I’ve been noticing some touch sensitivity spots near the edges and in the corners that have to touch something multiple times to get an action.

anyone else having screen issues? Who can I talk to about this?

iPhone 12, iOS 14

Iphone 14 pro touch issues There seems to be an issue with touch in Ios 16.x on Iphone 14/pro/max devices. My pro has issues clicking on smaller icons usually on the edges of the screen. Takes many tries before certain icons will acknowledge the press. There is a whole thread on reddit, describing this issues: https://www.reddit.com/r/iphone/comments/xotlx3/iphone_14_pro_touch_sensitivity/ Is this issue being addressed by apple anytime soon? Feels really bad using the phone like this.

iPad Mini 6th Generation A2568 - Loss of touch sensitivity My iPad has never responded properly to touch, right out of the box, new. Model # is A2568 (WiFi and cellular, 256 GB) and was purchased new and received from Apple January, 2022. I have previously owned both iPads and iPhones and never experienced a non-responsive screen. The problem seems most pronounced towards the edges of the screen, though it can occur in the middle of the screen too. I am wondering if others are experiencing this problem and looking for advice.
