I waited too long for this phone. I am not giving up or returning it for something bigger.
We will be happy before long and this grumbling will die back down. At least I hope so. Lol
Yes I'm with uI waited too long for this phone. I am not giving up or returning it for something bigger.
Despite this bug, I don't regret my XS at all, which seem sooooo big. I'm in love with the mini.
Anyone tried touching their nose, turning around three times and say "open sesame" ?
yes! i have the same issue. sometimes the button work and sometimes it doesn’t. took screen protector off and it is a little better. if i use the tip of my finger it’s better. definitely an issue. i’ll be returning it if they don’t get it resolved quickly. only have 2 weeks to return it because holiday return policy starts only purchases after nov 11
I can say that I was having MAJOR touch screen issues on my iPhone 12 Pro. I mean it was pretty much constant. The screen just randomly would NOT register touch. I returned it and got a new one. New one seems to be much better, but rarely still seems to miss touches.
This is not just happening on the lock screen either - but on everything. On my first phone it was so bad that it took multiple attempts to move the progress slider on a YouTube video, for example, and when the touch was registered, it seemed to lose it while sliding.
Not using any screen protectors at all.

This user explain what it seems to be a software bug

iPhone 12 Mini not responding to touch correctly on lock screen (Partially FIXED)
it has something to do, with not touching the frame while clicking lock buttons. But it can be fixed by a software update. And I can prove it. If you go to accessibility settings and turn on: Touch Accommodations and Hold Duration it works, but you’ll get a delay (no less than 0,10 seconds)...

This is why I will never again buy the 1st Gen "new design" iPhone.
I learned my lesson with the iPhone 6 Plus.

If you go to accessibility settings and turn on:
Touch Accommodations
and
Hold Duration
it works, but you’ll get a delay (no less than 0,10 seconds), for every other touch you’ll do afterwards. But proves my point. So we’ve just have to wait for an update.

Unfortunately this doesn’t change anything for me. It simply delays the issue by .1 seconds each time. 😉
It solve for me.
How? Because no more issue, because 0,10s delay freeze the concurrency gestures
(because I think it's a software concurrency gestures which canceled each others)what is good for developers, is food for apple engineers

I have the exact same thing on my iPhone 12 mini, already noticed it from the start. When plugged into the wall charger, it works perfectly. Strange.
But Apple made the Keynote and no one was penalized for not getting their job done on time, which is all that seems to matter.
Holding his iPhone 4 awkwardly didn't bug Jobs and he expected it to not bother you too. Apple leadership has some odd requests from its customers. They treat us like employees. we the customers must do what Apple says is best for the company and Apple's agendas. I just picked up 2 iPhone apple adapters. I noticed the box and insides made more trash than if it was included with phone. Well whatever Lord Tim Apple says is good for all of us. Im just a follower. I'l spend some time cranking through the math of saving the environment by buying the adapters separately. bigger box taking up more volume to transport from across the world. I should have paid more attention in math class.
You don't want to go there with that logic. It was called an "electric device" in a patent, first brought to market being called a flashlight, and then after that, a torch.
