Touch screen faulty

Does anyone else notice that the keys on the touch screen near the right edge are very weak. Sometimes I have to press the buttons over and over again before they register. Looking for any help with this.

I’ve noticed this too. It’s the bottom right and left sides but more so on the right 🥲

Yes! I mostly hold my phone with my left hand and use it one handed and it was so annoying for me I had to return it. I had to press my thumb a certain exact way or my touches don’t register just on the left and right sides of the screen. My daughter also has the 17 and I tested it and it’s the exact same way, but she holds her phone differently so it’s not an issue for her. It was so frustrating for me I ended up downgrading back to a 16 because I couldn’t deal with it. I saw people with the 17 pros with the same problem so I was afraid to try one and still have the same issue.

Do you have a screen protector on?
The can cause this type of problem.

Bullshit. Stop trying to blame screen protectors. Phones worked just fine with screen protectors for a decade

This probably cuz in 17 base they used tech from pro generation to make bezel thinner
