Since the launch of the iPhone 12 mini, many new iPhone 12 mini users have reported the issue of lock screen sensitivity. There is a post on the MacRumors forum with multiple pages describing the same issue, and the post has also been shared on Reddit, and more users have reported similar issues.

Specifically, for most users, when they swipe up from the bottom of the locked screen with their thumbs to unlock the device, or press the flashlight or camera button on the locked screen, the problem will show up.

The screen cannot always recognize pressing or swiping up to unlock. But using other fingers seems to have a better chance of completing the operation, but this problem did not bring follow-up trouble, because once the iPhone 12 mini is unlocked, the sensitivity problem will end.

Some users speculate that the lack of responsiveness may be caused by the conductivity problem, because there are reports that when the phone is plugged into the wall charger or touch the middle frame without the phone case installed, this problem will be solved automatically.

As for whether this issue is a hardware or software issue, Apple has not yet responded.
