How to Fix iPhone X Touchscreen Issues
The edge-to-edge OLED screen on the iPhone X is one of its major new features, but the touchscreen can sometimes stop working correctly. The two most common situations are a non-responsive screen and a screen that freezes in cold weather.
Non-Responsive Screen and Ghost Touches
Some users report that the screen on their iPhone X sometimes stops working. In those instances, the screen doesn’t respond to touches or taps. In other cases, Ghost touches activate apps and functions without prompting them. If you experience either of these issues, the cause is a hardware problem with the touchscreen chips and sensors in the iPhone X. Because these problems are caused by a hardware issue, you cannot fix them yourself. You’ll need to get the iPhone serviced to fix this problem.

How to Fix iPhone X Charging Problems

How to Fix iPhone X Battery Life Problems
Nothing is worse than not being able to use your phone because it’s running out of battery too soon, but that’s exactly the thing some iPhone X users complain about.
