Iphone XS max ghost touching - m4k1 - Jul 18, 2020

Hello everyone!

I have a problem with my Iphone XS Max.
Everything worked absolutely fine until the touch screen suddenly stopped working properly.
Phone is not damaged or anything else, doesn't have a single scratch.
It is interesting that the phone works great when i'm not using it for 1 hour.
But when i try to tap on screen or do something little faster , it becomes unresponsive and it clicks
everything else ( ghost touching ) .Then i must wait 1 hour to get normal.
Note that when i'm tapping on screen slower, the phone works fine.
I don't have any idea what would cause this problem? Is it system (software) failure ,
motherboard failure or touch IC problem ?

I appreciate every help! Thank you

You should visit the Apple Care centre and let them diagnose it.

From the info you have its most likely Touch Panel's fault.

123 Thank's for the answer. I assumed that the problem is Touch Panel, but i wasn't 100% sure.
The problem is i have no warranty anymore ( 1 year and 2 months have been passed ), and i don't know how much it will cost me.
Is it cheaper to repair (by myself) ,buy parts somewhere else ( like aliexp.. etc )?

Update: It was software problem. It's solved.
