The touch screen response issue still exist. This is undoubtedly a manufacturing defect, and Apple is aware that it cannot resolve this issue through software updates. Otherwise, they would have fixed the problem in the first update. Instead, they choose to ignore the issue, as it would require recalling all the devices and replacing them with new ones. This is a significant disappointment for Apple.
