Done all of it. It's not those things. Where do you find side button + tap to wake disabled at the same time anyway?
Anyway sent this video to Apple dev too. Just like to share if others are also experiencing the same problem.
Sounds like the device might be defective. Probably getting Apple to take a look at it and likely replace it would be the way to go.
problem would be it's not readily reproducible. I immediately grabbed my Pixel just to film that exact moment.
Apple replacement guidelines would need service advisers to confirm and reproduce the problem if not personally or via diagnostic menu.
In enough cases they take someone's word for it as well. Perhaps the video might help too.
If it’s not the case mashing on one or more of the buttons, then I’d try a wipe and re-setup the phone as new. Otherwise, get the phone replaced.
Out of 20 million phones, there’s bound to be a few defective units...

I tried tapping the screen if you pay close attention. Even without quick succession the screen wouldn't turn on. I'll have a service center run diagnostics soon.
I pressed it more than 5 times actually. I'll post a more composed video when I get a chance (wherein I don't mash the buttons like a maniac).
I haven't had any issues, but I would restore and set up as a new device before doing anything else.
While my issue isn't the same, ever since the last software update I feel the screen is less responsive especially when clicking links in safari. I need to press links multiple times on occasion, and this did not happen prior to 11.2. It's one of those things that makes you feel like you are going crazy since it doesn't always happen but its just something I notice.
I’ve had his happen 3 times over the last few days. Completely unresponsive no matter what buttons are pressed held down or tapped for the appropriate responses. Then after sitting for a minute or so will come out is it’s coma.
It feels comforting to see some of us share the same experience. My guess is that it's not as widespread as other problems.
My X screen has been unresponsive since day one - especially on messages . I have to hard press 3-4 times to get the copy pop up in messages. I ditched a belkin screen protector- but that really didn't help. I've waited through several software updates- that didn't help . Anyone else having this problem, or do I have to go to the Apple store, wait 2 hours & beg for a replacement phone??
