Solution is John Lewis are swapping it out for me. Sadly they don;t have the black one, so swapping for a white one. Google wanted the device back, and said 5-10 day turn around, John Lewis are sending replacement to local Waitrose to do an exchange. I got £100 off which has now ended otherwise I'd refund and reorder elsewhere.I have the same screen protector installed and generally don't have any issues. However there have been a few times on various websites where I press a link or try to scroll and the screen is unresponsive. It seems to be an issue with Chrome.
It doesn't seem to happen anywhere else. I have tried restarting the phone and still have the same issue? But it doesn't happen very often.
I hope you can find a solution.
Annoying but there's worse things going on in the world.
