iphone 16pm typing issues

Recently got the 16 pm and applied a screen protector and i started to really notice issues with the touch sensitivity. Typing is a bit of a pain because I have to press a lot harder than I did then when I had a 13 pm, same with if i’m scrolling, etc.

Searched online if it was my screen protector but it looks like other people have the same issue as I do (from other forums and here) so was wondering if this is possibly an apple issue where it can be fixed through an update?
