I woke up today to find that my iPhone 13, which updated to iOS 26.2 overnight, has a completely unresponsive screen. I've had similar issues in the past, and usually, a forced restart (volume up, volume down, then the power button) would fix it, but this time that didn't work. I can't even unlock my phone! Is anyone else facing screen problems after this update?

A lot of people are having issues with the iPhone 13 series screens, but Apple has only officially acknowledged it for certain customers. You might just need to get your screen replaced altogether.
It seems like you might be confused about the version numbers. The release with the iPhone 17 went straight from 18.x to 26.0, so iOS 22 isn't accurate. If your screen has been replaced before with a non-genuine one, that's possibly the issue here; you might need a proper original screen instead. Let me know if that helps!
Oops, I meant 26.2. But I can confirm my screen is still the original one.
