going to going significant problems for cooling no matter what they
did. Still, my iPhone 13 never gets warm and my MacBook Air M1
never gets warmer than 33c (I checked).
They'll probably need to follow Samsung's lead and use vapor chamber
cooling.
You're assuming (without evidence) that this is a hardware issue. I've
seen owners of other models reporting that after upgrading to iOS 17
their devices got hot too. I've also seen widely varying reports of
what devices are doing during the heat generation. Some report it
while doing resource-intensive operations, and other while relatively
idle. So it's a little early to make such assumptions. For all we know
this is simply a software defect that will be fixed in a future
update.
"Honestly, I found major heat issues even on 12 Pro after the iOS 17
update. Sometimes my phone starts getting hot without any particular
reason"

"Yeah iOS 17 might be the cause of this rather than the hardware. My 11
Pro is getting much worse battery life since iOS 16. It’s also getting
hotter."

"Agreed there is some sort of looping glitch. I setup a 15 pro max for
the so and her phone well is pretty much ok. There was some conversion
from 16 to 17 that has gone off the rails. My 14 pro is tanking bad and
it honestly started after a security update in the 16 family. So I
wonder if they have adjusted something and had unintended consequences"

"Same, noticed my 14 Pro Max getting really hot and draining battery
fast when using Instagram for example, which never have been an issue on
that phone for me with iOS 16 Was also the first time I had to use
battery saving mode so for me there is something wrong since upgrading
to iOS 17. edit: maybe it could be this?: iPhone 15 Overheating? It is
Instagram app for me and I have a fix for you. - YouTube"

""It may not just be an iPhone 15 issue. My 14P gets blazing hot during
Facetime calls. Like actually uncomfortable to touch the screen. And the
battery drains about 5% every 10 minutes of call time. Started during
one of the iOS 17 betas and still hasn't been fixed.

"My 14 pro gets hot AF as well randomly"

...and the list goes on...
I realize you trolls *really* want this product to be defective, but
there are lots of indications this may just be a software glitch. It may
be really convenient for you to focus only on the reports to match your
bias, but the actual adults here don't necessarily have that burning
desire and are far more interested in factual, honest discussion. 😉
