Apple has not specifically addressed the iPhone 15 Pro’s heating issue, despite evidence pouring in from reviewers and users alike. Read on!
Users continue to report heating issues on the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max.
Apple has yet to acknowledge the problem, release a statement, or advise a solution specific to these phones.
The overheating is attributed mainly to the use of titanium, reduced heat dissipation area, and errant apps.
As more and more users get their hands on the iPhone 15 series, the numbers rise on the complaints about the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max running hotter than what is humanly comfortable. We’ve previously reported on early adopters facing issues with heat, and now more consumers and more recent waves of adopters are also facing the same. Despite the chatter, Apple has not commented on the issue.The heating problem with the iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max
Our early report stemmed from my personal experience with my iPhone 15 Pro Max and those of several noted reviewers, all of whom faced the issue in some capacity.
While all phones heat up when pushed to the limits, the peculiarity with the iPhone 15 Pro’s heating issue is that it heats up during regular usage, too. Users have reported that the Pro phones get extremely hot during phone calls and FaceTime calls.
My iPhone got very hot when browsing Instagram Reels for about 10 minutes. In my case, the heat is not from running benchmarks or games or from simultaneously charging.
Further, charging the device without any tasks actively running in the background also causes it to heat up, as users have complained.
