Is your iPhone 15 Pro feelin‘ hot, hot, hot?
Apple’s recently released iPhone 15 Pro devices are being widely praised for their speed, new features and market-leading camera performance, but several users have also taken to the internet to report worrying overheating issues.
“Jeeez my iPhone 15 Pro Max is almost too hot to touch while fast charging right now,” 9to5Mac’s Ian Zelbo wrote in a recent X post. “I thought people were overexaggerating but no this isn’t great.” Similarly, serial Apple leaker Revengus wrote: “This is insane. The iPhone 15 Pro can reach temperatures of up to 48 degrees. Apple fire dragon.”
Suffice to say, these overheating incidents don’t appear to be isolated, but it’s worth noting that we didn’t encounter any undue temperature increases while testing Apple’s latest flagship phone for our iPhone 15 Pro Max review (our iPhone 15 Pro review is still in-progress). We did, however, experience some overheating issues while testing Apple’s newest standard phone for our iPhone 15 review.
