A prominent Apple analyst has warned that if the tech giant fails to properly address the iPhone 15 Pro overheating issue, it could impact sales of the device.
Apple’s new iPhone 15 handsets have been largely well received since their release on Friday, though one troubling issue has emerged with the pricier Pro versions of the device.
As reported by Digital Trends on Monday, some owners of the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max have taken to online forums to express concerns that their new iPhone is heating up way beyond what seems normal, and certainly to a greater extent than their previous iPhone when performing the same or similar tasks.
Some have speculated that the issue is caused by the phone’s new A17 Pro chip, which is Apple and TSMC’s first 3nm processor. But high-profile analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, a man better known for sharing insider information on upcoming iPhone designs than comments on issues like this, claims the matter is probably due to factors such as Apple’s use of a titanium frame in the new Pro phones, which Kuo says affects thermal efficiency.
