Apple admitted overheating of new iPhones
The culprit is allegedly neither the chipset nor the titanium body, but a bug in iOS 17
They are already working hard on the remedy in Cupertino
Last week, Apple started selling new iPhones, and soon after, the first insights of reviewers and new owners appeared. While the basic iPhones 15 and 15 Plus cause almost no controversy, their more equipped colleagues with the nickname “Pro” arouse heated debates – about the durability of titanium, about the strength of the entire structure, and also about the new 3nm Apple A17 Pro chipset, which is probably responsible for excessive overheating and reduced battery life. Is that really the case?
The iPhone 15 Pro really heats up, Apple admitted
Overheating problems with iPhones were discussed all last week – some users did not even notice this phenomenon, others recorded problems. According to the experience of the second group, overheating occurs randomly, usually at times when there is no reason for it. At first, Apple was silent on the speculation about the overheating of the new iPhones, but now it has finally come out with an official statement.
Apple has admitted the excessive heating of the new iPhones, in Cupertino they have allegedly identified three causes that can cause it:
The first of them is supposed to be associated with setting up a new iPhone, when in the first days there is a background download of applications, photos or music from the original phone, which drains the phone and leads to its overheating. The second cause is supposed to be an unspecified bug in iOS 17, which should be fixed in the next system update. The third cause is supposed to be recent third-party application updates causing system overload. Apple is said to be working with their developers on a fix.
Apple also refuted speculation that the overheating was caused by the new titanium frame, which is more difficult to dissipate heat. According to Apple, it’s the exact opposite – the titanium frame is said to dissipate heat better than the previous stainless steel construction. The patch update is not expected to have any impact on the phone’s performance, Apple has refuted speculation that the overheating is caused by the poorly designed A17 Pro chipset, which will need to be underclocked.
