The update for October 3rd is as follows. This post was first published on his Saturday, September 30th.
The latest iPhone was released about a week ago. Since then, some users have commented that their phones have become hotter than expected. It can get quite hot in some cases. In the last few minutes, Apple has exclusively reached out to me to talk about what’s going on.
Here’s what Apple has to say: “We’ve identified several conditions that can cause your iPhone to run warmer than expected. During the first few days after setting up or restoring your device, increased background activity may cause your device to run hotter than expected. You may feel warm.”
This is as expected. When you set up a new iPhone, for example all the apps, photos, and music you got on your previous phone are re-downloaded, it takes a long time for the new device to complete all the work, and sometimes it overheats. It means that you are. as soon as possible. But interestingly, that’s not all.
Apple also said, “We have also found a bug in iOS 17 that affects some users and will be fixed in a software update. Another issue includes a recent update to a third-party app that may overload the system. “Loading is involved. We are working with these app developers to deploy a fix.”
This is great news. It’s not something users have to face in the long run. I would like to add that not everyone is affected by this issue, for example the iPhone I tested for review did not have this issue at all.
There was a lot of speculation that this could be due to the new titanium material, which is one of the big updates for the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. This never made sense to me, especially since iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus users have reported overheating, and titanium is not used in these devices.
Additionally, Apple has consistently maintained that titanium, combined with the aluminum underlying structure, provides better heat dissipation. Certainly better than his previous stainless steel iPhone Pro models. According to Apple, the design of the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro does not cause overheating.
Apple says some apps are known to raise your temperature not just physically, but emotionally as well. For example, Instagram, Uber, and Asphalt 9 can all cause your iPhone to heat up, and Apple is working with app developers to address this issue and investigate whether other apps are causing this. doing. Instagram hears that he introduced the fix in an update on September 27th. Therefore, we recommend making sure your iPhone is on the latest version (version 302).
We hear that iOS 17.1, an update to iOS 17 that is currently in beta, will not reduce performance to address temperature issues on iPhones.
Other culprits include large USB-C power adapters that exceed 20 W, which can cause temporary temperature increases. Even if you have a suitable charger that complies with the USB-C PD (power delivery) standard and has a high wattage, iPhone automatically adjusts its power consumption and is safe to use.
Finally, Apple emphasizes that iPhone and other iOS and iPadOS devices have built-in protections to prevent overheating, so there is no risk to iPhone safety or long-term performance. If the temperature inside your iPhone rises above normal ranges, it adjusts the temperature to protect your components.
Updated on October 3rd. The recent overheating problem has entered a new phase. Now, it appears that his BMW car is causing serious problems with wireless charging for his iPhone. This may not be limited to the latest models or just BMWs.
I discovered the BMW problem. mcroomersAnd it seems that if you place your iPhone 15 on a wireless charging pad, you may not be able to use the Apple Digital Car Key feature, as well as the NFC chip used for Apple Pay.
But now it seems like there are more phones and more cars involved.according to 9to5 mac According to a new report, some users have also found the same issue on iPhone 14 models, including the iPhone 14 Pro Max. content creator Aaron Zorro tweeted. “This is the same with iPhone 14 models. It’s more like a cell phone heater than a cell phone charger. I experienced the same thing with my Audi. My phone got so hot that I couldn’t touch it, so… I stopped using my Audi wireless charger. It happened with my iPhone 14 Pro Max and 15 Pro Max.”
And it looks like the Tesla QI charger can also make the iPhone 12 Pro Max surprisingly hot.
If the bug is in iOS 17, as Apple says, it might be a good idea to avoid your car’s wireless charger for the time being and rely on the USB-C cable that comes with your new iPhone. This does not explain the ban on NFC chips, but it is just another reason to be careful at this time.
