This is why I never buy a version 1.0 of anything; car, phone etc iPhone 15 Pro Sales Threatened By Phones Overheating Up To 122 Degrees

| Thank you Very little  |

That's why we are going to wait until next year to upgrade our phones to a 13 or 14. _____________ | |||

There's absolutely no excuse for this whatsoever. Apple's engineers, in attempting breakthrough case design materials, should have had the good sense to have tested the designs beyond the worst-case expected performance demands. That's just a normal and expected part of any design and development process. Of course: Maybe they did and some PHBs overrode their counsel. BTDT. (It always ended badly.)

What even funnier about Crap-ple is the “new design” it breaks much easier because the metal rear plate is now not apart of the rear plate. Another great design by Apple. What a joke. Oh forgot now you get a 5x lens camera for that phone, a huge leap forward from that 3x. Oh and you can have this new Apple Watch that’s the same as the previous watch , that was the same as the one before that. That was the same design as the one before that. Apple died with Steve Jobs.

iPhones have always run incredibly hot during long gaming sessions. Go check out the Max Tech channel on Youtube where they use thermal cameras during high stress gaming tests. This has been an Apple problem for several generations. It's not anything new. Just click bait. | |||

What version do you wait for; 16, 17? | |||

There’s a lot to be said about poor quality control these days, but most of the iPhone 15P heat-related hyperbolic news/clickbait dogpile seems to be related to the Instagram app causing issues. Glad to see we have a thread-based opportunity for a disgruntled dogpile here, at least outside of the other Apple threads.

So, if you're not gaming no big deal? Wife just replaced her 7 with a 15. I've been thinking of trading my 12 Pro Max on a new 15 Pro Max. Only going to be a couple hundred bucks. I'm interested in the satellite SOS capability. Not too worried about impact resistance as I always have my phones in an Otterbox Defender and I use the good screen protector. | |||

Basically any long term processor intensive tasks will generate high heat levels, but graphics intensive games are the most common. Something else in that review I linked also goes into the USB-C port and the different USB hubs and accessories you can now hook up to your iPhone and run from your phone that the old Lightning port wouldn't power properly or needed an extra dongle to sort of make work. I've got a USB-C headphone DAC that will transmit aptX Adaptive signals to bluetooth headphones for better sound quality Apple's integrated bluetooth chip can't reach. | |||

I wouldn’t be so sure about that. Reading reports that people having the phone get uncomfortably hot during Instagram and Facebook use too. Not just gaming. They clearly went bleeding edge possibly too far bleeding edge with this. | |||

Just the annual media reports making something out of nothing “Let’s see if it can survive a fall from 12,000ft and still work…. It broke!!! I told you it was a piece of crap” Let’s bend it in half and see if it springs back” I laugh at these types of articles. Yes I have a 15 pro max. No heat issues here. My 14 ran hotter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Live today as if it may be your last and learn today as if you will live forever | |||

maybe, maybe not. 122 degrees F is above what is considered "safe" for extended-time skin contact. But, what we have not seen is data from a real thermal engineer who works in a real thermal test lab. WSJ talking to some idiot who measured 122 deg certainly gets clicks, but where are the test results from a real (certified) test lab ? There are plenty of these certified labs, around. They run about $300 per hour. Let's see some real results and not just results from someone who bought a thermometer off of Ebay. Shit, if someone brought me test results like this, the first thing I'd ask is for the NIST traceable calibration cert for that thermometer. but that said, maybe it's a problem, maybe not. we just don't have any real data that we can trust yet. ---------------------- Let's Go Brandon! | |||

Yet we do have thermal images of several genereations of iPhone being this hot with repeatable data. In regards to Facebook and Instagram, a software bug in the apps and how they work on iOS 17 is likely the culprit and will get patched either by Apple or by the app developer like it always has been. It's not new and just like your CUT says, ignored facts still exist. | |||

Told cops where to go for over 29 years… |
Evidently, according to video “reviews” it also won’t stand up to: Being blowtorched Carved on with a utility knife Being folded in half Hurling it at a brick wall Not sure how I have made it 20+ years with cell phones and avoided all of those hazardous situations that evidently should be part of the QC testing protocols.  My 15 Pro Max should arrive in a couple weeks, sounds like I may be able to save on our winter heating bills. What part of "...Shall not be infringed" don't you understand???  | |||
