iPhone 15 series overheating complaints flood Internet
The issue appears to be exacerbated when the phone is plugged in for charging.

Many Apple device consumers are complaining about the overheating problem of the newly released iPhone 15 series on the internet
Reports are pouring in from frustrated customers who claim that their new devices are prone to overheating during usage and charging, casting a shadow over Apple’s flagship product.
Complaints have flooded Apple forums and social media platforms, with users expressing concern over the device becoming uncomfortably warm while gaming, making phone calls, or using FaceTime.
The issue appears to be exacerbated when the phone is plugged in for charging.
Apple’s technical support staff have been inundated with calls on the matter and have been directing customers to an older support article on managing hot or cold iPhones.
This notice suggests that overheating may occur during intensive app use, charging, or initial device setup.
Apple, headquartered in Cupertino, California, has remained tight-lipped regarding these complaints, leaving users speculating about the root cause of the issue.
As the iPhone accounts for a substantial portion of Apple’s revenue, any product flaws are scrutinized intensely. While some problems can be resolved through software updates, others may fade with time. Apple usually subjects its products to rigorous testing to catch potential pitfalls before mass production.
The overheating issue could be related to the iPhone setup process, which can be processor-intensive, particularly when re-downloading apps and data from iCloud.
Users have also suggested that certain background apps, such as Instagram or Uber, might exacerbate the problem.
Videos of users measuring the phone’s temperature with thermometers have surfaced online, with one user reporting, “iPhone 15 Pro Max gets really hot easily.”
However, it’s not a universal problem, as some users have reported no issues or found that using a protective case mitigated the heat.
This development follows recent complaints about the FineWoven material used in iPhone 15 cases, highlighting potential quality concerns with Apple’s latest product offerings.
