Apple has officially acknowledged iPhone 15 overheating concerns. The tech giant has identified multiple factors contributing to the warmer-than-expected temperatures and has outlined plans to address these concerns.
According to a report by Forbes.com, one of the identified issues leading to the overheating concern is a bug in the iOS 17 software. Apple has assured users that a forthcoming update will rectify this bug and improve the overall performance of the devices.
Apple explains that during the initial setup or restoration period, it is normal for the new iPhones to feel warmer due to increased background activity. The devices work diligently to re-download apps, photos, and music from the user’s old device, contributing to the temporary rise in temperature.
Initial speculations pointed to the 3nm chip as a potential culprit for the overheating in the iPhone 15 Pro series. However, Apple contends that design choices aimed at reducing the weight of the models may also play a role. The smaller heat dissipation area and the use of a titanium frame instead of traditional materials like aluminum or stainless steel could affect heat dispersal, although Apple disputes that the design is the primary cause of the overheating.
Furthermore, recent updates to third-party apps, including Asphalt 9, Instagram, and Uber, have been identified as additional contributors to the system overloads. Apple is actively collaborating with app developers to address and rectify these issues. Instagram has already released an updated app version to mitigate the problem.
Apple emphasizes that there is no safety or long-term performance risk associated with the iPhone’s temperature elevation. The devices are equipped with built-in safeguards to prevent overheating, ensuring user safety and device longevity.
To address these overheating concerns comprehensively, Apple is preparing to roll out the iOS 17.1 update. Currently in beta, this update is expected to resolve the iphone15 overheating issues without compromising the performance. Although the exact release date for iOS 17.1 is not specified, Apple assures users that it will be available soon, providing a solution to the temperature-related concerns and ensuring a seamless user experience for iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro owners.
