iPhone 15 Pro: Apple’s latest release, the iPhone 15 Pro, has been facing several overheating complaints from users. While the company has yet to provide an official statement on the matter, various media reports have suggested different potential causes. Some claim that the use of Android-type USB-C charging cables might be the culprit behind the heating issue. Others believe that the thermal design could be at fault. However, Apple has hinted that a software update might be the solution to this problem.
In addition to heating issues, users of the iPhone 15 Pro have reported other problems such as scratches on the device and alignment issues.
Why the Overheating?
Recent reports have pointed towards the A17 Pro chipset as the primary reason behind the heating issue. This chipset is integrated into both the iPhone 15 Pro and the iPhone 15 Pro Max. According to Apple expert Ming-Chi Kuo, the new A17 Pro chipset in the iPhone 15 Pro series may be the primary cause of the overheating problem.
Kuo has also noted that the phone’s design, intended to make it lightweight with its thermal system, could also contribute to the overheating. The titanium frame of the phone might impede the heat dissipation, leading the device to become hotter during operation. Nonetheless, it is believed that Apple might address the iPhone 15 Pro’s heating issues with an upcoming software update.
Specifications of the iPhone 15 Pro Model
The iPhone 15 Pro boasts a 6.1-inch screen display with Super Retina XDR. It comes with an Always-On Display feature. This model supports iOS 17, which also includes a standby mode. Both the iPhone 15 Pro and the iPhone 15 Pro Max are powered by the A17 Pro chipset. Furthermore, the Pro model is equipped with a 48-megapixel camera and also features a USB-C port.
As consumers await a possible solution from Apple, it remains to be seen how these reported issues will impact the iPhone 15 Pro’s standing in the market.
