Many users are reporting burns on Apple’s newest iPhone 15 Pro, suggesting it may have a serious overheating issue. Before its official launch, some reviewers had already expressed concerns about the A17 Pro’s chip overheating.

iPhone 15 Pro users share overheating problems

Many people on social media are sharing photos of burns on their hips and fingers, saying that they are caused by overheating of the iPhone 15. They believe these cases are real and emphasize the importance of experiencing such problems to truly understand them.

Apple has acknowledged the overheating issue. They stated that the iPhone 15 Pro may get hotter than normal, especially in the first days of use. This indicates that the initial setup or recovery of the device may push the device to operate at higher temperatures.

Some tech experts believe that Apple may have sacrificed effective heat dissipation to make the iPhone 15 Pro thinner and lighter. This model has a smaller heat output area, which can lead to overheating. Another reason may be the new titanium frame used in its construction. This material transfers heat faster than the old stainless steel frame, possibly contributing to the problem.

Aside from the heating issue, some iPhone 15 Pro users have also reported issues with the NFC chips, especially after charging their phones on BMW’s wireless pads. This affected features like Apple Pay and digital car keys. Apple has not yet fully resolved this problem, but users are advised to be careful when using BMW chargers.
