It’s not just wireless charging causing excessive heat on this gen.

I had to stop using wireless charging in my car (and subsequently everywhere) because the phone overheated. Then it started throwing overheating errors while charging plugged in.

Maybe these batteries are taking a thermal beating.

Checking in with an iPhone 14 Pro at 96% since release, which doesn’t sound bad but is markedly worse than the last several iPhones I’ve had.

Exactly like mine. 96% since release. I’m using AOD and 99% wireless charging.

It’s ok, never had any issues with my battery life that I ran out of energy.

We probably have to accept, that these battery’s are performing at their very limit and have no thermal system to keep them in a specific temperature range.

My iPhone X was about the same. In installed a new battery when it was 2.5 years old and I used it for 5 years. I will probably do the same with my 14 Pro.

I get overheating warnings even when charging via Lightning on the 14 Pro...
