Oh no, sounds like it's getting cold now!
I have a 15 Pro and haven’t seen the issue yet. It makes more sense it’s tied to some of the applications and how they’re working than the entire phone itself. I checked the different applications they mentioned and I don’t have any of them installed. Not denying it’s an OS level bug (or maybe no one read the break change documentation) but it’s not happening to everyone.
"You are using it wrong"
User space software should never cause the hardware to overheat. If it does it's an issue with lower level software and/or the hardware.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Apple has identified the causes of an overheating problem with its latest iPhone series, including a software bug and using certain apps.
The tech company said it would issue an update to fix the bug in its iOS 17 software and was working with developers whose apps had overloaded its handsets.
“We have identified a few conditions which can cause iPhone to run warmer than expected,” said Apple in a statement.
Instagram, owned by Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta, modified its app last week to prevent it from heating up the device on the latest iPhone operating system.
Ben Wood, the chief analyst at CCS Insight, said: “It is interesting to see that Apple has responded to the concerns around the iPhone 15 Pro devices getting hot.
The company added that the problem was not related to a shift from its proprietary Lightning charging cable to a USB-C port that allowed it to comply with EU regulations.
The original article contains 522 words, the summary contains 155 words. Saved 70%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Wonderful.
First, they denied the problem.
Then they said that they would fix it by reducing CPU performance, and it needs an iOS update for that.
(Then I guess somebody remembered what had happened the last time when they reduced performance)
So now they are going to rename the performance reduction into "software bug".
None of that ever happened lol. That was all shitty clickbait headlines that you probably didn’t even read the articles for.
I don't think it's as much reducing performance, as it is stamping out poorly optimized cpu calls that make it work harder than it should.
Several reviewers I saw all said that the heat up issue is not consistent with doing performance work. One of them spent the whole day shooting 4k in the sun and the phone was fine. Then he went to use spotify while in airplane mode (literally on a plane) and the phone just started heating up for no reason.
Yep, this is sounding more and more like a code optimization issue
Lol true
