After its introduction to the market in September 2023, the iPhone 15, especially the Pro variant, has experienced the first problems reported by users, who have reported that the Apple device reached higher temperatures than expected, which negatively affected its performance. usage experience.
The company has released iOS 17.0.3, specifically designed to address this issue, along with other bugs that have been reported in recent days.
Apple explained that “this update includes bug fixes and important security updates, in addition to fixing an issue that may cause the iPhone to heat up more than expected.”
Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo stated that the overheating was likely caused by “compromises made in the design of the thermal system” and suggested that Apple could only fix the problem by reducing processor performance.

Apple has stated that it has no plans to make any modifications to the A17 Pro chip, and maintains that the iPhone 15 Pro’s design, made from titanium and aluminum, actually offers better heat dissipation capabilities compared to stainless steel frames. that were used in previous models.
He also indicated in a statement that the problem is not due to the components used or the quality of the product, but rather is an inconvenience caused by a malfunction of the operating system, an error that can be overcome by updating the operating system.
The company assured that the applications that are contributing to the increase in cell phone temperature would be Uber, Instagram and a game popular for its graphics such as Asphalt 9: Legends. However, the possibility that the list could be even longer and include other types of platforms is not denied.
Likewise, overheating occurs due to extensive gaming sessions or recording video in 4K quality. However, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo suggests that the iPhone 15’s thermal design, intended to achieve lighter weight, could be the cause of this problem.

Another problem found in the iPhone 15 in its Pro versions is that the new titanium body may be more prone to getting dirty with fingerprint marks and other types of smudges. Although this experience does not affect the functions of the cell phone, it is uncomfortable to have to clean the entire cell phone constantly.
Problems with slowness and poor performance of the iOS operating system have also been reported. It is important to note that this issue could be more related to the recent update to iOS 17 and not the device itself.
Additionally, many app developers have not yet released updates compatible with iOS 17 and the new iPhone, which could be negatively affecting the user experience and specific features.
