Apple’s new iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max are hot property — quite literally.
The phones have only been on sale since Sept. 22, but the issue is just one of several problems plaguing those who’ve forked out up to $1,599 for the premium models.
Tech content creator Mohit Verma kickstarted the conversation about the device’s heat in a post shared on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday.
“The natural titanium iPhone 15 Pro gets extremely hot, so much so that it becomes difficult to hold,” he wrote. “Furthermore, it heats up after just a 2-minute FaceTime call or when scrolling through reels for 8-10 minutes. This is a new issue for me, as I’ve never encountered this with any previous phone.”
