Apple has acknowledged user complaints that iPhone 15 and 15 Pro phones are overheating, reports Forbes, but said that contrary to speculation, it has nothing to do with the phone’s hardware design. Forbes noted an update to Instagram has already rolled out with version 302, released September 27th, to address some of the issues.

    I have a titanium flashlight and it sucks for heat dissipation. It overheats very quickly. I would bet it has something to do with it.

        The iPhone 15 base models are still Aluminum. Also the iPhone 15 pro models are only titanium on the sides (all the way around the phone). The chassis is still Aluminum and the back is still glass.

            Maybe, but I liked that you found the thermal conductivity for the different materials. I hadn’t even considered that it probably wasn’t the titanium until I started thinking about how those numbers for stainless and titanium were pretty close!

      The Ti in the new pros is just a band around some aluminum, and this issue is being reproduces on the aluminum phones, old stainless steel phones, iPads, etc.

      All signs are starting to point to software now.
