Apple has found the culprits for the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max heating problem. In a statement released today, the company blamed some third-party software and iOS 17 bugs. Accordingly, Apple will release a software update for the 15 Pro and Pro Max heating problem. This update is likely to come with iOS 17.1.
Will the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max heating problem end with the iOS 17.1 update?
The iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max heating problem revealed by Ming Chi Kuo is growing. Apple, on the other hand, blamed the problem on third-party applications running in the background in general. According to this analysis, especially Instagram has a big share in this heating problem. Again, the Uber application and the Asphalt 9 game are also among the culprits of this heating problem.
Apple is actually targeting all applications that cannot adapt to iOS 17 for the 15 Pro and Pro Max heating problem.
Apple is of the opinion that there is no hardware and design problem, especially in some analyzes. Especially Ming Chi Kuo pointed out that the Titanium case could cause a heating problem. Again, iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max models do not include additional cooling measures.
This overheating problem, which has been seen in Android flagship models until now, has recently been solved with special cooling units. Apple will probably bring the solution to this problem with the iOS 17.1 update.
Ming Chi Kuo is of the opinion that there will be a performance loss in iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max models with the upcoming iOS 17.1 update. Apple, on the other hand, announced that there will be no performance loss.
With this heating problem that we encountered last week, some 15 Pro and Pro Max reached about 46 degrees of heat. These quite serious temperatures are usually encountered in social media applications, when the device is charging and in some games.
It is important for Apple to explain that it is software-related for the heating problem, which is quite annoying. However, if the heating problem continues after the iOS 17.1 update, 15 Pro and Pro Max sales may be negatively affected.
