iPhone 15 Pro gets overheating patch

Apple Inc. rolled out a software update Wednesday to address an overheating issue that plagued some early buyers of the iPhone 15 Pro line.

The update, called iOS 17.0.3, is available as an over-the-air fix in the software update section of the iPhone settings app.

Will see. I've had my 15 Pro since international launch day, and while it gets hot it isn't too bad.
Battery life is really terrible though.

I've recently heard that if a powerbank has less charge percentage than the iPhone, the phone will start to charge the powerbank.

Any truth to this?

I know with phones & USB PD the phone with the higher amount of juice will give off charge, so the same should apply with a powerbank.

Any truth to this?

Depends on the powerbank.
If the port on the powerbank is OUT only, it will only charge the phone.
If it's an IN/OUT port, then it depends on how the powerbank manufacturer set up the device.

My Samsung Galaxy S4 used to overheat like this randomly too.

Apple using cheaper batteries in iPhone 14 and 15 series that degrade more quickly says tipster

Apple could be using cheaper batteries with lower charge cycle counts in the iPhone 14 and iPhone 15 series, according to a tipster. This could explain recent reports of iPhone 14 users observing lower than expected battery capacity in their devices after less than a year of ownership.

If anything overheats just dip it in cold water.

And did they fix it?


Apple takes care of its sheep.
Does Samsung take care of the wolves?

I’ve also had mine since international launch day and it has never felt slightly warm in hand and battery life is pretty good.

I got a new battery from Samsung when mine swelled up.
