Apple Attributes Software-Related Bug for Overheating Issues
According to Apple, iPhones get warm during its first few days of usage as the device is working to set up and restore user's data. The company attributed its overheating issue to the latest iOS 17 software bug.
In addition, third-party apps are also to blame for overloading the system. Apple assured in a statement that the company will iron out the issues upon the release of a software update.
On the other hand, Apple denied claims that the issue lies on the hardware of the iPhone 15 Pro line. At its launch, iPhone 15 Pro line boasted a titanium frame and an A17 Pro chip that promised a smooth gaming activity. Some researchers have attributed these big changes to the overheating problem.
