Are you uneducated low-IQ ignorant iKooks seriously claiming that all these
many well-respected magazine and testing editors are liars, Jolly Roger?

You're _that desperate_ to brazenly deny all truth about Apple products JR?

I don't think that charging your phone should make it that hot.

I fully and completely understand your argument because it has been Apple's
argument from day one that all Apple design flaws are the consumers' fault.

It's teh consumer's fault that Apple advertised this iPhone as a gamers'
phone, and it's the consumers fault that this iPhone failed at that task.

It's _always_ consumers' fault whenever Apple products have design flaws.

They definitely have some pride in being ""perfect"" and deflect their
issues.

JR seems to have been referring to the benchmark heat issue in that post.

The nine-to-five-mac article was talking about overheating while charging.

We're supposed to ignore that, because: troll. 😉

There's speculation is that this is a software issue, since owners of
older model iPhones are also reporting increased heat after upgrading to
iOS 17. And that would make a lot more sense than the "iPhone 15 has a
hardware defect" narrative the trolls are trying to push here.

Notice how weak Wally's lies are - Apple has not yet made an official
statement about this issue.

It talked about both, actually. A two part article.

Post the link to part 2, and show us where it appears in the article

I believe it, myself. The obsession with making things thinner was going
to going significant problems for cooling no matter what they did.
Still, my iPhone 13 never gets warm and my MacBook Air M1 never gets
warmer than 33c (I checked).

It's a review-type article, so they will obviously test things to the
limits and beyond, possibly even with early production models. Wait and
see if *normal* users actiually report such issues.

They'll probably need to follow Samsung's lead and use vapor chamber
cooling.
<https://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/what-is-vapor-chamber-cooling-smartphones-tested-explained/>.

For Snapdragon SOCs and Samsung SOCs there is really no choice, they
generate too much heat to use just heat pipes because the 5G modem is
integrated.

For the Bionic chips, Apple was able to avoid the expense and the space
needed by vapor chamber cooling because the modem is a separate device
but the Bionic chips are getting more complex, adding more transistors
and increasing the amount of heat generated.

Eventually, Apple will integrate their own 5G modem into the Bionic and
then they'll likely be forced to use vapor chamber cooling but that
likely won't happen until the iPhone 19 or 20 depending on how the modem
development goes. They'll likely first go with a separate modem chip in
the 17 and 18 before integrating it into the Bionic.

Initially, Kuo believed that the iPhone 14 Pro would use vapor chamber
cooling but it did not. The issue with vapor chamber cooling is that it
could add maybe 0.2-0.3mm to the thickness of the phone. The 15 Pro
actually went down in thickness by 0.1mm. OTOH, Would any user would be
upset about a fraction of a mm increase in thickness?

You're assuming (without evidence) that this is a hardware issue. I've
seen owners of other models reporting that after upgrading to iOS 17
their devices got hot too. I've also seen widely varying reports of what
devices are doing during the heat generation. Some report it while doing
resource-intensive operations, and other while relatively idle. So it's
a little early to make such assumptions. For all we know this is simply
a software defect that will be fixed in a future update.

I love Apple's newer devices but there is no denying that style has a
lot to do with the product they're selling (despite the fact that the
MacBook Air 15 is butt ugly). As such, the extra fraction of a mm in
thickness would likely bother the people who don't know a thing about
the internals, but want their device to be the bee's knees in terms of
looks. It's the price Apple to pay for insisting on attracting both
computer users and idiots who only buy technology to be noticed.

Style matters in consumer products.

This is not news.

But smaller and lighter are also useful in and of themselves.

My iPhone 13 gets hot sometimes when I’m charging her, she’s sunbathing on
my car seat, or wearing that negligee I bought for special occasions.

I guess I’ll skip iPhone 15 since unlucky 13 is doing fine so far.

It could be a faux pas that doesn’t affect me. My phone does get quite warm
sometimes. Better luck with iPhone 16. Since I am not affected I guess I
don’t really care. iOS 17 did shit to Do Not Disturb I detailed on another
thread that I had to figure out. Grrr! I survived.

Why should style matter at all for a phone?
What should matter is the performance of the phone.
Who cares what the phone looks like? It's just a rectangle.

Explain why Apple sells more phones than any other phone company then.
You've apparently lost touch with reality.

It always matters. Aesthetics matter a lot more than performance to the
average customer. If something is heavy, then people won't want it. If it's
sharp, people won't want it. If its ugly, people won't want it. Much
different than something like a server which you will never look at.

Why should style matter for anything?

Because PEOPLE are PEOPLE.
