iPhone 12 Pro Overheating

My iPhone 12 Pro has been overheating after minimal use. Today it started overheating after NO use. Disappointing. I also frequently lose LTE service in areas I always had service on my old phone. I've had an iPhone for many years and have never had a problem with them. I regret buying the 12 Pro. My 8 Plus worked fine. Huge mistake.

After being “ nearly” OK for few days, yesterday while charging in the car and using 2 apps at the same time ( google maps and radio) It got really hot again. Very disappointed , I think I have to go the local Apple store and see what are they going to do about it ☹️.

The first disappointment from an Apple product

!

I’m having the same issue. Not while charging thus far, but while doing the bare minimum on my phone - playing a game, browsing, etc. I keep background apps closed as well. Very concerned because this is the most expensive device yet and seems like there is a major issue.

I’ve been using my iphone 12 for 3 days now , it overheats aloooot knowing that im using the cable it came with and the apple power adapter ?! Also it seems to lose battery fast with not that much apps in the background either mainly whatsapp facebook apps only , i never experienced that with any of my ore ious iphones

As I just posted on the US site after switching down 5G to 4G in the mobile network settings the phone finally started cooling down. I expect that battery drain will now normalise. I have 5G from T-mobile.

I think apple and T-Mobile have work to do ...

Makes you wonder what 5G is doing to your phone that causes this massive overheating and related battery drain problem...

Same I. Have 12 pro max and Tmobile and my **** was so hot my mom called it burning and freaked out said I should put it in cold water or in the fridge and I was like well it would make sense but components expand and contract and your never want to go from super hot to cold super fast with anything wether glass or pottery or silicon or transistors

Just sent it back to Apple, 12 pro amd MagSafe.

In more than 10 years I was happy with my new phones, very upset I had to send it back, I can’t justify to pay $1600 for a phone in general and for this model in specific.

Anyways, anyone know where can I get new 11 pro 512gb?

Only places I see it, like bestbuy, it cost like brand new 12 pro so not sure what’s the deal. :(

Imagine not knowing what Forbes is omg even rappers who aren’t very educated know about getting on the Forbes list as a dream goal

you need to work less overtime and read a bit more **** from Forbes magazine maybe as a start. Culture is important and can be a life changing experience!

I purchased a 12 pro max and I’m having the same issue with overheating. I haven’t yet updated my service to 5G, and the phone is very hot to the touch. Support claims it’s just because the phone is doing so much while restoring, but I haven’t had this issue before with other iPhones. It’s pretty bad so I’ll likely return the product.

I think all new iphone 12 are infected by CORONA VIRUS , high fever 🤒🥵 , dunno what’s the deal with apple , should we wait for the vaccine or what ??!, they haven’t spoke or released any anything regarding the overheating major problem. It’s a shame !!

I received my iPhone 12 pro max this morning. I experienced overheating while transferring my data from my iPhone 11 Pro Max to my new phone. I find sweaty fingers holding the back of the phone as unpleasant. I am not experiencing this problem with the 11 pro max.

Just got a iphone12, easily get overheat for normal browsing at reading news and fb after a few minute. It get worst if you are not using wifi but 4G Line.

not sure is battery, processor or software faulty.

I just bought the iPhone 12 yesterday and purchased the new charger to go with it. I’m having the same issue. The phone gets extremely hot and I’m concerned it could cause damage. I’m not running apps in the background, I’m just checking email and browsing safari. Not a good start!!

I just got my iphone 12 pro max yesterday. Today i plugged in my phone to charge, went for quick shower and when i came back its very hot near upper part opposite side of the camera. The screen was off, wifi is on. No app is running. I got worried thats why i came to search if im the only one and surprisingly, NOT. For a so expensive phone i am expecting more from apple. Disappointed on 2nd day.. haysyss.

There is also a video on youtube, where the iPhone 12 shoots up to 45 degree c after few mins of gaming.

I feel the iPhone 11 is far better, it never heats up even after hours of game play.
