iPhone 12 Pro Overheating

Hello Friend,

The device (so called iPhone 12pro) gets heated above 44 degree centigrade and no warning still showing from apple built in sensor .

Do you expect us to wait till boiling point (100 degree centigrade) for the buit in sensors to wake up!!

its definitely an manufacturing defect!!

May be some people may be comfortable to hold a device which such overheating in very mild usage..( just remove your case and try to hold and feel the hot plate effect..

it’s an overheating iPhone 12 Pro-

Now please don’t tell that its a added feature to fight the winter.

there is a lot of difference between the term warm and overheating.. how simply you have said it without experiencing the same ( may be your device is okay)

I am really facing overheating issues on my iPhone 12 Pro..

It does happen with other models. Mine is an iphoneX which was a perfect phone for 1.5 years until the upgrade to iOS14. Now it’s a piece of junk. Overheating 44Centigrade just charging or checking mails most background activities already stopped etc. Hot enough to get tour ear burnt when you talk on the phone. FaceID stopped working keep telling me I have to wait until the phone has cooled down. But I get this message when the phone is hot as well as when the phone is cold. Not anywhere will you see a post that someone solved the issue or used Apple support or genii is bar and had it fixed.

Do you have proof of that 44ºC from a thermometer?

Millions of people do not have this problem, so if you want to work to solve it, please create a new thread and people will be happy to work with you on it, or you can contact Apple Support directly:

You’re closer to the truth than you realize.

The processor in the iPhone 12 family is the most powerful and capable of all iPhones yet and yes, that means heat generation.

Likewise its larger battery can mean more heat when charging.

Trust the phone to shut down if it gets too hot and unless it does don’t worry about what you consider overheating based upon older, less capable devices.

Ok, got it.

If no error message or shutdown, it’s technically not overheating.

But it is still very hot.

Hot enough to burn a scar into the leather in my brand new Range Rover armrest.

In 30-45 seconds, not resting there for an hour.

Be careful. It may not be technically overheating, but hot enough to cause damage.

My iphone 12 pro is also having severe overheating issue even in mild usuage also.

especially when in 5g network and on camera usuage with flash on!!

Shown to apple store genius three times, but they are notaccepting the manufacture defect of the product instead trying to bluff around and dis nothing. Simply returned the phone .☹️☹️☹️

I am having the exact same problem on my 12 pro max.Whenever i put my brightness up and using my phone or Whenever I’m playing C.O.D or PUBG on my phone, the phone gets super hot like really really hot!! It kinda gets very uncomfortable while your playing or just scrolling through insta on high brightness. I never had this issue on previous iPhones.

I have a problem on my 12 pro max over heating and I took to Apple store and discuss about the over heating issue but they said its normal and no one complaint about over heating issue. Still facing lots of problems Whenever i brightness up and using my phone the phone gets hot its extreme level hot my hand feel like burnt out then I put new cover still the cover is hot and screen is dark. I feel like to return this phone very uncomfortable. I never had this issue on previous iPhones.

Im used to it now... if i know that i will be using the Phone for a longtime like im on Zoom meeting i always make sure there is electric fan on,, pointing to my phone it really works not to overheat and not to shutdown.. apple should give portable fan for those who is buying this

“ iphone 12 “ 😊 seriously...

I have now identified that my I-phone 12 overheats to the point of shutting off when it is in the charging tray in my car and running google maps every single time. I will contact support to discuss this as this is not acceptable.

Has anyone tied it to a specific carrier? I have Verizon and the only thing I haven't replaced is the SIM card. I read somewhere that the 5G sim cards could cause the issue. At work, my boss has the same exact phone (size and model) and has never had an issue.

My IPhone 12Pro , got this in November and from March, it started getting hot while I take photo and while talking.

so, I believe it’s a software related issues which is possible to be resolved by Apple.

but battery drainage is awful. Even when lm not using this , battery drops...with full usage, unable keep the battery for more than 6 to 7 hours.

I have purchased iPhone 12pro from India .

Apple has just given c type cable . So taken the 20w c type adapter. While charging I observed the adapter is too hot and seen the phone is also too hot. I am doubtful on it , When I asked vendor he has suggested switch off net while charging. I tried that still the issue is same. it charge too fast in 20 min it completed almost 80 percentage however It’s too hot adapter as well as mobile.

I tried charging using my dell latitude laptop it also charge fast and no heat . Mobile get charged without heat issue.

Apple has to look in to it or else phones may get damaged or should ask to use small adapter or so

please help me to understand this.

Thanks.

I just bought iPhone 12 Pro Max. It heats up by the volume buttons area about one third of the screen is affected. Then it freeze and after many tries it flicker and then start again. It’s very disappointing since I spent a lot of money for something that it frozen about four times in two days.

I got the iPhone 12promax and it has overheated twice already. Once I had it under my pillow and once I took it out of my purse and each time it was burning hot. I shut off almost all apps and I clear the background and history but nothing changed. Won’t buy an iPhone again, way too much money to have all this problems.
