Brand new iPhone 12 is showing a very alarming signs with the overheating issue, only two applications were opened and the phone started to get hot.

Apple should start recalling all iPhone 12 that have sold so far before it’s too late.

iPhone 13 mini overheating Our iPhone 13 mini (purchased new at Apple Store in April) becomes too hot to hold after a 20 minute phone call. Current iOS, no other apps running, background app refresh off, and all other steps taken including hardware reset/wipe/re-install. Apple Store ran diagnostics and found no issues. As long as it doesn’t shut off/reset, they said that there is nothing to do except turn it off for 2 hours and restart. That’s not acceptable. We’re at our wits end. I could see if we were gaming, playing videos for extended time, but a simple phone call in a cool house should not cause this. Any ideas on how to get this defective phone replaced? Thanks in advance, Bonnie
