Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
Bought iphone 12pro max a month ago. This morning whilst reading news on the phone. It became hot. First I moticed it became slow then it was heating up. I had to remove the cover and switched off untill it cooled down. Noticed heating was coming from near camera
The cellular radios are located there, and you were likely using a lot of cellular bandwidth and/or were in an area with poor signal, requiring the radios to be turned up to higher power levels.
Could be lot of cellular band but will observe
Normal for the device to get warm during a strain on it. Game play is the worst but switching cellular to Wi-Fi or bouncing between towers also cause a load.
It can’t be gaming
