It’s not normal. I just upgraded today from an XR and that phone never overheated like this in the 4 years I’ve had it. I’m taking this new one back to the store tomorrow.

Hi, I have the similar issue after getting my 14PM. Went to Apple Store. Diagnosis checked, nothing unusual but deep down in our heart we know it’s not normal. I went to hard resetting my iphone. Meaning to say reset it only with iCloud photo back up. It turns out the phone back to normal. I think the root of cause is when we map everything from old iPhone to new iPhone, it just don’t work. Attached is my battery life after usage. Hope it helps.

I upgraded from 11 Pro to 14 Pro and it’s a great hand warmer for the Winter! Not normal and I went to Verizon today to get a new one. On back order and I had to pay $112 sales tax for them to ship a new 14 Pro to my house. The Verizon guy said the overheating is a hardware issue and a few customers have returned their phones as well. I never had this issue with 11 Pro and it’s not normal. The battery drains by 40% in 2 hours. This one is a dud!
