iPhone 14 Pro Max overheating

Overuse of apps can cause your iPhone 14 Pro Max to overheat.

It really depends on what you are using it for

Bought iphone 14 pro and 14 pro max both overheating with normal use !!! I visit apple and they say it’s normal 😄😄really !! It was hot like a **** and they said no it’s normal , then they run a diagnostic and tell me the results it ok 👍😂 now i have two issues my iphones overheating and the diagnostic that made by apple

Hi, I have seen quite a few people talk about the overheating is it something that apple has taken note of ? A quick search will show multiple people all sharing the same concerns in regards to the overheating of the iPhone 14/pro/pro max

Me toi I experice the overheating on my iphone 14promax while using it on just specific app facebook. Other than facebook there is no problem. Already contacted the apple support and done with the restore but they don't seem to find anything wrong with my phone

Could you please guide me through the process of getting it replaced? Did you have to pay extra for the replacement, and how exactly did you get apple care to replace it?

I would be really grateful for the response, as I have the same problem.

Have a nice day! :)

My iPhone 14 pro max overhead when I use CarPlay ? My old phone XS never hot ? I would like remplacer another phone ( I buy a few months I still have garantie)

but Apple Store Saint Catherine Montreal don’t resolve? Why not?

I so scary it’s fire 🔥 but I don’t know what to do?

I’m so disappointed !

If I may, I believe that it is because it would be reasonable to think that a newer and more powerful cpu would be coupled with a newer and more efficient heat dissipation system, adequate enough to handle the increased power consumption.

If running those apps the way annemiek178 was, makes heavy use of the cpu and gpu enough so that it causes the device to heat up to unexpected levels ( kind of have to assume most people that are here posting have some experience using portable tech devices, thus have certain reference point of mobile operating temperatures ), then it’s more of a device workload performance expectation/ not knowing app resource consumptions. Could also be the device is not operating as intended/built/programmed.

Not sure why you wouldn’t hope/expect your newest piece of tech would operate effortlessly, without feeling heat build up as if it were an older devices struggling to work through newer programming/tech.

You answers in this thread attempt to provide some guidance and help to folks, though there seems to be a bit of dismissiveness and rational detachment as well.

Then maybe you want to explain how an iPhone in flight mode, in the bag -without touching the phone- is so hot and my %100 charge after 3 hours became %40.

So what you are saying is if iPhone didn't close itself. It is fine right ?

Unfortunately it is not. I am using iPhone since iPhone 4. I know it is not. But Apple keeps saying we tested it. And it is alright. I can't even charge my phone with apple fast charger. Phone stops charging due to overheating.

I recently got the iPhone 14pm the first time l charged it. It got really scary hot. And since then whenever I’m on Marketplace or streaming anything it heats up. Especially near the top half of the phone back and front. I laid the phone on my husband while

he was asleep. And it woke him up it was so hot. It worries me because obviously it’s different from my other iPhones in the past.

But also because they say the part that’s harmful to humans with regards to cell phone use is worse when they heat up. It’s just not normal. Probably not good for the phone neither. And makes it uncomfortable to hold on to. When l put a case on it the heat thing will be worse for the phone holding in all that heat, hope it’s addressed and fixed please

I buy IPhone pro max always overhead when I use Caplay about 30’

Two Apple Store check and tell me normal … now still overhead

Support Appe tell me buy thermometer take pictures for them to see .. and they still refuse remplace phone for me ..

Had iPhones for years never had one that heated up like this. Fortunately or maybe not. I’m getting another one just like it brand new from a different carrier. I’ll let y’all know if that one heats up too. Then we’ll know something’s up for sure with 14 pm

I was just playing a game called Asphalt 9 Legends and noticed that my phone got really hot and I asked a friend who was playing with me who has a 2020 iPhone SE and his phone was totally fine. I know that when you play games that requires high resources and a lot of power from the processor is fine if it gets a little hot but this is too much. Is it normal that my friend’s phone is totally fine with the same game, same settings and same time playing while mine feels like it’s going to melt??

Me too !

when I use Caplay my phone pro max 14 very hot 40 degrees C ?

I going to two Apple Store they check and still overhead ? I would like to change but they don’t agree ! No choice I buy more 2 years garantie because I think the phone something wrong !

So, l got the same phone from a different carrier. It’s a brand new IPhone 14 pro max. I don’t think it’s heating up as often as the other one, but this one does it to. They must be aware of this issue by now. Probably and expensive fix, they think is best to ignore for now. Still worries me health wise. And quite honestly it’s annoying to have your phone that hot while you’re holding it. And Summers not here yet wait til it’s humid and 100 outside.

I have the same problem with the iPhone 14 pro max, it gets extremely hot when I use it . I’m very concerned, I live in Phoenix, Az and it will be soon be subject to hot weather. Just bought the phone a week ago and am thinking of returning it. I’ve had phones get hot, but this is extreme. It’s not good!
