iPhone 14 Pro Max way too hot hot when I charge it

Brand new iPhone 14 Pro Max is way to hot when I charge it, yes using apple charger. No not in car or hot environment. What’s up with this? Btw I don’t even have a case on it yet.

Perhaps this is a Faulty iPhone?:

You might have a faulty device. So, contact Apple, seeing if you can get this replaced. Important: Have the iPhone's Serial Number with you when calling them. Note that you have a one year, out-of-the-box limited warranty on this device. So, if less and one year old, or if you covered AppleCare with this, then see if getting this replaced by Apple would be free of charge to you.

Apple Contact Info:

  • Contact Us - Choose Locations
  • Proceed from there, as necessary
  • Why the Wait: Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due to lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)

No one here has any say in devices being serviced. So, if it does not suit your needs, then I guess just move forward.

Why isn’t Apple addressing this well known problem. It’s all over the web and other conversations on other apple forums. This is not a software issue it’s hardware. This is how apple loses customers. It’s one thing when a problem arises and they acknowledge and do something but ignoring customers is another story

About a Faulty Device:

I had an issue on my 2017 MBP, and had to send it in 11 times to get this fixed (due to COVID and stores being closed. It was deemed a faulty device, and I was granted a new Mac. The connector between the LogicBoard and the screen were disconnecting.
