iPhone 15 overheating

Hi everyone. I’ve recently purchased the new iPhone 15 pro max and it is heating up even when I’m not using it.

I was wondering if anyone else is having this issue or if it maybe a setting that is causing it that I can turn off?

Any advice is appreciated. :)

This is the message I’m seeing. Last night my phone said it couldn’t continue charging until it cooled off. It was just resting on the table in a cool room.

That is the normal message you will see when using optimized battery charging. Optimized battery charging halts charging at around 80% so that the battery can cool down. It's a way of preserving battery life. It does NOT mean the phone is overheating.



If your phone is actually overheating, you will see this screen:



You will not be able to do anything with the phone except make an emergency call until it cools down.
