There’s at least three problems that they know about if you bring the phone to Apple they’re gonna act like they don’t know anything one of the text came up to me and said it’s going to need another update or two… also some of the phones after three days the battery gets used to the charging and it stops getting warm while charging which mine has done but at eight 8 o’clock in the morning my phone is at 100% for my iPhone 15 Pro Max and by 12 in the afternoon I’m down to 69% and by 5 o’clock I’m at 40 my 14 Pro Max hundred percent at 8 AM all day long at 9 PM it would be on 50%… I can almost guarantee that when they start making the phones for the next batch, some of the problems gets fixed, this is what happens when we all buy the first ones. I should’ve waited till the end of November.

Having the same problem on the iPhone 15 pro (not max).


brand new phone, battery draining fast.


it also overheated while using maps, so much so it was forced to close maos from the Home Screen after only 3 or so minutes of use.


very disappointing.


need a software fix asap, or maybe the new titanium case isn’t good at keeping cool.

Same thing happening with me. Got the 15 Pro Max in the mail Friday, the drain on the battery is ridiculous! As others have said it will drain very fast just using the phone, and get hot! Now I remember why in the past I wait about 6pm the after a new iPhone comes out, to make sure they have things in order. I really hope they have fixes coming very soon, as with many of you all, I need my long battery life, and this was supposed to be even better?
