iPhone 15 hot when charging

Hi everyone


Iphone 15 gets quite warm while charging with apple 20W adapter, on the left side it is difficult to even touch, as soon as it reaches ~75% battery level, it starts cooling down and this problem is not observed after 75% charging (even at 90 or 100%), only till 70-75% phone gets heated.


Did anyone observe the same? software is updated.

My iPhone port keeps telling me there’s liquid in there after 8 hours of sleep with my phone in my bed nowhere near water, always over heating when charging even when using normal it gets super hot won’t cool down until you turn it off had this phone for just over a year

Keeping an iPhone in a bed while charging is literally ONE OF THE WORST places one could possibly charge their phone. It can't breath and the heat is kept in. It's no wonder your iPhone is heating up if you are charging it in your bed while you sleep. You REALLY REALLY should NOT do this.

I experience this quite a lot. And my battery life is now down to 96%. I've had my phone since Feb 2024 only.

Since it is more common to lose about 1% Battery Health per month of ownership, you should be pleased your battery is performing better than normal. You've owned your phone for nearly 9 months, it would be within the range of normal for you to have lost 9% by now. Yet you've only lost 4%, which is excellent.
