Electric shocks from iPhone 12 Pro Max

I have had my iPhone 12 ProMax for a few years now, and it is a beautiful phone, in great condition. BUT, about a month ago, I had my phone in my pocket and I got the worst electric shock that went through my body. It has happened many times now, so much so I am giving people around me electric shocks too. I have spoken to apple support, and have taken it in-store, and it has been tested by apple engineers and technicians, and the report said that this is normal for static shocks to occur?!


Well, I do not want to keep on getting electric shocks and I do not want buy a new phone (like money grows on tree's!!) and I have read that the iPhone 12 is a faulty model, with the highest radiation?

Has anyone else had the same experience, if so, what did you do?

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 17
