IPhone X serious overheating problem! ⚠️⚠️⚠️

the IPhone X is having overheating problems and we would appreciate that iPhone X got the 17.6 version software update, the IPhone X is overheating a lot when gaming and this should be helped, the whole iPhone X community is having this issue and we would love to see a new update on the IPhone X since it’s been a long time, i don’t want to switch to android because I believe in apple and I believe they will fix the fps drops/lag and overheating. Love from MrBreast💝

iPhone X, iOS 16

Hello ~ Your iPhone X is not and will never be compatible with iOS 17. What’s your battery health %?

Go to Settings >>> Battery >>> Battery Health & Charging.

If at or below 80% you need a new battery.

The iPhone X does not have the processing power to run iOS 17.

If it could run iOS 17.......(it can't).....everything on the screen would run in super slow motion and the phone would overheat even more.

As far as overheating......when was the last time that you replaced the battery in the iPhone X?

What is the current reading for Maximum Capacity on the battery?
