My iPhone 16 Pro Max overheats while using the Camera app

I’ve been to Genius Bar twice. Factory reset and diagnostics. Nothing wrong with phones. Says since no warning signs coming on it’s “normal” very frustrating

Did they do anything for you

They are telling me it’s normal and unless a “warning” comes on the screen it is typical for a phone to get hot when running programs like social media and videos

My iPhone 16 Pro just started overheating watching YouTube

Mine too.

I picked mine up a few hours ago and it’s rapidly overheating as well. Unfortunate to spend this kind of money and issues on day 1

I got the 16pro an hour ago, and this was the first thing I thing I noticed! The phone got was extremely got just after activation.

Just picked up my iphone 16 pro today (10/5) as well and noticed how hot it hot when charging. Wonder if just this particular phone or they are all like this 😭😰

Even I have iPhone 16pro, noticing heating issues while using normal apps

Came here to mention the same:

just took few photos (10 or so), and my iphone 16 pro max is so hot!

This is disappointing, I will have to return it.

My iPhone 16 pro (bought a week ago) also getting too hot while connected to car through wireless CarPlay. At that time Battery also drains heavily. Unsure about the reasons.

Any confirmation on this statement?

Is it still happening

Did you return

The problem persists. I’m taking it to the Apple Store. It’s ridiculous. A simple YouTube video and in less than 1 minute it starts overheating.
