Error “Temperature iPhone needs to cool down before you can use it.“ on iPhone

The phone will randomly shut off and display a message that reads “Temperature iPhone needs to cool down before you can use it.“ But it is not warm to touch. What is the reason for it ??

Temperature warning from 3 days Hi Everyone! My iphone 13 is stuck with the Temperature warning from past 3 days. I couldn't get in even after trying restart and firmware update through iTunes. Anyone had any similar kind of situation or suggestions?

Iphone 12 mini temperature warning on screen - bug? Hi, I can't get my iphone 12 mini out from the temperature warning screen: i didn't use it all day today while at work, just when tried to unlock to make a call, message was on screen, phone was at room temperature - later at home attempted to restore & update iOS connected to my laptop - no bluetooth or wifi connectivity working either. Reset seemed to work but didn't get to initial set-up stage, temperature warning on screen interrupts it. Has anybody have this issue? How did you get it to work again? Thank you

We can't diagnose such an issue from our living rooms. If it is doing this and it's not even warm, I'd schedule an appointment at my Apple Store Genius Bar and have Apple test my phone.
