iPhone 17 Pro Max overheating during charging and call with AirPods Pro 2

My iphone 17pro max is super hot while charging too, with no app running. From your info, you mean it is normal to be super hot while charging.

Also facing it. But it seems to have been slightly better after todays 26.0.1 update. Can anyone confirm?

I am having the same issue. My phone is getting insanely hot when watching videos for 10 or so minutes.

I went from not even using my phone to just making a phone call and got this overheating error while charging on the new IPhone 17 Pro…. Not good this is not a upgrade from the 16pro.

My iPhone 17 pro max, is too hot since yesterday!! I don’t know why, even when not in use!! The battery is draining fast also.

Any updates?

I got the iPhone 17 pro yesterday.. and from the moment I got it, it’s been “overheating” every charge. I say “overheating” because the phone itself is very hot - not warm, battery-melting hot. I have been constantly using the phone since I got it but I’m very surprised by this heat.

One thing throwing me off is the usual “this unit will pause charging until temp returns to normal” hasn’t popped up. That’s what usually happens with my old phone.

Wondering if I should bring it to an apple store for an exchange… or wait till something fries to utilize my AppleCare.

Ive had my new 17 Pro for a little over a week and I couldnt be more annoyed with the heat issue. Gets hot to the touch constantly and if wireless charging in my Tesla I always get the message “charging will resume when Iphone returns to normal temperature.” And it will be HOT to the touch. I didnt have this issue with my 15 pro. And for context this is while doing nothing on the phone or running any apps in the background. And its not because it has reached 80% charge as some have implied could be the case. It can be at any random charge % and stop due to temp.

It could be possible that even after a week there is some “indexing” going on in the background? Who knows.

And to all those that respond with “the vapor chamber isnt meant to address that”, thats just dumb. Why even advertise the heat distribution tech if it provides no noticeable positive difference.
