Apple’s latest iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro series had generated a significant amount of excitement among consumers, but some early adopters have expressed disappointment by sharing their experiences of overheating issues on social media platforms. The issue was first reported by users in Apple’s discussion groups, Reddit, and other online forums, with many users claiming that their devices were heating up even when not in use, leading to battery drainage and poor overall performance.
When questioned about the issue, Apple responded by claiming that the problem was caused by initial startup issues and a bug, and that the device may feel warmer during the first few days after setting up or restoring the device due to increased background activity. However, despite multiple updates to iOS 17, some iPhone 15 users continued to report overheating problems, causing concerns among consumers about the quality and reliability of Apple’s latest devices.
In a surprising move, Apple indirectly confirmed the issue by acknowledging that iPhone 15 Pro models are expected to run warmer than previous iPhones, suggesting that the company is aware of the problem and is working on resolving it, potentially through major design changes in the upcoming iPhone 16 series.

Rumors have also surfaced that Apple is exploring the use of graphene to mitigate lingering thermal issues. Graphene is an excellent conductor of heat and electricity, making it an ideal material for addressing heat-related problems. If true, this could mean that the company is taking a proactive approach to addressing the issue.
Unfortunately, it appears that Apple cannot fully resolve the issue using software on the current models, which means that users who are experiencing overheating problems with their iPhone 15 will have to wait for upcoming updates or rely on Apple’s hardware support. As every new Apple phone comes with a year of free hardware support, users can take advantage of this and contact Apple for assistance, although it’s unclear whether the company’s support will be able to fully resolve the issue.
While Apple’s initial response addressed some of the concerns, it appears that the iPhone 15 Pro Max’s overheating issue remains unresolved for many users, causing disappointment and frustration among consumers. While rumors suggest that major design changes are coming to the iPhone 16 series, it’s unclear whether these changes will fully address the issue. For now, users who are experiencing overheating problems will have to wait for further updates or rely on Apple’s hardware support.
