However, Ming-Chi Kuo, analyst at TF Securities, says that these smartphones The reason for overheating is the changes made in their internal design. In a post on Medium, Kuo said that his market survey showed that the alleged overheating problem in the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max is not related to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC)’s advanced 3 nm node. TSMC’s 3 nm A17 Pro chip has been used in both these smartphones. Apple has given A16 Bionic chip in other models of iPhone 15 series.
Kuo claims that the reason for overheating in these smartphones could be the changes made by Apple in their thermal design. The company has used titanium frame in both these smartphones. There are reports that many users of iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max are facing problems due to excessive heating. Due to this the temperature is increasing up to 46 degrees Celsius. A South Korean YouTube channel has posted a video showing the rising temperature in these smartphones using thermal imaging cameras.
