I get asked about iPhones getting hot every day. I thought I would try to explain why and whats too much. Hope you enjoy it and thanks for watching as it is always appreciated.
Aaron when Apple starts using the vapor cooling system in the phones it should reduce heating when gaming ? Etc... From what I understand that’s why there is dimming
Recently my 12 Pro Max gets super hot the upper left corner, next to the cameras. When I’m just on Instagram or taking pictures. Never had that problem till now!
I’m the type of person who gets cold easily, so I always tend to use my phone under a blanket, especially when I’m in bed. Problem is, it causes my phone to heat up, often too much.
Brought 12 pro max last week Friday took it back Saturday. The overheating was too much. It overheated and wouldn't charge. Too much power for that little battery. Thinking about getting the iPad 2021 but they just messed that up also
I just got it just two days ago, Idid not use it that much. I am so surprised that Apple did not take care of the heat, I got a call right after charging it, and I could feel the heat radiating from the phone on my cheek. I fall in love with the phone, but the heat is too hot to handle. I decided to return it perhaps tomorrow. I am disappointed.
As a construction worker I use my 12 pro outside a lot and it gets quite hot to the point where the brightness turns down and I am not able to turn it back up until it cools down. This is very frustrating as I need to be able to use my phone outside while working. This has already happened a few times and with it being spring, temperature are only around 65-70 degrees. I am afraid to see what will happen when it gets to 90-100 degrees during the summer. Very disappointed that this is how a $1000 phone preforms
I'm a couple of years late but great video still! I am always amazed at how well IPhones and some other android phones dissipate heat. Especially iPhones because they all run hot. Considering they are only using passive cooling it's quite impressive. I guess with iPhones it's the combination of mostly metal and glass materials and very power hungry processors that make iPhones get so hot so often.
Same here!! I noticed the same thing. Been using 12 pro max and whenever I play mobas like ML or LOL, I get what you just said. And it’s frustrating not sure but I think thats how they were made :(
@@bry5432 yea this thing should’ve had a Vapor chamber like cooling solution in the first place. It’s very unfortunate that A14 in 12 series has a undervolted GPU as compared to A14 in iPad Air.The hardware is just too powerful for this thermally limited design.
Hello, so I do not have a choice but to buy a pocket wifi and put my sim card there.. Then commect via pocket wifi. Just to avoid the heating problem. I am not sure if heating only affects iphones bought in Asia, like the Philippines where I live.
@@zollotech Facing Serious issue on my Brand New iPhone 12 Pro max 256GB gold L/LA variant Phone getting hot after clicking 2 photos. the display suddenly Low In brightness even after Clicking only 2 Photos.
Gee thanks for this brother Aaron. I just upgraded my new 13 Pro Max to the latest ios 15.2 and was getting paranoid because of the sudden increase in temperature which wasn’t there when I had it on 15.1. But now after watching your video I gather that it could just be indexing my large photo and video library. For the record mine is a 512 GB device and I have already used up 400 GB of that storage. And following your advice I also took my silicone case off to make it easy for the phone to dissipate heat. You are a great blessing to the Apple community here dear brother Aaron. God bless.
A little surprised you didn’t mention that the screen brightness will lower considerably if the phone gets too hot. This happens too often on my iPhone 11. I doubt my iPhone 11 is faulty either. My iPhone 11 seems to get hotter than Samsung phones I’ve had in the past.
this was very informative, thank you! i got my iphone 11 about two weeks ago and the first day it got really hot and i was afraid there was something wrong with it, but this video explains it all. i really enjoy your content and you helped me deciding which iphone to get, i’m very happy with it. thanks!
@@francisailo i had the s9 and still gets pretty hot but it doesnt dim out, Only frame drops, and it doesnt even support ultra graphics. I’m thinking of buying a phone cooler in amazon.
👍👍My iPhone 13 was little warmer so I thought of finding the reason online and I saw the video and I found that after watching the video (like before only I removed the cover) and the phone has become cooler
In India the normal temperature is above 38 C and iPhone feels bit warm while charging with 20w fast charger. In that situation you don't feel good to hold phone until it's cool down.
@@donmodi4437 Yes mate. it feels hot a bit. So I turn off internet connectivity during this time and it helped me now. Also, ditched the thick phone case.
@@KarmaStrikes Genshin heats up on every phone with a flagship chip as it is maxing out the CPU/GPU. SD888 phones are the worse (Mi11 and S21U). Gaming computers that are 100x bigger with similar performance heat up so it is a bit optimistic to expect a small 6-7 inch phone to not heat up! Even gaming phones with active cooling and fans still get hot!
Something that annoyed me with my 12 Pro Max was wireless charging. I bought it around July 2020 and was charging my X just fine. After I upgraded to the Max, I noticed that after a few minutes, the phone would get really warm and would stop charging. I don’t know if people has been having the same issue, if it is just the wireless charger I’m using, or it’s because of the metal for the magsafe
Same thing happened to me my xs max charged on my wireless charger no problem. Would get warm but never hot. I traded the xs max for the iPhone 13 pro max and when I placed it on the same wireless charger I was using before and I noticed the I phone and the wireless charging station I’ve used for a few years, was getting very hot after only 10-15 minutes. I took the phone off as soon as I noticed this. I guess I need to use my digital thermometer to test the actual temperature. But I’m sure the phone getting that hot while charging for extended periods of time is not safe
@@Brennen_Nisporic yeaa, I stopped wireless charging because of this. It’s also annoying in the Texas heat, which is mostly over 105 degrees. I can’t use my phone for gps because it just overheats on the dashboard
My iPhone 12 Pro Max running the latest beta almost shutdown after a 30 min zoom call! It got so hot the screen dimmed, I took it out of the apple silicone case and it took almost 10 min for the screen to brighten back up. If I had stayed on that zoom call another 10 min my phone would have shut off. It was so hot I had to lay it down because it was uncomfortable to hold. Apple has got to fix this. Reporting to apple as well.
If your having battery drain it’s the software problem not the battery Close your apps that’s why your phone heats up and battery drain faster on iPhone
Recently my 12 Pro Max gets super hot the upper left corner, next to the cameras. When I’m just on Instagram or taking pictures. Never had that problem till now!
I swear my new I phone 13 max just burned the palm of my hand while I was playing a game. Not visibly but I can feel it. I’ve never had this problem with iPhone before. $1300 I spent on this yesterday.
My 11 Pro Max gets super hot when I use the maps app. This is something I never experienced that on my ex-Android phones and I would like to know why and hope Apple can fix that. 🙄
Never got my 11 pro max to heat up abnormally even while gaming. Also it’s not just maps or other small things that heats it up, there are many things iOS does on the background. Maybe there is an important process running in the background so that’s why it may heat up. Idk what it does but I got my iPhone 6 Plus to heat up a lot with just watching RUclips at times, but sometimes it barely warm while watching RUclips. Androids don’t actually do a lot of background processing like iOS does so it won’t Heat up by chance like iPhone does
@@oladiedoo50 what makes you think Android phones don’t do a lot of background tasks...they actually do a lot more and have true multitasking unlike iOS. Your statement was totally wrong lol

Yes, all smart phones will get hot when they are having load put on them , it just depends on the usage case , unfortunately heat is accumulative in smart phones because they are sealed units with no way to dissipate accumulated heat quickly other than by heat sinking through the chassis and case and via throttling , except for the odd specialist gaming phone with fans and vents. Users have to have a bit of common sense , there is no way gaming or using the devices chipset under very heavy load for extended periods on a sealed device will not get hot , and warm ambient temp will make it worse ..
Well, I just noticed that if you’re using DATA most of the time most Specially when playing online games my phone is heated up asf! But when I’m using WIFI my phone is cooling down! Hope it helps! Been using wifi since I got my phone. Then suddenly trued to use DATA then boom! My phone started heating up!
Really disappointed with my iPhone 12 Pro Max….freezing and going into a boot loop is becoming a regular issue. Things that have caused this to happen are:- taking a dozen pictures in quick succession, heat due to wireless charging and at other times, the phone suddenly gets really hot for no reason, freezes and goes into the boot loop.
I only had my iPhone 11 a month and it was getting hot from day one. I’m very disappointed. I never had my Samsung devices cook my fingers. I will be switching back to android asap.
My iPhone 12 Pro gets really hot within 5-10 minutes when I'm playing solitaire on it, which is something that ran fine on my iPhone 12 with no issues. For a company as big as Apple, they didn't figure to put a cooling system in the new iPhone if they were going to use more powerful hardware? There's really zero reason for a phone to be baking in your hand.
I have an iPhone 12 Mini on ios 14.2.2 and I used to charge my phone every night with a magsafe charger. I realized that my battery was draining much quicker than normal. Its almost as the magsafe charger was sucking juice out of the battery. So I went back to charging with a USB-C to Lightning cable on a 20w brick and my god the difference throughout the day with same usage was unreal. My battery wasn’t draining fast at all and all this time I thought it was a software issue. Has anyone else experienced this?
Same overheating problem,and battery getting drained fast ,even with minimal use on my new IPhone 12.Also tested RF radiation level with Cornet ed88t plus on the right side near phone. Got 1827 mW/m2 at the peak.Almost x20 than they stated and allowed by fcc.Tested also IPhone 11,better results but at the peak almost same.Tested with 4g band (5G,WiFi,and Bluetooth in off mode).No one from other brands phone that I tested with Cornet has not so high rf emission with same SIM and same mode. Apple should produce microwave ovens but not cellphones….
My 11 gets hot when checking mail😅 I don’t have social media and only use my phone for phone calls, texting, WhatsApp, Spotify and email. Sure sometimes surf on safari but nothing special. I don’t think this is NORMAL. It’s a common issue that pretty much all iPhones had. It gets hot after 1-2 minutes of use!??! NOT NORMAL!! They’re fcking us over. Also when it gets hot, the screen starts clicking when pressing lightly, also the back glass starts clicking. As if the screen comes off the frame because of the heat. I have a backup Samsung s21 and that phone never gets hot even after 2-3 hours of use.
Sooo I have NEVER had a problem with my phone getting hot or ‘overheating’. I have had every iPhone since the 3GS and this 12 mini has already had 3 overheating issues. I do not understand it’s like this thing sucks in the heat from outside
Apple is really getting into lawsuits territory, if more phones start overheating they might get sued big time, plus one if people want to bring up the charger not included, Apple still wastes a ton of packaging due to me receiving a Apple Pencil with a giant ass bag, so much “for the environment”
I just got a brand new iPhone XR last week and I was surprised when it’s really warm when I’m charging it using a 20W adapter; but it doesn’t happen when I’m using a 12W adapter
Im using 12 watt ipad charger, n my iphone 12 pro is never get hot even using it while im charging it, works well, not causing too much hot at all, and battery health still 100% been using it 4 months
Im new to Ios. Bought iphone 13 three days ago and still the same problem. Is it really normal on ios to get warm/hot up to 104farenheit on updating a game? Atleast 100 on watching youtube? Or should I replace mine to new item?
I had my 12 pro max one time over heated and it happens when i was restoring iCloud backup . Only this time . And thx Aaron about the celsius unit. I am from Brazil .
My iPad sometimes will get a little warm when reading the news on flipboard. I noticed some heating when it was drawing down the battery.. Some of the Macbook pros were running close to 100C which is pretty hot to the touch and can burn you
Unfortunately Aaron no matter how many times you explain this a lot of your subscribers will never compute the fact electronic devices get warm I mean I recently saw a comment on Amazon uk on a review of a toaster complaining it was getting warm when they was doing there toast I immediately though is this one of Aaron’s followers absolutely love your videos keep up the fantastic work 😊
He really shouldn’t make ignorant comments. People are here because their phones are getting ridiculously hot during regular use. I just upgraded from my 11 to the 12 and just setting it up it immediately got super hot and it’s not cooling down.
Mine gets really hot. I do use my phone while charging. Wireless charging isn’t as efficient as wired charging. The battery can’t absorb and store 100% of the energy the left over energy gets transferred to heat.
Lately my phone keeps dimming almost immediately when I play a game that i usually play, very frustrating and yes my phone 13 pro max seems to be getting warmer.
Regulating itself! That’s the problem, have you noticed how often it does dim the screen without noticing when it’s regular summer day, and how bad is the screen brightness due to their aggressive regulations?
My iPhone 12 mini overheated several times last week. I live in Arizona and it’s been over 100 F until 8 or 9 pm. I don’t remember my iPhone 8 overheating this much.
I have an iPhone XS Max and it was on my bed and all of a sudden i feel it and it’s like 100 degrees. So I unlocked it and it was running at 10 FPS so I restarted it and now it’s running fine.
OMG, I was searching all over the internet for this issue. My iphone 11 Pro Max getting so warm after installed ios 14.4. Even with light use for 20 minutes, the phone get very warm. It gets worse if no wifi and I have to use cellphone data to browse or maps. And charging the phone is hot too. So weird! I hope it wont blow up on me😳 Apple wants us to buy a portable fridge to use with the iiPhones. Apple needs fix this issue.
After a brand new update, especially if it’s an important one that fixed and changes things-the iPhone has to do indexing in the background for the next few days so it will feel like that at first. Once it’s done it should be back to normal
@@Johnnygga I updated my phone to ios 14.4 more than a month ago. Reset all settings, hard reset, you name it, I’ve tried them all. Never have this issue with iPhone 8 Plus. Now Im too affraid to update to ios 14.4.2. It gonna blow up😩
my shit ass iphone 12 pro will get hot AF even when im just browsing on safari with only 1 tab open no back ground no GPS turn off lots of setting and it still hot as fk in 10-15min like hand hurting temperture fk apple galaxy it is cant wait for S22
Slightly off topic question, Aaron. What is the normal rate of wear for an iPhone battery after one year? I’ve had my iPhone 11 since April 2020 and health is already down to 89 percent.
That is excessive wear though in my opinion. Do you charge it every day? How do you charge? Overnight? My XS Max is at 92% but it goes 3 days between charges. I only charge up to 80%, never higher than that.
@@mac3490 frankly I do not care that much - it’s a lottery either way when it comes to micromanaging your battery, it can always be replaced after 2 years for reasonable cost so why bother
With recent updates I noticed my iPhone is getting warmer than usual.

You’re probably right, not much to worry about. However; my iPhone 12 Pro is quite noticeably hotter than my previous iPhone 11 Pro Max when charging.
11 Pro Max is bigger than 12 pro, which results in the 11 having more thermal capacity to spread heat
The problem isn’t heating. The problem is throttling. I’m seeing frame drops in games and unusual screen dimming

My iPhone 12 Pro gets really hot within 5-10 minutes when I'm playing solitaire on it, which is something that ran fine on my iPhone 12 with no issues. For a company as big as Apple, they didn't figure to put a cooling system in the new iPhone if they were going to use more powerful hardware? There's really zero reason for a phone to be baking in your hand.
My iphone se becoming hot when i watch offline youtube video
Why?
This is what I needed to hear.
I have an iPhone 12 Mini on ios 14.2.2 and I used to charge my phone every night with a magsafe charger. I realized that my battery was draining much quicker than normal. Its almost as the magsafe charger was sucking juice out of the battery. So I went back to charging with a USB-C to Lightning cable on a 20w brick and my god the difference throughout the day with same usage was unreal. My battery wasn’t draining fast at all and all this time I thought it was a software issue. Has anyone else experienced this?
Nice video Aaron, keep up the good work!👍
thanks aaron
Great video and well explained
My iPhone 12 pro max only gets warm while charging. And I can feel it's not normal warming.🥺
Same overheating problem,and battery getting drained fast ,even with minimal use on my new IPhone 12.Also tested RF radiation level with Cornet ed88t plus on the right side near phone. Got 1827 mW/m2 at the peak.Almost x20 than they stated and allowed by fcc.Tested also IPhone 11,better results but at the peak almost same.Tested with 4g band (5G,WiFi,and Bluetooth in off mode).No one from other brands phone that I tested with Cornet has not so high rf emission with same SIM and same mode. Apple should produce microwave ovens but not cellphones….
My iPhone 12 is new and it’s warm
My iPhone 12 Pro getting warmer after ios 15.0.2 updates. Is it normal? I just bought this phone this month.
Aaron can you do a video on how to use your Apple Watch to connect to another person‘s iPhone for exam
My 11 gets hot when checking mail😅 I don’t have social media and only use my phone for phone calls, texting, WhatsApp, Spotify and email. Sure sometimes surf on safari but nothing special. I don’t think this is NORMAL. It’s a common issue that pretty much all iPhones had. It gets hot after 1-2 minutes of use!??! NOT NORMAL!! They’re fcking us over. Also when it gets hot, the screen starts clicking when pressing lightly, also the back glass starts clicking. As if the screen comes off the frame because of the heat. I have a backup Samsung s21 and that phone never gets hot even after 2-3 hours of use.
So changing the battery doesn’t matter ? It’s still gonna get hot if do… I still have the iPhone SE first Gen. Great Video btw! Learned a lot!
Sooo I have NEVER had a problem with my phone getting hot or ‘overheating’.
I have had every iPhone since the 3GS and this 12 mini has already had 3 overheating issues. I do not understand it’s like this thing sucks in the heat from outside
My phone keeps getting really hot and it did not happen before so…
Apple is really getting into lawsuits territory, if more phones start overheating they might get sued big time, plus one if people want to bring up the charger not included, Apple still wastes a ton of packaging due to me receiving a Apple Pencil with a giant ass bag, so much “for the environment”
I just got a brand new iPhone XR last week and I was surprised when it’s really warm when I’m charging it using a 20W adapter; but it doesn’t happen when I’m using a 12W adapter
but are you still using the 20w adapter until now?
Very good and comprehensive video.
My 12 Pro Max gets pretty warm if I butt dial the camera and leave it open. Never to the point of being a problem.
Im using 12 watt ipad charger, n my iphone 12 pro is never get hot even using it while im charging it, works well, not causing too much hot at all, and battery health still 100% been using it 4 months
This problem is just sad though.
Im new to Ios. Bought iphone 13 three days ago and still the same problem. Is it really normal on ios to get warm/hot up to 104farenheit on updating a game? Atleast 100 on watching youtube? Or should I replace mine to new item?
I had my 12 pro max one time over heated and it happens when i was restoring iCloud backup . Only this time . And thx Aaron about the celsius unit. I am from Brazil .
Yep happens with my 12 Pro , also getting lots of screen flicker
My iPad sometimes will get a little warm when reading the news on flipboard. I noticed some heating when it was drawing down the battery.. Some of the Macbook pros were running close to 100C which is pretty hot to the touch and can burn you
Since I have the new iPhone and I never have any heating problems a lot, but if I do I know what to do to quickly avoid it, thanks 👍
Unfortunately Aaron no matter how many times you explain this a lot of your subscribers will never compute the fact electronic devices get warm I mean I recently saw a comment on Amazon uk on a review of a toaster complaining it was getting warm when they was doing there toast I immediately though is this one of Aaron’s followers absolutely love your videos keep up the fantastic work 😊
He really shouldn’t make ignorant comments. People are here because their phones are getting ridiculously hot during regular use. I just upgraded from my 11 to the 12 and just setting it up it immediately got super hot and it’s not cooling down.
I really needed this video so badly! Great video!
Thank you Zollo tech for explaining this to me because I would normally get worried when my iPhone 11 gets hot.😊 I love your videos.💙
Damn ur fine👸🏾
Mine gets really hot. I do use my phone while charging. Wireless charging isn’t as efficient as wired charging. The battery can’t absorb and store 100% of the energy the left over energy gets transferred to heat.
Lately my phone keeps dimming almost immediately when I play a game that i usually play, very frustrating and yes my phone 13 pro max seems to be getting warmer.
I have a iphone 11 and its getting hot even when doing normal things like going on safari, youtube, reddit can somone help?
Regulating itself! That’s the problem, have you noticed how often it does dim the screen without noticing when it’s regular summer day, and how bad is the screen brightness due to their aggressive regulations?
yes it is annoying! never had this issue in iPhone XS or 11.... there is nothing annoying when you're out in the open and it dims the screen!
iPhone going out of time apple doesn’t care and doing every year nothing to this issue since 6s overheating
My phone gets so hot that it burns my thumb
Facetime is normal to get the CPU hot like very hot & slo-mo videos too...?
I think the "new iphone" theory is correct. After using it for a few days now the heating problem doesnt exist anymore
me: plays roblox
not 1 minute later
phone: *allow me to introduce myself*
My iPhone 12 mini overheated several times last week. I live in Arizona and it’s been over 100 F until 8 or 9 pm. I don’t remember my iPhone 8 overheating this much.
I have an iPhone XS Max and it was on my bed and all of a sudden i feel it and it’s like 100 degrees. So I unlocked it and it was running at 10 FPS so I restarted it and now it’s running fine.
I have a huawei mate 10 pro and never heat up, not once..!!
Just bought iphone 11 todays back, feels like it's over heating, shall I replace it or wts ur suggestion
OMG, I was searching all over the internet for this issue. My iphone 11 Pro Max getting so warm after installed ios 14.4. Even with light use for 20 minutes, the phone get very warm. It gets worse if no wifi and I have to use cellphone data to browse or maps. And charging the phone is hot too. So weird! I hope it wont blow up on me😳 Apple wants us to buy a portable fridge to use with the iiPhones. Apple needs fix this issue.
After a brand new update, especially if it’s an important one that fixed and changes things-the iPhone has to do indexing in the background for the next few days so it will feel like that at first. Once it’s done it should be back to normal
@@Johnnygga I updated my phone to ios 14.4 more than a month ago. Reset all settings, hard reset, you name it, I’ve tried them all. Never have this issue with iPhone 8 Plus. Now Im too affraid to update to ios 14.4.2. It gonna blow up😩
my shit ass iphone 12 pro will get hot AF even when im just browsing on safari with only 1 tab open no back ground no GPS turn off lots of setting and it still hot as fk in 10-15min like hand hurting temperture
fk apple galaxy it is cant wait for S22
Overheating while charging and also charge drain fastly..all these happened after software update
Slightly off topic question, Aaron. What is the normal rate of wear for an iPhone battery after one year? I’ve had my iPhone 11 since April 2020 and health is already down to 89 percent.
Hi Apple says 80% battery Heath after 2 years is fine
That is excessive wear though in my opinion. Do you charge it every day? How do you charge? Overnight? My XS Max is at 92% but it goes 3 days between charges. I only charge up to 80%, never higher than that.
@@mac3490 frankly I do not care that much - it’s a lottery either way when it comes to micromanaging your battery, it can always be replaced after 2 years for reasonable cost so why bother
