The iPhone 15 is a hot product, and not always in a good way: early models had a tendency to overheat, and while that's been fixed in iOS updates it seems that Apple's dismissal of any design issues – Apple said that the iPhone 15's titanium frame was better at heat dissipation than older stainless steel designs – may not mean that thermal issues aren't still a concern. A new report says that Apple is considering a fairly significant redesign to address thermal issues.
The report comes from tipster Kosutami, who previously revealed the existence of a HomePod with a built-in screen before any prototypes had leaked. This time the news is that Apple is "actively working on a graphene thermal system of iPhone 16 Series to solve the heating problem". And as part of that redesign the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max will have their batteries encased in metal shells for better thermal isolation.
