Re: iPhone Plus, Definitely Heating It Up: Mark is Taking a Pass on iPhone 15 Series

Sieghard,  You are correct that the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus do not have titanium frames. Only the 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max have those.  Alan Lemly  Sent from my iPhone On Oct 12, 2023, at 11:34 PM, Sieghard Weitzel <siegh...@live.ca> wrote:  I don't think the regular iPhone 15 and 15 Plus have Titanium frames, but of course I could be wrong. Of course it's also beyond me why if  you have an iPhone 14 Pro Max you would buy a 15 Plus which has the exact same chip, it lacks the LiDAR sensor your 14 Pro Max has and as far as I can tell all you get is an action button to which you can map one single function and you have a USB-C port instead of a Lightning port. Of course if you decide you don't want it any more you can send it to me, it is starting to get cold up here in Northern British Columbia and this may make a nice hand warmer 🤣   -----Original Message----- From: M.

I have truly been putting it through it proverbial paces and I can tell you that the device heats up far faster and far warmer than does my beloved 14 Pro Max.   It's really quite interesting as I understand that the 15 Plus is just a 14 series inside that titanium case.  Is this true?   Regardless, with only a screen protector installed and using a cheap $10 case I purchased at the Apple store, using the device for any uninterrupted length of time when performing longer tasks such as performing system restores, lengthy GPS navigation, App updates (over 30 or so at a time) the phone really heats up.  I'm not saying it is heating to a dangerous level but I am saying that it is heating up so much and so fast that I have decided to not purchase a 15 Pro Max, this year.   Of course I am comparing the 15 Plus with my beloved 14 Pro Max with the same level of screen brightness.   Okay, just thought I would pass this along.   Keep in mind, this is just my experience:  Your milage may vary.   I hope you are all doing well.   Mark     -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.   If you have any questions or concerns about the running of this list, or if you feel that a member's post is inappropriate, please contact the owners or moderators directly rather than posting on the list itself.   Your V iPhone list moderator is Mark Taylor.  Mark can be reached at:  mk...@ucla.edu.  Your list owner is Cara Quinn - you can reach Cara at caraqu...@caraquinn.com   The archives for this list can be searched at: http://www.mail-archive.com/viphone@googlegroups.com/ --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "VIPhone" group.
