I’m really curious to know what it is that causes this. I can’t get mine to do it. Even with something like 3dmark, or heavy games at 120 FPS. It gets no warmer than any other iPhone I’ve had. Which is to say, it gets warm, yeah, but not to the point I can’t hold it.
It’s probably not the hardware. Too many people have reproduced this stuff on varying legacy hardware configurations.
That said, people should still be pissed at Apple for their growing trend of buggy software.
Software quality has gone downhill at Apple. Their QA used to be some of the best in the business, but too many major releases ship with something nasty these days.
I remember ios13 was so buggy on release. I was genuinely remorseful for upgrading to it, and it taught me to never upgrade a major version from Apple until months have passed.

Pesky Uber!!! I knew they’d be to blame somehow.

And people want to run Resident Evil on this?
It’s just a stupid bug with the new major OS update and a handful of popular apps that were not patched for the new OS.
The phones are fine. People need to calm down.
Too hot to handle,
Too cold to hold.
It’s called the 15 and it’s in control.
Too hot to handle? Blame Lana.
Too cold to hold, they’re called the ghost busters and they’re in control
