Shortly after the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max were launched last September, some customers began experiencing an overheating issue with the devices. Apple eventually mitigated the problem with an iOS 17 update, but it could go a step further with the iPhone 16 models launching later this year.


Information A source was quoted today as saying that the iPhone 16 models will be equipped with a “larger graphite sheet” inside the chassis of the devices, to address potential overheating. This corroborates a rumor from last November that claimed the iPhone 16 models would feature an improved thermal management system.

Apple is expected to launch the iPhone 16 series in September, so the devices should be just a few months away from launch. With this rumored change, the post-launch overheating issue should be a thing of the past.
