Thats nothing.? Sneakily using fahrrneit to make it sound like a big deal. I hate Apple as much as the next guy but this is exploitative journalism
What? 116 degrees is pretty dang hot.
Edit: It's literally at the threshold of a first degree burn.
Its insides getting that hot doesn't matter hell it is more than normal for a phone under heavy load(gaming and stuff)
If you read the article its the entire phone that gets hot, not just the "insides". While a slight increase in temp under heavy load is normal, becoming too hot to even pick up is not.
I mean come on, this is a design flaw without question, you can easily get burned by a 115°F metal case.
I see yea I just read the headline on here hence my uninformed take
Apple themselves say that a phone at consistently higher than 35C will suffer from battery capacity damage
There are at least two countries in the world that use Fahrenheit in a regular basis. US is one of them.
I'll rather they use Celsius, but still it's weird to think this is only to make "exploitative journalism".
