While Samsung’s clearly leading the display shipments for the iPhone 14 series with over 80% of the share, the growth of China’s BOE is also increasing as Apple wants to lessen its dependency on its traditional suppliers including Samsung and LG Display.
As expected, the Cupertino-based company is likely to unveil the iPhone 14 series on September 7, which could include four models namely the standard iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 14 Max, and iPhone 14 Pro Max. Among them, the Pro and Pro Max models might feature notch-less screens.
Apple’s newly released iPhone 15 Pro models evolved controversial over the heating problems. Various users complain that their device gets warm even without heavy usage. Well, Apple has finally decided to acknowledge overheating issues with the iPhone 15 Pro.
The iPhone maker issued a statement via Forbes, as to how it plans to address the problems. Apple has finally acknowledged that the iPhone 15 Pro series is having overheating problems. The company will release a new iOS 17 update for the devices soon.
Apple said the following: “We have identified a few conditions which can cause iPhone to run warmer than expected. The device may feel warmer during the first few days after setting up or restoring the device because of increased background activity”.
Apple’s statement notes that recent updates to some third-party apps on iOS 17, like Instagram, Asphalt 9, and Uber, overload the A17 Pro chip’s CPU, causing the iPhone to get warmer than normal. The optimization work is underway along with implementing necessary fixes to completely address the problem.
