Yesterday was my first real ‘heavy use’ day for the 15PM. I was on multiple Teams calls while switching over to Outlook to compose emails and multitask on some other things, all on cellular data. The phone was barely even warm and switching apps during a call was smooth and quick. Doing the 80% charging setting and before bed it was only down to around 45% - absolutely incredible.

I adored my XR, but if I were doing the same it would have been stuttering and hiccuping switching between apps, gotten pretty hot, and forced me to plug in by noon.

Really loving this phone :swoon:

Were the old leather cases even real leather? If they were it was dumpster scraps quality stuff. I thought the only real leather thing Apple offered were those $700 Hermes bands.

It was "real" in so far as it was definitely the tanned hide of something. That it was the cheapest, thinnest trash leather available is immaterial to that answer.

New iOS will solve the heat problem but won’t hurt performance, Apple says. I did think it was just a bug as they said. It would heat up for no apparent reason rather than just during intense things.

I've noticed even my 14 Pro getting super hot randomly, so I suspect it is actually an iOS bug

This isn’t the thread I was expecting to see who does and doesn’t know what poppers are.

Not that I’ve, uh, done them or anything. Stop looking at me that way.

I know a guy who worked on the cases team and asked him this actual question a couple years back. he said they are definitely leather, but the complications are numerous.

cases need to be thin and leather is only part of the construction. Iirc they used some formulation of alcantara on the other side. You’re never going to get high quality leather feel into a case that thin. At best you’re trying to convey like… the outer grain quality of decent leather. He swore that the leather quality, such that it can be appreciated on a phone case, was good.

There’s a reason why a band (a way more reasonable application of leather, period) is the product with decent feel.

Has anyone here actually had issues with a 15 Pro/Max overheating consistently, or has
the whole debacle been born from Reddit, just like the idiots who didn’t put power cables into a GPU properly and melted them?

15 Pro checking in, coming from 13 Pro. This phone has higher max temps (App Store updates are guaranteed to cause a spike in temperature), but median usage the phone is cool/neutral.

My iPhone 12 mini camera can’t focus in 1x mode. Works fine in 0.5x mode. I was taking pictures outside, twenty minutes later and it can’t focus anymore. Didn’t drop it or anything. No lens protectors on. Tried restarting, updating to iOS 17. Anyone else experience something like this?

Finally got more AmFilm glass protectors for my 15 pro but this time I did it in the bathroom after running a hot shower. Zero issues this time, perfect application and looks good.

I still have AC+ but this is gonna be nice to have. I never break a phone but I always get those little scratches that aren't enough to justify getting it fixed, now I can just replace the protector once a year or so.

Good poo poo.
