Cleared US Customs Anchorage, AK this morning at 5:30AM.
To be fair, Apple isn’t the only smartphone manufacturer that has experienced phones that can run hot. And, “misbehaving” Apps can use significant amounts of energy, which usually translates to heat being generated and making its way to the outside case.
To be fair, a phone should be able to use the full processing power that it promises at STP.
116F is pretty toasty. Some set their hot water heaters around that level.
This one is false. Titanium is about 53% better than stainless and neither are stellar as metals go. Titanium has about 8-9% the thermal conductivity of aluminum. As your case example illustrates, anything you put outside the aluminum heat sink is going to reduce the effectiveness of the heat sink.
That doesn't address the issue that the phone is getting that hot which ultimately reduces its ability to sustain its highest performance capabilities.
My beef is about how hot the phone got while doing things rather than when fast charging. You can't deflect one by arguing the other is bad or worse. If it can only run at full clock speed for a few seconds, all that raw power must be sacrificed for long-term survival.
By the time you get your phone, Apple will have "addressed the issue" with an OS update. Since Apple doesn't document their benchmark regimen, there won't be any way to test how much performance is lost for the number of joules lost.
The only data I saw was 104°F as measured over the glass area just to the lower right of the cameras. I didn't see any measurements on the frame. I'll do some tests later after the 15 Pro Max arrives.
You sure do worry extensively about things that don't affect you.
Apps running in the background are typically going to be running on E-cores (assuming they're actually running and not sitting and waiting) and not consuming much power. If there aren't a lot of resources required, there's not a lot of heat generated no matter how many programs are idle in the background. Only the P-core programs generate significant heat and then only when they're firing on most of the CPU and GPU cores.
Not exactly "chill" for basic file transfers. I'd imagine that Airplay would be similar.
Correct me if I am wrong, my understanding is that it is ok to transfer the settings from the old phone to the new one before unpairing the Watch, I just shouldn’t pair it to the new phone before unpairing it from the old one, right?
