It’s not just wireless charging causing excessive heat on this gen.

I had to stop using wireless charging in my car because the phone overheated. Then it started throwing overheating errors while charging plugged in.

Maybe these batteries are taking a thermal beating.

Checking in with an iPhone 14 Pro at 96% since release, which doesn’t sound bad but is markedly worse than the last several iPhones I’ve had.

Exactly like mine. 96% since release. I’m using AOD and 99% wireless charging.

It’s ok, never had any issues with my battery life that I ran out of energy.

We probably have to accept, that these battery’s are performing at their very limit and have no thermal system to keep them in a specific temperature range.

My iPhone X was about the same. In installed a new battery when it was 2.5 years old and I used it for 5 years. I will probably do the same with my 14 Pro.

I get overheating warnings even when charging via Lightning on the 14 Pro…
