Apple To Use Graphene Thermal System On Iphone 16 Series To Overcome Overheating Issues


While Apple has blamed poorly optimized software for causing the overheating and issued a software fix, a mere software update can do only a little without a proper cooling solution. Thus, this new rumored cooling system may actually come in handy.

Metal Shell over the Battery Also Expected

Earlier, it was rumored that Apple is exploring how they can add liquid vapor cooling to their future iPhones. A new rumor from the X user (formerly Twitter) Kosutami suggests that the company is now actively working on the graphene thermal system for the iPhone 16 series to overcome overheating issues and will also incorporate a metal shell surrounding the battery for the same. Apple is actively working on graphene thermal system of iPhone 16 Series to solve the heating problem existing before. And the battery of Pro series would change to metal shell, for the same reason.— Kosutami (@KosutamiSan) November 16, 2023
It is not uncommon for smartphone brands to use graphene films to dissipate heat, with Google also joining the bandwagon with its latest Pixel 8 and 8 Pro models. But, it only did a little for the overheating therefore, the metal shell surrounding the battery on iPhone 16 may actually be true. While we will have to wait another year to see whether Apple uses this graphene thermal system on the iPhone 16 series, considering how the iPhone 15 Pro series is getting continuously criticized for overheating, Apple will certainly look for ways to overcome this issue.
