Apple Event Logo Hints at Two iPhone 17 Pro Features

Maybe one day I will be able to use my iPhone outside in the summer without the screen dimming to unreadable levels from overheating
I don’t have the new design but I wish we could ditch the camera bump entirely and get a chunkier phone that sits flush on a table
Remember when that was the norm?

I remember on the launch of iPhone 15 gens the display phones were unusual hot to the touch that I even said it to a worker and he made up crap like they were on charge over night that’s why, I wasn’t convinced.. then it was known to be an actually problem on the net.. I’m too good 😎.
Hell, I can't even use my 15+ in the car if it's a bit sunny out, even worse if I'm trying to use CarPlay.
Rest assured it will be very much marketed as a feature if it happens. I’m betting they will call it the “thermal engine”.
Cool. Maybe I'm weird, but I think it's hilarious that this article is effectively just cutting and pasting from the comments under yesterday's article about the event logo.
I guess it's a fast, cheap and easy way to hit the article quota for the day.

And Samsung had it first? But Apple is going to claim that they invented it with magic that only they can do. I’m tired of the pretentiousness. I wish they would genuinely innovate again.
I don’t game but mine gets quite warm whe using FaceTime for extended periods. Any cooling improvement is welcome.
If a vapor chamber cooling system gets your motor running, then I guess this will be an amazing iPhone event for you. I owned every iPhone from the 4 to the 12PM, and I never once thought any of them were having heat issues. Apple really is running out of new and inventive ideas. SMH.
As a consumer, I want to know how it’s cooled. The A18 Pro gets damn toasty when the GPU and CPU is pushed hard as did the A17 Pro, so if I know it has a much better cooling solution this alone would be a big selling feature to me, as it would mean I can run demanding tasks or games without the bloody thing thermal throttling.
I'm one of those brave souls, and I even go caseless on my foldables and flipables. I can't stand having a case on my phones.Very few and brave souls carry a phone without a case, the majority will be slapping a case on so does it matter what colour it is
To be fair, Apple has been counting new colors as features for several years now.
That is brave. I have kids, pets and I upgrade my phone every four years or so. Given my lifestyle and that time frame, I don't trust an iPhone to be durable enough without a case and screen protector.
That said, in recent years iPhones have gotten a lot more resistant to scrapes and falls.

As are new emojis in every iOS update. I'm not that bothered if they are classed as a feature or not, as it's irrelevant to me either way (I've no burning desire for more emojis). Marketing is marketing.
I remember my trusty 6s warning me about imminent thermal shutdown, when i had longer sessions on Skype that time. I had the phone standing in an angle to watch and talk on Skype and when i took the phone after the warning it was that hot, it was difficult to handle by bare hands.
Yeah my wife and I don't have kids, but if we did I am sure going caseless would not be an option!
Am I the only one who thinks this logo looks like molten (aka liquid) glass? That seems like a much more direct link than “phone might have a new orange color.”
If this is the main selling point of the new iPhones, we're in for quite a dull event.
Fair! I guess it’s just unfortunate that they were overheating in the first place.
