Using my device for a few days and doing some gaming on it, I have noticed that I have never once encountered an issue where my device ran hot enough that it needed to auto dim the screen brightness.

Every time I would game on my XS max, It would get too hot and then reduce the brightness three times to where I couldn’t even see anything! The only time it would not get hot is if I had AC blowing directly on it.

Never an issue once with the 11 Pro Max.
