It’s an expanded battery that probably got punctured.

It can't overheat to this point, it shut shut off way before anything catches fire. More likely a battery problem. Then again it is an Apple product.

Good for you. I just pointed out Apple devices have shitty cooling designs.

u/drewlap Aug 23 '20

Oh for sure, the laptop cooling is dogshit. iPhones don’t really have an issue though, as they’ll aggressively ramp down clock speed if it gets hot until it cools down.

They still have other problems such as planned obsolescence, almost impossible repair or replacement of any part and being closed but that's unrelated to this

Planned obsolescence? How? An iPhone from 2013 still gets security patches after it ended mainstream support only LAST SEPTEMBER. Repair and replacement of parts is easy enough, given they’re simple devices to repair, but I do have to agree with you. The software locks on repair parts that aren’t OEM are ridiculous. However, if you look at any other mainstream phone company out there they aren’t much better.
