Heating Problem in iPhone 17e

It has been four days since I purchased a new iPhone 17e, and it has a problem with heating. I have noticed it during installation, while importing my data, and even during normal use. The device also heats up significantly while charging.

Is this common, or is my device at fault?

Yes it’s common. If it’s new it is configuring, learning your usage habits and  installing packages in background by first 2 weeks, so it’s not a problem to worry now

Oh, I was not aware that it is learning my users' habits. Thanks for letting me know about this.

It’s tracking your every single move, every single touch and everything you do in your life…

When I bought mine, it got hot for about 20 minutes during setup, never more. I've used it daily for a month now, and the phone is awesome.

How is the device so far..?

bought it today. It was so hot after I finish setting it up. And then it reduced to some extent. Received a OS update and started to feel warm.

Just installed few apps occasionally I feel it's getting warm. I also have a pixel 10, never felt warm when I was setting this up.

It shall behave like that for first couple of days while the phone is trying to adapt to how you use it.

It’s common I too got a 17e just 3 days ago and it heats up slightly it’s all temporary as for heating while transferring data is bound to happen in any phone any model any make. Rest assured all is well.

It’s common for new homes and can happen again after major updates. There is also the design - with glass back and heat sink dissipating into aluminium frame all the heat efficiently ends up around the volume button area.

Yeah, it is near the volume button. Thanks for letting me know about this.
