      Anonymous, 08 Mar 2025Interesting to know. Was wondering about that, I think ther... moreYeah, M1 had great thermals, no throttling. M2 and M3, got to 108°C and 115°C in the Macbook Air, with strong workloads or just a game of Shadows of the Tomb Raider. It may not be an everyday situation, but even allowing it to reach such temps is crazy. Apple just decided to not throttle for as long as possible/ throttle as little as possible in exchange for temps being high. I don't like that approach, they are edging the max temps and ultimately, hurt longetivity by doing that.

        This is Apple's way of spitting in your face and telling you it's raining. Anyone who buys this phone really truly deserves it

          I really hope gsmarena would redo the battery test, or at least go into a bit more in depth about the battery life discrepancy. This review showed a significantly worse battery life than even the regular iPhone 16 with smaller battery. Meanwhile, other reviewers are showing better battery life than the 16. Which is which?

              Y’all got so much wrong in this lol. First of all, I’m using a 14 Plus rn and the back is not matte. It’s glossy. Second of all, the internals match that of the iPhone 14. Not the 13.

                Suggestion: remove the rear camera to make even clearer look and give us a $4.99 discount for the final price of $595.00.

                                  For gaming, maybe it is different because there the choice of a developer plays a bigger part.
