Hopefully not in that order.

Now that the new iPhone 15 range is out in the wild, controversies relating to Apple’s smartphone are starting to emerge.

It was only a matter of time.

There appear to be two controversies this time around, both of which are focused primarily on the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max models — the latter in particular.

Does the iPhone 15 Pro Max heat up? Will it snap in half? Is that Mars Rover grade 5 titanium less than it has — literally — cracked up to be?

Let’s find out.

Previous ‘gates’

We do love an iPhone ‘gate’, don’t we?

Arguably, the most famous was Antennagate, which emerged during the iPhone 4 release in 2010. This was when Apple moved the antenna to the sides of the device and users subsequently reported a loss of signal if it was gripped in a specific manner.

A public explanation that we were all simply holding it wrong followed from Steve Jobs and every iPhone 4 owner was offered a free bumper case to rid their new pride and joy of the problem.
