    They just figured oh well it works well in Cupertino. They omitted the fact that Cupertino doesn’t get super hot, ever.

        I mean if they didn’t test it in Cali I wouldn’t know where at all…

          California is a big state with lots of different climates. The bay area doesn’t typically get that hot.

      I haven’t noticed a heating issue and I live in a very hot climate. So, it’s not universal.

        My 15 pro max is cold all the time, I haven’t played any 3d games yet though. It was cold during restore process and it’s cold when charging

      People have used it in very hot areas and it has been fine, with no overheating issues.

      People have used it in very temperate areas and it has turned into a small furnace.

      The controlling variable is almost certainly not ambient temperature.
