Fortunately, the update, iOS 17.0.3, has brought solutions focused on these issues, significantly improving this aspect. But, <strong>as is often the case with every update, there are always rumors and theories<\/strong>. One of the ones that has emerged is whether iOS 17.0.3 slows down the performance of these devices to prevent them from heating up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Introducing iPhone 15 Pro | Apple\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xqyUdNxWazA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2023\/10\/04\/ios-17-0-3-iphone-15-pro-overheating\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">At 9to5mac<\/a>, they had the brilliant idea of checking it, and at Softonic, we were able to replicate the results. How? Very easily, <strong>by running a Geekbench test before and after the update<\/strong>. Here are the numbers we obtained on a 128 GB iPhone 15 Pro:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Single-core<\/strong> <strong>before the update<\/strong>: 2887<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Multi-core<\/strong> <strong>before the update<\/strong>: 7124<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Single-core after the update<\/strong>: 2901<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Multi-core after the update<\/strong>: 7130<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>As we can see, <strong>there is even a slight improvement in performance<\/strong>. It&#8217;s true that this could be within the standard error range of the Geekbench test, but it&#8217;s still interesting. Each of the numbers corresponds to the average of three separate tests conducted 15 minutes apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s worth mentioning, furthermore, that right after the update, the performance results are indeed lower. As Apple already commented on this matter, after an update, <strong>there are a lot of background processes that slow down and also heat up the phone<\/strong>. It&#8217;s a normal situation that, after a few hours and with the processes completed, ceases to have any effect.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Apple Support\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-m\/p\/952ecafe-c8f3-11e6-99be-00163ed833e7\/3724861761\/apple-support-logo\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Apple Support<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/apple-support.en.softonic.com\/iphone\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOWNLOAD<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/apple-support.en.softonic.com\/iphone\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With this data in hand, it&#8217;s safe to say that Apple has achieved what they <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/iphone-15-warming-apple-statement-solution\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">already confirmed they would do with this update<\/a>: fix the error without compromising the overall performance of the device in any way.
