So I have an iPhone 12 mini. I did the iOS update to 16.5.1. Even when I was on iOS 16 the phones battery was degrading and phone was over heating. I just changed the battery on June 30th. Still phone is overheating. Does anyone know of any solutions. Phone battery barely lasts 4 hours , with low battery setting turned on
iPhone 12 mini, iOS 16
What I did is given below
I continued to have the same issue with the heating.
I repeated the above steps but this time I did not restore from the iCloud Backup. I set it up as a new iPhone.
Waited for 3 days. There is no heating issue, now.
Conclusion.:
Action Plan:
Now the heating issue isn't there anymore. I am adding apps one by one and keeping tab on the heating issue.
My experience says this is purely caused by some third-party app that you may have installed.
I am not aware of the ambient temperature in which you are using the iPhone. However --> Keeping iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch within acceptable ...
Store the device where the temperature is between -20º and 45º C (-4º to 113º F). Don’t leave the device in your car, because temperatures in parked cars can exceed this range.
Use iOS devices where the ambient temperature is between 0º and 35º C (32º to 95º F). Low- or high-temperature conditions might cause the device to change its behavior to regulate its temperature. Using an iOS device in very cold conditions outside of its operating range might temporarily shorten battery life and could cause the device to turn off. Battery life will return to normal when you bring the device back to higher ambient temperatures. Using an iOS device in very hot conditions can permanently shorten battery life.

That’s awesome! I will give it a try tonight. Thanks for the step by step
Thanks again. Did a backup. Did a reset. Whole process took about 10-15 minutes.
phone seems to be working much better. No overheating. It’s charging correctly as well.
Phone over heating
