The iPhone 7 or 7 Plus gets warm when you charge it because its inside is working hard to get power in and out at the same time.
Imagine your phone is like a toy car that's moving while someone is filling up its fuel tank. That’s a lot of work for the toy car, so it gets hot! The battery is like the fuel tank, and the charger is like the person filling it up. When you use your phone at the same time, it’s like driving the toy car while someone fills up the tank, that's extra work, and it makes things hotter.
Now imagine you're using your phone a lot while charging it, like playing games or watching videos, this is like making the toy car go faster while filling it up. That makes it even warmer!
Sometimes, if your phone gets too hot, it might shut down, like when the toy car stops working because it’s too busy and too hot.
But once you stop using it while charging, the work slows down, and your phone cools off, just like the toy car would slow down and cool off after a while.
Examples
- You try charging it on a different cable and it starts working again.
