Community ManagerHey @DingoTango it is quite common for a device to get warm and battery to take a hit if playing a game that is demanding on your phone.
It may be worth checking the specs for the game and comparing them to your phone.

I am using iphone 12 pro with the problems I issued. Also use HTC U11 and worse.
Obviously Simcity is very demanding but could someone suggest which phone is suitable for Simcity without burn issue.
@DingoTango I understand the convenience of the iPhone, but I suggest if possible invest in an iPad or a tablet. Your gameplay experience will be enhanced significantly. If this option isn’t feasible at this moment I suggest contacting Apple and see if they can offer any additional insights. My understanding is this has been a recurring theme and they may be better able to assist. Good luck.
- @DingoTango Obviously the game itself not optimized for phone. I had the same problem for iPhone 12 Pro which I believe the spec is more enough to run this game. I playing other action game like shooting, mobile legend (China version) which won’t make this phone even warm. I like the graphics from the game but is better to come out a setting for user to choose the graphics quality they want in order to solve this kind of issue.
Same issue and I am on iPhone 12 Pro Max. Already contacted Apple and they say all good with the phone and asked me to contact EA. Every other game is just fine, only Simcity Buildit heats up the phone like crazy.
