Anecdotal evidence, while interesting, is not really pertinent. For example, I've had over a dozen iPhone models, never had a problem with heat. I've had a half dozen MBPs, use two at the moment, and the battery has never swelled, ever.
And the trash can is tiny, making it the second best example we have other than the 5K iMac, both of which work fine and handle thermals fine.
And BTW, every phone slows under extended load, that's standard thermal management for fan-less battery powered devices.
- protomyth 9y agoI take it you are just going to skip all the news articles on the iPhone 6? The trash can doesn’t have an integrated display and has a rather large hole to vent, it’s a different beast from the iMac line. Using it as an example is as valid as using the G4. This is the biggest CPU in an Apple thin form factor machine, and I think it is pretty wise to be nervous.
