So I've had every iPhone since launch and have always used them at 100% brightness. However with the 7 Plus, at full brightness, my iPhone starts to get really hot and oddly, it starts at the home button and the bottom bezel area becomes really hot (the screen itself doesn't get hot which I'd assume it would if it was a screen brightness issue).
I've done a hard reset and also deleted finger prints and re-added. None of that worked.
I'm doing a physical back up now and about to restore to factory settings and set up the phone as new to see if the issue remains. If it does, I assumed it's a hardware issue and not software so I have a genius appointment set for Tuesday if that's the case.
I've read about past iPhone hot home button issues but the only info I could find is to do a hard reset.
If anyone has any other advice to try, I would appreciate it!
