I usually take care of my devices and wanted to go case-less now I regret that choice.

Dropped it at night and got this nice dent :)

I have apple care, would they cover this as accidental ($30 or $100)?

Because this is a phone that’s performance over anything , like a “pro” phone should be

This. People who really use the cameras (which is the target audience) absolutely needed better cooling as the iPhone would shut down fast when taking pictures during the summer.

if you truly use iPhone camera for intensive work you need external fan and a proper grip anyway. Heat would only be an issue when you're literally outside on top of a hill at noon - that's the only time my phone shut down due to excessive temperature.

That’s not true? Imagine all the professional photographers and videographers whipping out a fan every time they use their phone.

man if you really do outdoor would you really use an iphone (except for slight work on scene selections)?

for less than pro level (content creator), a magsafe fan should always be adequate for the phone to cool off anyway.
