Inexplicable restarts iPhone 16 Pro: the problem in detail
The iPhone 16 Pro (1199.00 euros), which combines Apple’s latest technology with powerful processors and an improved camera, has caused quite a stir since its launch. However, the device is now also being criticized for unexpected reboots. Numerous users have reported that their iPhone 16 Pro suddenly restarts during use, but also in standby mode. This is one of the findings of a report by macrumors.
The system crashes probably occur sporadically. A specific trigger or a specific app does not appear to be responsible for the problem. Even simple tasks such as surfing the internet or opening apps can be abruptly interrupted by an unexpected restart. This has led to frustration for many users and concerns about the reliability of the expensive device.
Possible causes and Apple’s response
There is currently no clear explanation for the problem on the iPhone 16 Pro. Some experts suspect that a combination of software and hardware problems could be responsible for the crashes. Apple’s latest operating system iOS 18 could contain bugs that lead to the unexpected restarts. There is also speculation that the new A18 chip architecture is overloaded under certain conditions, causing the crashes.
Apple has already responded to the reports and announced that it is investigating the problem. A software update to fix the problem may already be in the works, but until then there is no immediate solution for affected users. Apple recommends that users ensure all apps are up to date and perform regular software updates for potential improvements.
