iphone-7-and-boxSome customers of the new iPhone 7 are reporting that the device is making a ‘hissing sound’ whenever the iPhone is under heavy loads (such as multitasking, during games, etc.)  The problem seems to be the company’s newest A10 processor.

The issue was first brought to public attention by 512 Pixels‘ Stephen Hackett, and has since been pointed out by a number of people online, such as TechCrunch‘s Darrell Etherington. Hackett commented that after calling AppleCare, support staff decided to offer a replacement unit.

To be fair, similar issues have happened with some previous iPhone models.

While some has speculated that it could be the RF transmitter or something that has to do with the iPhone’s sound system, Apple has yet to say anything about the problem.
