The hissing iPhone 7 problem
“Allow at least five hours before charging or connecting a Lightning accessory”, Apple says in the official documentation for the iPhone 7.

We do not think that there are any snakes inside the iPhone.
Consumers can still order the phone online or through their wireless carrier. Twitter user Darrell Etherington issued a post detailing his own experience of the iPhone 7’s hissing sound, explaining that he did not even have to restore his phone and was just downloading some files.
It found that while there was a noticeable hiss coming from the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus, that same hiss appeared to be present in other, older devices. Moreover, iMore said there is nothing to worry about the noise because numerous devices produce noises during heavy processing activities. iMore is a known technology website.
We’ve contacted Apple for confirmation and asked whether they know the cause of this error but have not yet received an answer.
According to Ritchie’s investigation, this problem isn’t unique only to the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. “My iPhone 7 Plus makes awful noises when under load”, Hackett wrote in a Saturday tweet, which links to a YouTube recording highlighting the hiss. They’ve got “solid-state” Home buttons that vibrate using an internal Taptic Engine rather than actually clicking, and once winter rolls around, some iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus owners may have to get some special gloves to use their phones. The site thinks that it could be attributed to “coil whine”, the sound “a high-powered processor or virtually any electronic part can make, especially when it’s not properly dampened”. Apple has so far declined to comment.
While the obvious candidate remains Apple’s A10 Fusion processor the question remains how? how can a fanless chip make a noise like it seemingly does have one? The affected phones have trouble regaining cellular service afterwards, resulting in many calls to AT&T and Verizon.

In reply to Hackett’s tweet, Apple’s customer care team suggested him to go to an Apple store and get it replaced.
