PLEASE READ AND TRY THIS FIX!!!!!!! I have a s20 4G and i was facing overheating problems and to cut it short, the fix consists in DISABLING VIVID COLOURS and USE NEUTRAL COLOURS in the settings. Before doing this, my cpu temperature was staying around 38C and 42C with normal use (scrolling through insta, chrome and youtube) but then it would go up to 44/45C after a minute of asphalt 9. Phone was extremely uncomfortable to use. I disabled vivid colours a few hours ago and the temperature was staying around 31C and 34C. Then I opened real racing 3 and after one race the highest temp the cpu got was 36C.  I haven't seen anything higher than 36C yet and I already got used to the colours. I have more testings to do but so far so good and I hope this is the actual problem so that Samsung can work to fix it. Battery still goes down fast but that's just normal with this phone, there's no fix for that. Share the solution if it works for you.

my one was also overheating but it eventually stopped.
set the display to 60hz and 720p. reset your phone and keep it like that for a few days. that fixed it for me. the overheating lasted a few weeks then it went away
