S20 overheating??

[Marlena2]

Hi i wonder if anyone who has received their S20 has experienced some overheating? I upgraded from my S9 which occasionally was hot during charging and heavg usage whereas the S20 is getting really hot from normal usage like phone calls or using the phone for longer than 10 mimutes and no where near the heavy usage the S9 went through. Any ideas anyone?? Thanks in advance.

Is this on 5g or normal 3/4g usage?

Be interesting if it is the 5G chip that is causing it

Ignore

This is the 5G version that i have.. really weird as i thought this is suppose to be faster etc.

Only if your network/contract supports 5G and you are connected to a 5G mast.

Depending on where you are, 5G is quite limited in terms of availibility.  In my case, I can get it in some parts of London but in most cases, it will be rare for me to go into a 5G zone

I'm guessing it is an issue and may need to get it replaced

I bought S20 yesterday and I also noticed Tat phone is overheating but I don't buy mask yet maybe I'm noticing because of that

Just received my replacement phone yesterday, this one seems fine for now with normal usage, have to see how it gets on.
