S24 Ultra running HOT

[GusB]

I have submitted a report on this, but as a gauge; is anyone else experiencing quite significant heat when using the phone during gaming or intensive tasks? Lots of a phones get hot...but this is next level heat being generated...

Are you running anything resource intensive on your phone @GusB  ?

I think your question is answered on @GusB 's post. "quite significant heat when using the phone during gaming or intensive tasks"

@GusB what sort of temperature are we talking about? Does you app shows numbers instead of emojis?

Is it too hot to hold?

[GusB]

It pretty much is too hot to handle, screen and back get very hot.

Running games or certain apps as I did with S23 Ultra but that didn't generate this much heat...

I don't have numbers to share for temperature

[Reylob]

That is really worrying. Let's hope that it is a faulty phone and not a designed flaw.

How long are you using the phone before it gets too hot?

[GusB]

I'll download the temp reading plugin from Samsung and post what it shows

[GusB]

Within a few mins it get hot

Test 1 CarX Street:

- charged phone to 100% battery, it didn't get hot but let it rest for a few mins
- load up CarX Street temperature shows 33 degrees
- after just 10 mins playing temp shows 46 degrees
- maintains 45/46 temperature
- lost 10% battery after less than 20mins play
- GPU 85-95%

Test 2, Wreckfest:

- let the phone cool down
- load game, temperature shows 33/34
- loading screen temperature rises to 36
- 7 minutes of play gets up to 42 degrees
- GPU 90-99%

@GusB are you contemplating having the phone swapped out?
