Is your Nexus 10 getting really hot?

When gaming, it gets so hot that it makes me think "this should definitely not be this hot", I would categorize it as "an unusual amount of heat". It makes me afraid I'm going to melt something on the inside haha so I give it a break. I know it's hard to describe temperature over the internet but is yours getting uncomfortably hot?
Near the top/topleft in landscape

Mine sometimes gets on the warm side, but the Nexus 10 has safeguards to prevent "dangerous" temps (your CPU clock will downclock in increments of 100MHz until the CPU gets cooler, and then spike back up to 1.7GHz; lowest I've seen it go was 800MHz).

Download Cooltool at play store and set up what you want to show as a floating widget. This is how I monitor my cpu, batt temp, ram, wifi strength etc. This way you can be more accurate in determining wether your device is too hot and if you should be worried.

Hey thanks a lot for that! but uhh how hot is too hot for the battery?

Mine gets really damn hot as well near the removable cover. I really pondered removing the cover and back and seeing if I can make vents in the back, with a screen, then I can remove that removable cover while gaming. It's most noticeable during Need for Speed most wanted.

It doesn't really bother me, per say, but I'm just worried that its going to mess it up, but at any rate good to know it's "normal"

Normal: 70 d F
TOO HOT: 95 d F

Mine does that too. I have noticed that the case is starting to warp where the heat is most concentrated... Just to the left side by the power button. Between the power button and the camera. Almost like some glue came off and the casing is separating...

That's not good

I was using mines for google talk video chat and it got really hot. I checked the temps and it was at 91F.

Ok I did a test again and it went up to 105F. All this just by video chatting. Thats not normal!

Mines getting hot too just an hour of browsing the web and its extremely warm.

Why do you think that? It's perfectly normal for a chipset like this.

Its not just the top part thats hot like it should be. By holding it with my hands on the side you can feel the heat.

If you blast through the battery in a few hours with 3D gaming or the like the battery will get warm, too (40-50°C).

it was only like 20 minutes. I'm not saying the device getting warm isnt normal. I know that it is. However the first device i had did not get as hot as this.

The N10 is thin and very powerful so heat might be more noticeable. As long as it's "only" getting warm and not slowing down/stuttering in this state, there's nothing to worry about.

lol thats kinda the problem. the video keeps stuttering and freezing and so does the game....

everyone should be undervolting the nexus 10
this device can't even run at stock speeds for extended lengths of time without throttling due to high temperature...
it's easy to test, just run StabilityTest (search google play) and run the Classic Test... you'll eventually see your CPU throttle down from 1700MHz (mine goes down to 1400MHz every so often... i'd probably go down even more if i hadn't undervolted it)
therefore, undervolting it will help it run at stock speeds for longer

I noticed mine heating up for the first time. Don't play many games at the moment. Heated up quite a bit between camera and buttons just like others have mentioned. I was playing ingress when I first noticed. Also when I was just using browser to the ingress/Intel page. I was thinking it had to do with GPS but after reading other comments I guess CPU was working hard refreshing page.

G2 runs HOT!!

Before I swap this thing out, I just wanted to poll you guys and see what the general concencus is.
I'm leaning towards "that's just how it is" after seeing Pocket Lints review that actually called it hot, not warm, but hot.
I have a Note 2 now and doing the same things, replying to forum post emails and browsing around, on WIFI no less, barely gets warm. G2 on the other hand becomes a heating pad...from top to bottom.

Mine gets warm gaming and after a good span on the internet.

Haven't even had mine what I'd really even call warm let alone hot.

Cool as a cucumber here. Gets a little warm when doing something really cpu heavy. Nothing I would call "hot "

How I mention already before in other posts. That is a build in feature of the phone. It is an automatic hand warmer. Specially useful in the winter time.

So warm, room temp, cold as a veggie, and a hand warmer...
But more importantly, you all don't really believe one phone is cold and the other is hot, do you?
I'm inclined to believe they're all the same temp, but we all have different tolerance levels for heat.

Mind blowing...
The only time mine gets warm, (never hot) is after some graphic intensive gaming or Qi charging for a prolonged period (Nokia DT-900)
My Droid MAXX HD was a nice hand warmer though.

Well, obviously that's the case. But I really wanted to believe there was a cooler running G2 out there...its such a great phone.

If it's running "hot" and you've already checked to make sure no apps have gone rogue, then I would definitely return it for another. We have 2 G2's bought from different parts of CA and neither have heat issues.

Hot means its eating battery too. Wouldn't be shocked if you got one from the bottom of the speed bin.

Or it could just mean the phone doesn't dissipate heat very well. I've noticed the screen in particular feeling warmer than I'm used to after some casual usage, but nothing that alarms me.

Have heard some people having heat and throttling issues with heavy graphical applications. However, it has seemed to be coming from the T-Mobile variants. I haven't heard a vzw user complain (yet)
Mine is fine (vzw)

I've been reading about lag, bad battery, phones running hot, volume buttons sticking and so on. I must really have been lucky! I've tried duplicating the problems but can't. I play games and surf the internet and forums for sometimes an hour and no heat issue

+1. None of these issues are present with my device.

Yeah no issues here either. and get an app that reads batt. temp at least if ur gonna compare heat levels. Mine never gets above 100 F. my s4 only got to about 96 on heavy usage. And i just returned a Moto x cause it climbed to the highest ive seen a phone, 117.

I truly believe these issues belong to people who came from older phones and are not well educated on how to efficiently use a smart phone. They load their phones with garbage apps and let it all run in the background while running game or streaming video in the foreground. They have a smoking fast phone that can run it all at once, but they are the first to cry and blame the phone when the battery drains fast or the phone gets hot.

Mine doesn't even get warm, let alone hot.

I have the VZW model. I'd like to know what game or games people are experiencing bad performance with so i can test it. Anyone willing to share?

Replacement gets just as hot. I highly doubt I got 2 bad phones, tho I can't get GPS working on the new one. Went back to the Note 2...barely warm. I am surprised by the amount of you that are saying it doesn't get warm @ all though. I think I'm just more sensitive to heat and have a lower tolerance threshold than most of you. Thanks for all the replies.

[Q] Note 4 heating, hardware or software?

Hello everyone, I recently purchased a new note 4 St N910C. Just after a day of usage I felt that it is getting hot when I play games on it. I closed all the background apps even resetted it but still no luck. My phone is getting heated up near the camera area. My question is that is this a hardware issue or a software one, because if it is a hardware issue I should try and get it replaced, if a software one I should better wait for a lollipop update.
Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated
Thanks

It is completely normal that your phone gets hot around the camera since you are playing a game...What is the temperature you get while playing?

Would also like to know how hot your unit gets

Well i bought this unit after along study of whether to get the exynos version or the snapdragon version, in my opinion I found the exynos to be better because many users suggested that this version does not heat up and works better, but now as I'm using it personally I think it heats up alot, the temperature I get is around 36-38 degrees.

Galaxy Note 4 heating [camera]
I purchased Galaxy Note 4 [SM-N910G] a week back. It's on Android 4.4.4 (KitKat)
I am having a different problem for which I could not find any satisfying solution on the Internet. Whenever I open camera app, the phone starts heating up near camera & battery also drains very quickly [around 2% under 5 min.]
I know that the phone will heat up a little bit when playing high graphics games, but I don't think it should heat up too much when using camera app.
I have already factory reset [both soft & hard reset] the phone, but still it does not help. I contacted Samsung support, & they told me to 'Reset app preferences' from Application manger, but still the device heats up when using camera app.
I also cleared data of the camera app, but still the issue remains
The phone does not heat up at all on standby mode, but opening camera app raises it's temperature more than it should. Previously a Note 2 user, this problem was not there.
Anyone else experiencing the same issue on Note 4 ? Any ideas on this ?

The phone heats up only if you're recording 4k or 2k video.If you use camera generally & your device heats up.You must get your device checked

You can factory reset all day, it won't help. Thats not a problem, the camera just uses a lot of processor power and thus generates heat. You can't change that, you have to live with it

My note 4 with ****y snapdragon heat like fire
I wanna replace it because of the overheating I can't something even hold it I put is always in freezer to cold it
With cpu temp app it gave me 60c even without games the :crying:best value was 40c but when I put it in freezer it down to 30c
And the weard thing that at the same time the cpu temperature app gave me 60c the cpu cooler app gave me 34c
Weard which is right? ??
This phone is making me crazy

Sorry, but do you have any idea about CPU temperatures? 60 isn't bad. 40 isn't bad. 30 isn't bad. Even 70° and occasionally 79° would be acceptable. Don't put your phone into the freezer, ity not good to freeze the hardware.. Especially if you literally have no problem. The CPU is prone to temperature fluctuations and your values are fully normal in the world of CPUs. There is no best value, everything up to 70° is the normal temperature variation. Your phone doesn't have a problem, its perfectly fine.

Mine actually heats up while charging and using at same time. Clean master shows 70-75°C cpu temperature while using browser and stuff but 80+ while gaming, that's not normal right? I'm worried cuz I always used my old phones while charging and they never got this hot, I feel like it will melt someday :/ In what temperatures exynos operates?

I got my SM-N910F yesterday and installed LP 5.0.1 via OTA. Temperatures are 40+ when the phone isnt doing anything. While I did the Antutu Benchmark, it was around 50-52 degrees (Celsius). Feels much warmer than my previous Note 3 (which of course never had LP). And since i am not used to this temparature on my Note 3, i kinda worry about the temps right now. I read a lot that many have that problem since LP update. So whats normal and what would be too high for regular usage (not using Camera or playing Games) ? Is there an average i can go by and compare ?
And whats my alternatives now if I want lower temps , go back to 4.4.4 Stock Rom (currently have LP 5.0.1 Stock) or do I try a 5.x Custom ROM . Did the Custom ROMS fixed these heating problems or is that just something I have to live with ?
Thanks for any help.

galaxy s8 heats up

My s8 heats up a bit not too much but enough to make my fingers uncomfortable from taking in too much heat. I have the screen resolution set on 1080p. Anyone else facing this issue?

When you're doing intensive stuff the phone will heat up, all of them heat up.

So far the S8 has run cooler than any of my past snapdragon devices.

What is the temperature your battery temperature goes in s8?
I after using s7edge and s8 I notice heats a little bit more than s7edge more 4 degrees, i have been using both at same time and usage, and heats more,
S7 edge around 30 32
s8 34 36 is not normal,.
Other day get to 40 easily.

Galaxy s8 Gets Hot

Hi i bought the device two days ago and whenever i use it (i start opening Facebook, instagram, WhatsApp and other apps) it gets Pretty warm in the right side or the screen and behind. The CPU reaches 50 degrees and sometimes 55 and the worries me. What should i do? Is it normal or should i return it? I previously had an Honor 7 and it reaches the same temps but it doesnt feel that warm at the touch, it Just gets warm in the bottom left corner.
the temp while i'm typing is 41C, outside its 33degrees C and inside(where i am now) its 24degrees.

I do not believe this is normal whatsoever. My S8+ has been one of the coolest-running Samsung phones I have ever owned. You might want to return/exchange it if that is possible.
I have not used/tested with any apps to determine actual Temps but it never gets hot. It gets warmer but not very hot (like my S7 Edge did) when using Gear VR.
Have you done the simple things like closing all apps & rebooting? Clearing cache, etc? Maybe some app is "stuck."

I would say 5mins. Now it gets maximum 48 degrees in the CPU but i feel the screen and the body Pretty warm... Maybe it's me... I don't know. Feel free ti suggest me what should i do

it is absolutely not normal
my first device share the same issue with your's
well i ask for a exchange, the new unit just go to 45 when running games, most of time it wouldn't even reach 40 degrees
but
new device came with new problems, red tints, home button problem
it's up to you
ask for replacement until you'er satisfy with it

I would get an exchange(Yeah right the real me would hold on to it until it melted because i'm lazy). So far this is the coolest smart device I have ever owned. Even when playing intense 3d games and emulators it only warms up a little.

Thanks Guys! I'm going to return it on Monday.

If you're constantly scrolling and opening posts the phone will get warm, Facebook isn't exactly a battery friendly app, but if you're stuck at a post and reading it for a while it shouldn't get warm, it really depends how you use the phone. I can get my phone warm using twitter too. My friends z5 with the sd810 gets toasty.

Mate. The CPU throttles when it reaches 80C. What are you worrying about?
I advise reading your manual, which specifically tells you that the device will heat up with use and the heatpipe is located on the top right section of the phone x)
The reason why it may feel hotter than your previous (?) phone is because the metal rim (and whole body) acts as a heat spreader and the heatpipe connects to it with a thermal pad.

Trueee ?

Cpu temps keeps spiking up and down on any device that actually has a cpu.
What you need to look for is battery temp and not cpu temps. I consider battery temps a more steady measure of over heating rather than cpu as they dont spike.
Eitherways heavy bad background apps will make any device hot. Now if your just browsing on chrome with no background apps and your device temp ( battery temp ) is around 40c in a 20c room thats when ill be worried and exchange the device.
But hey thats just me
Gd luck !
