Heat

Some phones are great to take camping because if you play Asphalt 8 long enough, the back warms up to the ideal temperature that can bake bread. Rate this thread to express the extent to which the Moto Z2 Force stays cool under extended heavy use. A higher rating indicates that even when playing strenuous games for long periods of time, the phone doesn't get uncomfortably warm.

this device overheats while being used for vr, and when being used with amlost any moto mod i have the camera, projector, and jbl speaker and all of them cause the phone to get hot. anyone wanna test? just use a mod for 20 min and then remove it and touch the back its very warm near the pinout. the cpu is in the lower half of the device.

no heat issue unless playing heavy duty game or play 2 hr more video

My last phone was a moto G4 plus which overheated like hell, I play a lot of pokemon go, and the device gets a bit warm, but nothing too much to worry about, also in intensive games gets fairly toasty but really, nothing like other phones. Also consider what it says here about our phone overvolted compared to other phones with the same chip. I actually won't make modifications to the stock rom of this phone until some development gets stronger, but it's possible to get better battery life and most importantly better thermals tweaking some stuff.

i just made a moto mod that cools my phone and recharges it at the same time. PUBG doesn't even get my device hotter than 35c after 2+hours(added the current data from all my testing)

I'll second that, mine gets hot wheels the game pad or turbo mod are connected.

It's possible for the phone to get hot under high loads or when charging, especially with the TurboPower mod, but it's nothing crazy.
Over all, for a titanium back, great thermals.

On benchmark it goes hot as hell. Never do a benchmark again. Was 3D Mark.

01/2019 Real user review Haven't felt any lag even on heavy usage. All apps load pretty fast. RAM management is great! Scrolling is pretty smooth, no complains. On long calls or on updates while charging it can heat up , but nothing considerable.

A8 will be hot? I actually used this phone to play a9, unbelievable.?

Hello friends, I'm from Brazil and I'm translating this message through google. I have a z2 force about 2 years ago, I recently bought a mod 360 camera, The problem is that when I go to make videos the phone heats up more, to the point of starting to catch. The videos from about 12-15 min in duration starts to crash! Does anyone have this problem too?

My P20 Pro gets VERY warm even without gaming under heavy screen usage. Lightroom, google photos, email, hangouts... I then put it in my pants pocket and could feel the heat noticeably till it cooled down.

My p20 pro is still pretty cold as it hasn't arrived yet

I've been surprised at the lack of heat!

Weird. Mine is fine. Something sucking up cpu time in the background maybe?

Mine gets quite warm even after light use (especially in the upper left corner).
Does the same happen to you? Is it normal?

Hi, same thing happens to me, albeit after a bit longer/more demanding use.
I've noticed when playing PUBG only, after the latest update that gives the game suite and some sec updates i think, the phone becomes warm, and then the heat from the battery/cpu interferes with the touchscreen and exactly where my finger is to move in pubg, its the warmest.
Thus it stops registering my finger and i quit moving in the game, wouldn't notice this on daily use of course, but i think it is a huge issue. Not because i died multiple times due to that in the game, but as it is a new and kindof premium phone, this shouldn't happen at all and was working perfectly for 2 months before that.
I've even installed an app to measure the temperature and it goes up to about 49 degrees celsius.
Any ideas?

Don't have any issue. Was using iPhone 6 and it was literally burning while am playing any game.
This device is far from getting warm compared to iPhone 6 and 7.

I'd say the P20 Pro is average when it comes to heat during use. It will never get uncomfortably hot, but can get fairly warm when gaming.

Just a normal heating.. While playing heavy games like mc4.. Or gangstas Vegas for about half an hour..

While performing Bench mark tests I observed heating which is common on all the mobiles other than that I havent noticed any heating.
BTW I live in India where current temperature is around 43 Degree Celsius

I played PUBG for about 20 minutes and the back did heat up a bit but nowhere near as much as my old Honor 7.

I'm getting heating issue on the back of the phone while heavy gaming, which is normal for certain phone, the problem is the game start to lag, framedrop, the phone getting thermal throttling.. make bad experience while gaming.
anyone having this issue?

Does it make your pubg lag? drop in fps?

Today i was running Antutu Benchmark and the Honor 10 get hot as ****.
Compared to Honor 9 the Honor 10 generates much more heat. Its uncompfortable to hold in the hand. Especially the volume Keys get heated up. Not an issue for every day usage but the Kirin SoC is an hottie under heavy benchmark load.

No I haven't had anything like that but I didn't play for too long, I'll let you know if it happens.

Try max all the setting, it run really smooth, but, at some point, the fps will drop, and sluggish..
To get you some idea,
HDR - around 5 mnt..the game will lag
Balanced - around 20 mnt ingame, then i need to change the setting to smooth to make the game less lag

The phone gets a little warm when playing PUBG, but nothing out of the ordinary.

Without gaming, intensive usage produces no heat! I didn't game soooo, maybe it wont either! xD

Good to hear, usually most phones I have used, when browsing the web for a while, the phone heats up.

The processor is optimized well. The device gets warm with heavy multi tasking but not hot. Only time it gets above 42 degrees at the back is if you play PUBG at HD and Extreme FPS with the case on!
Then again, the phone is limited to Medium and Balanced for optimization reasons!

I played pubg for 20-30 minutes with adaptive brightness and it just got little warm only

I used 3 to 4 models of Moto compared to them heat is very less. Some times it heat little bit. Noting to worry .

Sorry, no heat at all. Tried with COD, Pubg, Real Racing, Cyber Hunter etc.

I think this phone warms more than others in its price range (though I never played games on a phone).
Nothing to worry about but with regular use it heats up.

Can't agree.
Even when using navigation or playing a game my device doesn't get warm at all.

You have bad apps or faulty device. Mine is the most cold phone I have ever had. My phone is always cold to the touch unless I play heavy games and even when playing heavy games at 60fps it's only slightly warm and still perfectly comfortable to hold even when gaming for over 1 hour.

Using for a month now, Heats up to 43 degrees sometimes while charging. Otherwise, it's cool even while playing games like pubg for a long time.

by far the coolest phone (literally) I've ever had. Even with stress tests the phone gets barely warm. I tried throttle tests too. even after very long periods of time there's no thermal throttle at all. this might be one of the best qualities of this phone

Today I realized that the Redmi Note 9 Pro is a cooling expert. It was 29 degrees C outside and I walked on the streets with my phone in my front left pocket of my jeans. I definitely felt my left leg freezing. That much cooling from a phone? Is that possible? I mean, I felt it's possible... Cool.!
Great job xiaomi, intentionally or not.

that's what you get after putting the phone in the freezer for a couple of hours and then placing it on your pants, you don't really need to use a phone for that..

Great phone, No heating after playing Pubg for long time.
Best devices from all of my others phone.
