Nexus warming up

[sliyk]

Hi guys
I just wanted to ask what the general opinion regarding heating of the phone is. On wifi it takes a lot for the phone to get warm but when I am on 4g and just browsing(i don't do anything g heavy on the phone like gaming but multitasking like Facebook what's app and chrome etc) the top end of the phone gets warm noticeably, not uncomfortable but still warm. I wasn't expecting it on the 3rd day of use so am I being paranoid or did I get a lemon?

Paranoid.... the metal body conducts heat away from the cpu very efficiently so it is going to get warm. If it gets so hot you can not touch it then I would get nervous.

Thanks for the reply. I am using the rubber case I ordered with the phone so many the phone is unable to dissipate the heat and it gets trapped and makes the screen warm as well?

Cases trap heat. I always have my phone naked, and this phone has been running cooler than my old nexus 6. I remember that phone heating up just browsing. The only time this phone heats up is when its rapid charging, or playing full screen games. Other than that it's been great.

I get what you mean but I think a little part of me will die with this phone if I dropped it and it broke
