Its not horrible but definitely warm towards upper left screen, all of the back. Worse than any previous phone... any chance this goes away a little? Also is anyone else anoyed with the insane ammount of fingerprints lol... both of theese issues are getting on my nerves. Otherwise I like it.

[MadFoodScientist]

Mine is very hot as well! I think it might be cause I am downloading lots of apps- contacts- emails...etc- Hopefully it goes a way once everything is set up

[Channan]

Mine is pretty warm as well.

[jd10984]

I hope this is just typical, not faulty units.

[Stang68]

Yeah, mine was warm this morning when it was doing a whole lot. It's cool now.

Fingerprints...welcome to the world of touchscreen phones lol

My Nexus S 4G is hot too, especially with the Wimax radio on.

I am sure my GN will be hot too.

[terpitude71]

its gonna be warm quite a bit for the first few days because youre going to be using it pretty heavily . once you get on a regular usage cycle, i would expect it to only get warm for the usual reasons (heavy data usage; heavy gps)

[Clancy3434]

this morning when it was downloading all of my saved apps, which was incredibly fast btw (i'm coming from a droid x... wow what a difference)... i noticed it getting pretty hot. everything's been normal since then.

[mechapathy]

It is getting a little warm, but that's normal considering I haven't put it down since 9:30 EST!

On the fingerprints front, I find it collects way less than my OG did.

Quick question, I always charge when I'm in the truck. With my new Nexus, the phone got so hot that I could not hold it on my ear! I went to the Verizon store to complain and found that the demo unit was very hot, also. The demo unit was significantly hotter than any other phone. Would you please check your's when charging does it get to hot to hold to your ear? Otherwise, a awesome phone.

Thanks

Mine was hot when I was downloading my apps... cooled down afterwards and hasn't really gotten hot since.

[slopokdave]

I've had an Evo, Epic, and Nexus; all using the same car charger. They seem to behave differently. I guess I wonder which car charger you are using? But otherwise, this is normal, especially in the car/truck where it may be more-so in the sun a little and in constant use.

[Gshaw31]

ok, I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks guys for the quick response!

yeah, mine was a bit warm this morning after playing with it. The top part of the phone is the part that is warm. I haven't charge it yet because I'm attempting to discharge the battery and fully recharge it. I will definitely use a bluetooth when talking on the phone for a long duration ...

will report back.

Got mine on wall charger right now and all is good. Also downloaded a few apps and it got a little warm but nothing close to hot.

[JoeNM84]

I have a feeling the larger screens get on phones along with the thinner they are getting that heat will be more and more noticeable with these phones. Does the Razr get hot? I haven't charged my GN yet and havent had it get "hot" for me, but I haven't been able to play around with it too much yet.

[hyperdude]

I've had it on the wall charger for an hour or two now. I was still using it, texting and checking Facebook and such. I noticed the top part of the screen (and the back cover) were strangely warm - pulled off the battery cover and the top area inside was kind of hot. Reminds me of how when my OG Droid would get hot (about 40 deg C).
I'm not too worried about it. Leaving the phone alone for ten or twenty minutes cooled it off

It is my understanding from a previous post that it actually bad to ever let these batteries completely discharge. Someone let me know if I'm wrong.


will report back.

jeez.. hope this isnt really an issue.. seems like alot of people are affected by it.. a device getting overly hot is a bad sign.

I think this is more a side effect from using 4G data a lot on a really thin phone (and one with a big display no less). I don't notice any issue when I just leave the phone alone. When I chug 100MB of data in 10 minutes syncing my account, then it gets a little warm

[scils8]

Picked mine up went back to work and threw it on the charger about 20 minutes later it was extremely hot texted my friend who also picked one up and he was having the same problem.

[Gshaw31]

Seems like it only get's hot while in use. I turned it off and it charged quickly and temp was very cool. I charged off pc and again cool. So, must only be a problem when charging and using the GN. Check for your self and let me know.

Thanks again
Gman

[wheezy]

Turn off the 4g radio unless you need it on. Will save power and should cool it down. I wonder if its taking on too much power at once. Is there an app for monitoring hardware on this?

[Jodiuh]

Just like the Fascinate, amoled screen gets stupid hot. My fingers are sweaty. Tbolt runs MUCH cooler.

[cdunn05#AC]

Every LTE phone I've had has gotten hotter than hell when I've used it. I just accept it for what it is. I like to use it, let it get hot, and slap it on people's necks.
