Gets pretty warm

[danmo76]

Just bought my note 10.1 2014 and I have noticed that even after a short use there are several areas that get fairly warm and almost hot. The most notable is the area to the right of the Samsung at the top of the tablet. Is this normal during use or should I return the unit???

Pretty much normal... That is where processor is so it run warm...

This heating issue is most likely due to the Index Services process and S-Finder app trying to index the sd card (I'm assuming you're using a microSD card, but the issue may happen on the device storage as well)
It's been widely reported that with the Kit Kat update apparently this process gets "stuck" trying to index pdf files and causes the processor to overheat.
Try (again, assuming you're rooted) greenifying or freezing with TB these and check your results, worked for me.
