AC Question

I'm using my S7 Edge since friday and I noticed that while browsing or doing other "non heavy" tasks my phone gets warm, especially on the back but also the screen. I then downloaded the app CPU-Z and started to check the temperature in certain situations. When my phone ist resting on a desk, it idles between 24-26 C. When I carry it in my pocket, it idles between 29-32 C. And when I'm using it for more than 2 minutes the heat starts rising to 33-36 C.
I'm not sure if these numbers are normal for a smartphone but because I can feel the heat so much more than while using my old phone (Z3, which means it had a glass back too) I'm not sure if i got a faulty unit.
The only explanation I can imagine is that because of the new implemented heat pipe in the S7, the heat which normally would stay in the phone and maybe throttle the processor now gets spreaded onto the back of the phone to cool the processor and thats why I can feel it more than the Z3.
What temperature do you get and do you have the same experiences of your S7 (Edge) getting warm?
