So I just recorded my first UHD video today and this happened

Apparently, after the video recorded and all the 5 minutes were finished, I went to the brightness settings and said that the device was heating.

Does the device really warm up while recording UHD?

Just to add. After a minute, the heat warning in the brightness was gone.

Never recorded more than a couple of minutes of uhd but I imagine the chip inside is working overtime so a little bit of heat would be normal and seeing as the warning has gone I wouldn't worry!!

So the phone getting warm during video recordings is normal?

I wouldn't be too concerned. The phone will get warm or excessively hot regardless of what you're doing if it is intensive. Recording UHD or playing a game, or editing high res photo will do that. I'm assuming you're using an app indicating it needs to cool off. Keep in mind, when recording UHD make sure to use an SD card that can write fast, usually micro SD sdxc models.

I think I remember reading about this when this feature was tested during reviews back when this phone came out. Or that it's common with this type of feature on this generation of phones
