What's your average battery temperature during decent usage?

Just wondering, in my case, it seems to run into the low 90s, counting the fact that I play Marvel Strike Force on it. I imagine that's not a horrible temp for it?

Anyone?

to my knowledge idle temps should be less than 50c

Ok, well, right now between usage, and charging, probably in part due to the heat here, it's in the mid-high 30s C aka about 95+ F. Just wondering if because the Note 8 is stronger phone, it's easy for it to take running at higher temps often.

i got a note 9 myself. usually all the temps listed in cpuz

 

[tony950]

idel around 40 or so

 

[JnEricsonx]

40 C=about 100 F so....I'm guessing the design is designed for temps like that?

 

[tony950]

probably. I cant say for sure though

Anyone else want to weigh in on their average Note 8 battery temps during moderate usage, etc? Also, this phone is a year old as I bought it off someone else. I'd like a little peace of mind, of course, again, even if the battery is running the high 80s-low 90s from decent use, it's not like I can feel the extra heat, due to having a Otterbox on it. I only feel warmth when I take it off the wireless charger.

Running a couple of Unbox Therapy videos on youtube app for about 15 minutes straight and at times watching the Accubattery Pro app watching temp... steady 83.8 degrees Fahrenheit (28.78 degrees Celcius). That's while in office with AC and relatively cool.

Decide to walk outside where it's showing 93 degrees on my Google weather app in sunny south FLA today and watch a JerryRigEverything video for about 10 minutes and at the 10 minute mark the temp was at 98.2 degrees (36.78 degress Celsius).

And this was 93 degrees in the shade. I know if I was under direct sunlight the Adaptive Display would kick in and probably push the brightness past 700 nits and will get hotter.

As I type this back in my office desk, the video is still playing and the temp has gone back down to 93 degrees in only 3 minutes and few minutes later down to 88.5 (31.39) just sitting on my desk idling just showing AccuBattery temp. gauge. Seems to like to idle at 88.5 now in a cool room and I do feel it's my normal operating range.

So, basically, when you're doing some heavy stuff on it, expect 80s-90s. Ok, I'm just being paranoid then is all. I mean, I never even felt heat on the back unless I had wireless fast charging on, I just turn fast charging off. I just figured it might be because it was a strong phone, but I was worried that since I got this phone at a year old, the battery might already be having issues, but I guess not!

I believe what you're experiencing is pretty normal. These things do get warm or even hot under load. I always avoid dashboard mounting in a car because of additional heat from the sun. I keep it down low with Android Auto running navigation and spotify and of course charging at the same time. It gets a little warm but never shuts down. Using a device with VR goggles they run very hot but tolerable.

I'm just paranoid about my tech. Hell, I don't even like it when my desktop temps during game hit the mid 110-120 F range.
