Default Galaxy S III Will overheat?

Hi, wish to ask a question to whom tried sgs3 in uk presentation or already own it

The sgs2 was well known for overheating,expecially under the rear camera,when intensive use

Do The sgs3 suffer the same problem?

I think you mean will the SGS3 get warm? Overheating would cause most likely reboot and the phone would be pretty much unusable.

I dont own the phone but Ill say that there is a 99% chance that it gets warm when in use. All my devices (SGS,SGS2,Prime,Ideos X5) get hot from the back when you use them for intensive web browsing or gaming.
Nexus 4, SGS3, Huawei Ideos X5, HTC Wildfire, Asus Transformer Prime, Nokia N9

It should run at slightly lower temperatures doing high intensity activities than other devices because of Samsung's High-K+ Metal Gate technology - the iPad 2,4 revision uses the same process and runs about a degree cooler than the older iPad2 revisions. There is less voltage leak being dissipated as heat with this set up. See Anandtech's article on the iPad2,4 revision for more detail.

Comment of an owner of the phone from android.hdblog.it

Did the GS3 became hot in the 15 minutes of web-browsing?Like the GS2 does?


iNicc0lo
Look, I gotta be honest, I expected it to became hotter...
Well actually it doesn't get that much hot, it's even colder than the GS2 in normal usage.

thats the temperature of battery and not the cpu. exynos in sgs2 didnt had the cpu temp sensor, s3 too dont have one.
