How were you using it?

Was it charging while playing games? Or just casual usage?

I've used it while charging it shouldn't be hot. I'm using a 2.0 charger too. I've done it with a case on and off. Swap it for another.

Bad unit? Mine is definitely not getting hot.

May be bad unit I guess. Was charging and downloading stuff from play store. It went so mush hot that I couldn't hold anymore. Had to lay it on down on the couch n use. @jaypeg123

I remember reading in the AMA thread about this. The combination of charging and downloading updates seem to get the phone heated up. Anyone else want to test this out?

It's an all metal body, so it's going to be warmer than a plastic phone especially during charging and first boot (optimizing apps). The body acts as a heat sink. It should never be too hot to hold, though. That's why I was asking what temperature it got up to.

Never had this problem so far.

FedEx just dropped mine off an hour or so ago.

yeah, it does get warmer than my Nexus 5 did. but it's nothing outrageous. likely because it's so thin. I'm going to slap a case on it soon anyway.

Is the bandwidth sharing enabled by default? That is known to generate extreme heat, and is only active when charging.
