Heating Issues

[riceman588]

I recently got the zenfone 2 laser ze551kl about a week ago. Since the first day that I've used it, I noticed that the back of the phone, gets a bit hot pretty quick (like in 5 minutes), whenever i use it to play some light and casual games or browse the internet. It's gets hot around the camera area. I would think that the phone would heat up in half an hour or something like that. Is it normal for this phone to heat up like this?

I would say that is rather uncommon as mine only heats up when playing games like Hearthstone. Otherwise even when browsing the web it stays cool. Could you use CPU-Z to get the thermal readings?

I'm the same user as the one up top. my bad. forgot my password and the site is acting strange, so im on a different account. I don't know how to add my screenshots to this post, of the thermal readings that I've done. I can tell you that on standby mode, the temperature of the battery is around 28 degrees celsius, while my sensors are picking up 36 degrees celsius. After 5 minutes of web-browsing, temperature of the battery is around 33 degrees celsius, while my sensors are picking up 40 degrees celsius. I mean, I don't think that is much to conclude if my battery is defected or not, but i think the amount of increase in the temperature in 5 minutes is a bit odd to me. Sorry for not replying sooner. I have to study for exams and all that, so I'm a bit occupied these days.

Also, to anyone who has this phone, what temperature do you get and how long does it take you to reach to that temperature?

Well my phone seems to be running about 8-10 degrees cooler than yours at all points in time across all sensors. Is it in any sort of case?
