LG G7 ThinQ Overheating?

[mammothjojo88]

Hello all,
I finally got my G7 ThinQ replaced yesterday and got it all set up.. I used it today and one of the things I noticed is over heating. Anyone else experience this? Attaching screenshots to see. The photos with Twitter on it shows the temperature at the top left by the clock.

The sides are definitely uncomfortable. Not to the point of burning, but enough that I can hold the phone without repositioning. I thought that it was just me.

It's not just you. I am having this issue too. I wanted to exchange it again but I'm tried of doing that. Im sure there will be an update to fix this.

Today looks to be a little better

Does it actually "feel" hot? Mine hasn't shown any signs of this at all. Just using Twitter etc is enough to trigger it?

Yes it feels hot. Using YouTube or Spotify in the background, while checking Twitter or xda. It got hot.

My unit doesn't get that hot. In run Google Play while checking Facebook and whatnot and it only gets warm.

What would you expect? Your phone's on LTE not on WiFi, of course it must be hot when moving bytes over network. And 62°C isn't too hot temp for CPU. Over 80°C is when it'll start to minimize frequency

Do you run in on WiFi? That way it won't get hot, at least as much hot as if on LTE

It happened with me when I was setting up the phone. Seems fine now
