[Q]Your Lumia 800 would heat in 3G mode?

[Jason_Forever]

My Lumia 800 would heat when i surfing the Internet or watching videos in 3G mode.I mean it would get very hot even i use it for short time.I dont know if its 3G model has some problems.And when i use it in 2G mode,it runs normally and heat little.

Nope. Mine doesn't heat up much even though I am on 3G mode almost all the time. Once in a while it does get quite warm, but it's rare.

Nope. Never. I was surprised how it didn't get warm like my HTC. I browse a lot and stream music over 3G literally for hours on the way and it doesn't make a difference. Maybe different batches of hardware?

lumia 800 has a built-in battery and its unibody design which may be the reason why it is easy to heat up

my lumia 800 heats up like hell while charging -.-

 

[dankspain]

Mine does heat up when using it a lot. But I suffer from battery draining every now and then while on 3g, then it stays hot all the time untill battery runs out. It has to be a software thing since last update it got much better and now the battery can stand a day on 3g and 2 days on 2g.

Mine heats up randomly, sometimes while charging (with a different one than the one supplied), sometimes while gaming for hours, but nothing as such only because of 3G, I am on 3G all the time, with 3 apps sending push notifications, email, and audio streaming for hours together!

my suggestion is that reboot your device when it heat up,and it works on my 800

I mean it's easy to heat up when surfing the Internet or something like that in 3G.Those apps sending push notifications...dont cause it heating up that much

yeah,the update fix some software bugs and the device performs better than used to do,but its duration performance doesnt look that good as i expected

Facing same problem with 3G

I have a Nokia C5 I am facing same problem on 3G mode. When I download a song, or watch a video on Youtube for continuos 5 minutes it get so much hot, my backside of the phone has Aluminium cover which gives the feeling like burning when using 3G. This heating up problem has affected my phone's battery life.

Symbian OS is better than Windows Phone in this condition,and you have a removeable battery
