Charger? Are you plugged in while heating ocurs? There is literally nothing to heat up... Strange

Hello !
Unfortunately, it happens when the phone is unplugged...

I just tested 60hz and it's not as hot...
It seems that 120hz adaptative IS causing that..

But why on lower part of screen? Could be a damaged unit....there is nothing behind....charging port and few cables.... literally....

If you have warranty try to claim it...



Try running 90hz....best compromise.... Search for setedit - no need to root.... It may be best....for me it works...better battery and no human will see difference between 90 and 120

Exactly i can't understand why it is located in the bottom
I will try 90hz THANK YOU very much

Mine is also heating in that area without being plugged.
Really weird, since I'm running stock 12.5.7.0.

Oh so we have the exact same issue !
I'm also on 12.5.7.0
I hope next update is going to correct it ...

People say that 12.5.8 / 12.5.9 are reducing the heat

Are you also using swipe gestures?

Are you also using swipe gestures?

Yes I do
Do you think that this is the cause of heating ?

Well, that's the only thing I can think off. Also, most likely the heat is present on more devices, but people just consider it "warm" rather than heat.
Being on the lower bottom of the screen hides it really well too, as that's not the most interacted part of the screen.

 

[Jaegerist71]

Absolutely

Absolutely
I'm going to use the device without swipe gesture to see if this is the problem
Can you try Too ?

When heat occur/stay it's often when :
- when charging
- when running big apps
- when app(s) drain the battery a lot

Question is how isyour SOT / battery life ?

It happens everytime i am scrolling on social médias ( tik tok, twitter, Facebook, Instagram...)
I'm not gaming at all
When I'm watching youtube or Netflix, the device is cool !
I think it's a refresh rate issue..
My SOT is around 5 hours

Exactly the same in my case. Around 5h sot.
When I watch videos (yt or netflix), screen is really cool.

Really weird

To be fair, in the last 3-4 OTA updates, I haven't done a clean install. (Didn't wiped and format data since I bought the phone).
Refresh rate seem to be a logic reason for it.
Also, a while ago I played with an app that was allowing to change the refresh rate to 90Hz, but it was somewhat buggy and I switched back to 120Hz ever since.

Okay thanks for the feedback
I tried Factory reset and Hard Reset several Times but nothing change...

Guys I just noticed that when I'm outside, next to the ventilator or in a room that is not that hot : my Mi 11 doesn't overtheat AT ALL
