As we've posted before, most heating is normal, as phones give off heat when using power or when charging.

Honestly, I don't think there's a problem. Newer phones, with more powerful processors and functions, running more demanding apps, run warmer than older models. We need to know the temperature of the phone that the user thinks is too hot to see if the phone is running within operating specifications.
People who change phones every year will probably not be surprised by today's warmer-running phones. People who have used the same phone for two years or more, probably will be.
And yes, warming is normal. But we want to help you get used to the way these newer phones run.

Arey yar just stop posting here. If you post then make some sense of it. Motorola knows our problems. They are searching for a solution. Finally I say don't post silly comments over here.
Hey guys,
First of all pardon me for the length of this post. I have been following this thread for almost 2 weeks now. And all the statements, made by the senior members/moderators of this forum have been to the same effect, most heating is normal. Infact, one of the senior members even went on to say that he/she would help us get used to the way these newer phones ran! So i decided to find out for myself if this is how the newer phones ran. And as some of our Indian friends blamed us of over-reacting, i also needed to find out, are we posting silly comments? Does motorola really know our problems and are we hindering their 'solution finding'? Lets find out...
Below is the list of some the branded phones in budget segment(except oneplus 3,which i will explain later y i included) that have released in the last one year or so. All these phones were tested by the same person(geekyranjit) under the same conditions. The test was to measure the temperature of these phones after gaming on them for 10-12 minutes. All the tests were done using the same games. Lets find out how normal is our phone compared to other newer phones..
Oneplus 3
Snapdragon 820(Dual-core 2.15 GHz Kryo & dual-core 1.6 GHz Kryo)
Current price: ₹27999
Front: 42.0
Back : 41.6(went to 43 in asphalt 8)
Leeco/Letv le2
Snapdragon 652 (Quad-core 1.4 GHz Cortex-A53 & Quad-core 1.8 GHz Cortex-A72)
Current price: ₹11999
Front: 40.1
Back : 40.5
Xiaomi redmi note 3
Snapdragon 650(Quad-core 1.4 GHz Cortex-A53 & Dual-core 1.8 GHz Cortex-A72)
Current price: ₹11999(32 gb)
Front : 43.6
Back(Aluminium): 38.3
Moto G turbo
Snapdragon 615(Quad-core 1.5 GHz Cortex-A53 & quad-core 1.0 GHz Cortex-A53)
Current price: ₹12499
Front : 41.7
Back : 42.0
Lenovo K4 Note
Mediatek MT6753(Octa-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A53)
Current price: ₹11999
Front : 43.3
Back : 43.5
Lenovo Zuk z1
Snapdragon 801(Quad-core 2.5 GHz Krait 400)
Current price: ₹13499
Front 43.5
Back 44.3
Lenovo Moto g4 plus
Snapdragon 617(Quad-core 1.5 GHz Cortex-A53 & quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A53)
Current price: ₹14999
Front 45.5(paticularly hot at top)
Back 44.2
Ash from c4etech got 48.6 degree at front top after 30 minutes of gaming. Abhinav from phonebunch got 47.1 degree in the front and 50.3 degree at the back while gaming for 15 minutes without an AC on but in indoor conditions.
Please Note:
All the tests are done indoors under an AC with an ambient temperature of 27-28 degrees, unless specified otherwise. So heatwave has nothing to do with these temperatures.(Not getting personal, just clarifying)
One plus 3 does not fall under the 'budget' smartphone category but i included it in the list because it uses the latest and the most powerful chipset in the midrange smartphone segment. So if such heat was normal in today's faster processors, this phone should exhibit the most heat.
Conclusion:
All Lenovo phones heat quite a bit more than the other smartphones in this category and that is why probably moderators think that such heat is normal. But no branded phone heats as much as moto g4 plus, not even lenovo's other devices in this segment. So how many of u guys think that this is all normal? Except for oneplus 3 every phone in this list is cheaper than moto g4 plus and most of them have almost the same specs. Do u still think that we are over-reacting and everything is normal with this phone?
and yes they give quick charge 1.0??**** moto
