Same here lol.

Hi guys I have a question regarding Z5/P.

May I know does the camera app shut down when phone is getting hot? How frequent is it? And how long the app will last before it's shutting down?

FYI I'm using Z3+ and is facing the dreaded overheating issue, especially the camera app, I can't keep the app for more than 20 second, otherwise it'll just shut down.

Also, my camera app will confirm shut down if I run it right after restarting the phone. Does this happen to Z5/P?

Thank you very much guys!

Ok.. I only faced once for the app close cause overheating message appear. But this is because I having flip case. I take around and around 15 minutes standby and shooting time. Under hot sun at 12pm time.

After I'm using naked or tpu back case, no more close down. But I do test 4k video 5 minutes and it's still going. I do record nearly 1 hour video for time lapse video it's fine during 5-6pm.. Right now I don't use any case.

Nope i havent encountered any camera apps shutdown yet, even thou i played around with it alot. it does heat up when u use camera, but no shutdown or anything, as for 4k video, yes it get's hot but again i havent encountered any shutdown either, tho i didnt record for long just few mins. hope this helps.

Thanks man that helps a lot.

May I know you guys are using Z5 or Z5 premium?

I didnt knew fb apps is such an issue on battery life, i kept fb, whatsapp, gmail, chrome(with lots tabs) running on background all the time. those are my main apps. mobile data and location never off, wifi on when in office. and i still can last a whole day with it. just waze which i felt it drain it faster but still acceptable than my prev phone, sometimes it's even enough till i go back home then charge. ofcourse keeping that powerbank ready is a good backup another app which i felt drain my battery is the music app LOL not sure why.

Z5 Premium.

Z5 Premium. Don't use flip case. It may trap the heat. I use it naked with both front and rear tempered glass on only. Enough to cover ady.. I can play GTA with max setting 1 hour no lag issue. Sometime I feel phone a bit warm then I take my phone go bath. Lol

Z5 Compact reporting in. Been using it for 2 months, no camera force close due to overheating.

Cant deny the best part where you can bring your phone into the shower without worrying.

my situation is just like your and as i said my current phone is TX, quite heaty even on sleep mode

Yeah and we are able to touch the screen even it's wet on screen. The best..

Thanks to SD810 wet touch algorithm. I did it once with Z3+ under the rain and find it pretty good. There's once I was browsing FB under the rain with my Z2 and was like, damn I should've get Z3+.

Imos is the best one, but take note about the pricing though, RM17x per piece.
Material used is gorilla glass, treated with oleophobic coating that last long.

Haha. I use unbranded. Around Rm15 each. Just use whatever that u can find the resources. Got protection better than none.

Don't get Z3+, I own Z3+ and it sucks like hell, the overheating issue is serious.

I knew about that. I only point out that the touch screen of the Z3+ that works flawless with plenty of water droplets

I use Nilkin... so far no issue.. also get free normal back film.
