If you're playing a game that doesn't support your current iPhone well (e.g. old iphone 6S, weak battery iphone etc), expect it to crash or lag a lot and gets very hot. Phone might even restart by itself to cool down from overheating.
Most dangerous is when you use an unbranded iphone charger or cable (those without any brand and sell for RM1-5 dollars - avoid please).. those can literally blow up your phone due to the cheap parts present in it. If possible use iPhone's official charger or a good branded powerbank.. cable a good branded one like Remax etc is good enough. Branded 3rd parties also want to protect their image.. so they are more trusted.. they're in the market for a long time already too.
thank you for your link. charging wise i always use the original cable and plug that come with the iPhone. it seldom heat up while charging, even it is, also just get a little warm.
but isn't that 8 plus supposedly no issue in handling or supporting most of the games since it using the latest and most powerful chip from Apple currently? is it still normal to get warm/hot? for my case really depends, sometimes it just get warm, sometimes get hot. but only happened when i play games. warm i not really worry about, but i just not sure the whether the "hot" is within the reasonable temperature or not.
edit: as i recall, previously my iPhone 6 doesn't heat up so quickly. but my ipad mini2 does. for the ipad even watch youtube also will get warm or sometimes heat up.
