Check background app usage that mybe cause your phone burning, so far so good here

Did check the apps usage, nothing abnormal.
I put most of the apps to sleeping and I think it help a bit.

QUOTE(yayiyu99 @ Feb 3 2021, 01:10 PM)
Yes it is hotter due to the higher refresh rate at 120Hz and also higher resolution at 2K. Please test it at 60hz refresh rate & Full HD if it cooler.
*
haha, tried use FHD and 60hz, and already used to 120 hz so hard go back to 60hz mode.
Thanks for advice and I felt it cooler bit in 60hz FHD.

Dont tell me this .... I plan to buy s21u now ... This is bad news if it is getting hot.. I hate my n20u always warm or hot ..........
*
So far no much ppl complaining the phone getting hot in normal use, except gaming and using camera.
Probably using a phone case better, now I didn't use phone case so my hand direct contact on phone ,can felt the heat on metal phone frame quite warm.

Mine reached 40+ c during gaming. I still hold the phone like normal while gaming with no case. Tahan only the heat. Sometimes while I extreme gaming I feel like my phone giving out steam from behind, very hot. My Ultra still handles the heat better than my S10 plus, so far very impressed with the performance I am getting.
*
I use CPU monitor app to check temperature, normal usage CPU about 36-40'c, battery around 35-37'c.
No yet check the temperature while gaming/taking photo, but i guess can go up to 45 easily

Its an exynos thing haha

If you try snapdragon cool as ice at every tasks

I don't like malaysia samsung exynos also. lol.gif
My Note8 is HK set with snapdragon, quite cooling for normal use.
But this time SD888 overheating issue is really bad, performance exynos 2100 not too far from SD888 so I just give it a try.

Could be production not ramping up as it was in pre-Covid period or could be people buying whatever little stocks that they have due to the endless lock down.

Either way it's a good phone. The screen is really good and crisp and I use it more often than my iPhone 12 Pro Max.

On another note, the Official Leather Case feels less 'refined' than the Apple ones. It's slippery and hard to the touch.
*
Actually production is already ramping up, just possible got difficulties in shipping, material supplier problem (due to Covid) or wrong estimation on the number of initial sales (maybe they thought that due to Covid not many people buying).

Hi all, anyone feel the s21Ultra is pretty warm after few minutes use?

My normal usage like web browsing, social apps(fb,whatsapp), shopee, watching youtube, all causing my s21ultra feel quite warm and it's uncomfortable to hold it long. is that normal?

Ofcoz, using camera and gaming make my device burning.

coming from note 8, and my note 8 only get hot when gaming, normal use quite cool. I suspect I got the defect unit sad.gif

Update with some screen capture with CPU monitor app,

idle : CPU 33'c Bat 32'c (cool)
after few mins normal use : CPU 41'c Bat 37'c (quite warm to hold)
few mins camera : CPU 44'c Bat 40'c (phone is burning)

my normal use referring web browsing, FB/IG.

Pretty sure it's the Exynos that has improved given it's a 5nm chipset now. Corporate purchase offers are out for the S21 series

S21 - 2999
S21+ - 3499
S21 Ultra - 4299

Hopefully prices will go down a bit more before I'm tempted smile.gif

If they cut out all these EPP stuff, and give general consumers this price. Definitely can better compete in the market and sell a lot more. Basic economics, S21 series are luxury goods, and are highly price elastic.

However, Samsung Malaysia greedy and want to profit a lot.

did you freshly install from google play or migrate from other phone?

if migrate from other phone might have this problem.

i face this problem when migrate to s21ultra ( tng app, starbucks app, setel app)

uninstall the problem app from phone then reinstall it from google play store

Thanks for your reply, just wanna check if S21 signal would be better as with my experiences, the signal strength and quality is very unpleasant, the signal will hang or stuck. hmm perhaps I should consider first before getting myself an unit.
