        I have a pixel 6a that I use a lot, and it only overheats if I leave it in the phone holder in my work truck when I park in the sun.

        What are you doing that causes the phone to work that hard?

          Doing literally anything on it south of the 37th parallel.

            I guess I should point out I live and work in coastal Georgia.

            So I dunno why I have such a different experience. I’m on my phone a lot calling people and using GPS with no overheating issues unless it’s in direct sunlight for too long.

              Yeah, we’ve gotten over 30°c and mine has never overheated
