Just received my iPhone 11 Pro and after a few minutes of light use, the back and sides heat up to where I can barely hold the phone. Any ideas?

I have read through all posts and want to offer my 2 cents
My iphone 11 pro was normal until I started using the keynote app. It heated up real fast to a point that it is uncomfortably hot (within 1 min). Whenever I switch to other apps, the phone starts to cool. If I switch keynote on, phone starts cooking again. That’s obviously very weird, then I found this thread.
So following the discussion, I made sure my iOS is up to date on 13.1.1. Then I checked my “battery” tab in the settings, 10 min of using keynote consumed 15% battery, while the whole day of using other apps only make up 85%. Keynote is essential to me in my job, so deleting it is not an option. I also didn’t want to “reset all settings”. Instead, I closed settings>general>background app refresh. That totally fixed the problem
To sum up, here is what you can do if your phone is heating up abnormally

New $1100 iPhones shouldn’t get so warm that they are uncomfortable to hold. That’s not normal.

The issue here is with developers.
Prerelease versions of iOS 13 have been available to developers explicitly so they could test with it for over three months now.
My iPhone 11 pro just got it 3 days ago, it immediately getting hot in 1 minutes while playing the Farm Heroes Saga. I used my 6s for 4years it didn’t have any problem, feel disappointed
Not in my case, mine heated up in my pocket just in stand by mode.
New replacement phone is getting warm on the back underneath the camera lens is where it starts.
I tried that. Didn't help.
True Tone, Night Shift, No filters etc. In macrumors many people have this issue.

Just picked up the new 11 Pro and as I was trying to complete the set up the phone started to get warm. Hope the battery doesn't blow up. Looking for a solution.
And what happened when you went to the Genius Bar.
I just got my iPhone 11 about 5 days ago. Tonight it is very hot!!! I don’t know how to stop it. I am not downloading or have any apps open. What could cause this?? Am I missing something???????
I will take your advice and let the battery run down completely and see if that solves the heating problem. Someone has also suggested a think case, that may not stop it but I won’t feel it as much.
I just picked up my iPhone 11 Pro and after restoring from iCloud it is seriously warm.. what is up? What is the definitive answer from Apple on this?
Same, upgraded from the XS and this pos is getting hot immediately.. I hate this!
Definitely not normal. Never happened with all the other IPhones, so why does it happen with this one?
