my new iPhone 12 gets hot when I’m using it & charging it. Is that normal?

Your iPhone 12 will get warm as it charges. It may even get hot at times depending on ambient conditions and the level of charge applied. All this is normal. If your iPhone gets too hot to operate then it will shut down as as a safety precaution. If it has not shut down then it is not overheating and operating / charging normally.

If your iPhone 12 gets too hot to touch then you can have it examined at the Apple Store or at an Authorized Service Center and take advantage of the 1YR Limited Warranty from Apple.
