ipad air 5 overheating

I have an iPad Air 5 that’s 3 weeks old just noticed it’s quite hot during use, is this right ? Haven’t noticed it with previous iPads.

It is not unusual for an iPad to become warm when being used - more so when using some types of iPad case. High screen brightness and/or CPU intensive Apps will also create more heat.


The key point is that whilst your iPad may become very warm in normal use, the iPad should not become uncomfortably hot to handle. If your iPad is becoming too hot to hold, you should take your iPad along to the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store - where the technicians can examine and test your iPad for faults.
