New iPhone 14 feels hot

Hi, I’ve only had the phone for 4 days but I’m noticing it feels quite warm when I’m using it. I use it for calls, emails and scrolling social media mainly. Should I be taking it to get assessed for a fault? I don’t feel my old iPhone ever got warm just from use. Cheers

iPhone 14, iOS 16

Heat is typically normal. The phone is designed to let heat from use, especially intensive apps and processes, escape thru the case. See If your iPhone or iPad gets too hot or too cold

Leave it a few days to do its housekeeping (calibration).
Leave it on charge, on Wi-Fi, all night every night so it does the housekeeping overnight.
