it get hot extreamly fast specially playing hardcore game like for example -real boxing / wild blood etc


even casual game will still cause it hot , just slightly slower ...


well i believe your stop using for a while or a day works , in a way


but we dont pay the money to cope with the phone aint it ? specially when its selling at premium price, we expect premium product and performance isnt it ... sigh
