Hello,
Is it normal for a new IPhone 5 to get overheated when using for 10mins 3G in searching something over Internet, watching a video on you tube or anything else that uses 3g? What could I do? Thanks
iPhone 5, iOS 6.1.3
Any iPhone will get heated while using 3G. This is due to higher data rates being used.
So hot that you cannot even hold it?
is not normal! you better call apple care or go to the store to check it out,
Excessive heating is not normal. Take a Genius Bar appointment.
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
If the issue is still not resolved, then take it to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.
