My iPhone 6s gets hot while syncing

Just picked up the iPhone 6s today, and while setting it up (restoring from iTunes backup), the phone get super hot and uncomfortable to hold while it's syncing. It cools down after, but anytime I'm syncing it gets hot.


Any ideas why this is happening?

iPhone 6s, iOS 9.0.1
