[Mahid021]

when recodring video at 1080p the phone is getting heated to 35-40 degree celsius and this also happening while charing only.....is it normal ? plz reply.....

[Mahid021]

yes both the time it is same and in the idle time the temperature is 29-30 C but when recording video of only five minute the temparature goes to 38-40+ C and the full body get hot the display as well. It very uncomfortable to hold the phone. Also 10 minutes of listening to song the temperature also goes to 35-37 C.I found that the portion above the battery and below the camera is hotter than the battery so could it be cpu that is hot ? what do you think?What should i do now ?

These are good battery temperature. For example a Galaxy s2 or a Galaxy Nexus (Both dual core 1.2 ghz) can reach 50 (and above) degrees.

During normal use battery reaches 40 degrees even on my xperia L where CPU is clocked only at 1.0 ghz.

Video recording (expecially in HD or FHD) is very CPU dependent and heating up is normal.

What smartphone did you own before this Xperia SP?

Anyway in my opinion the overheating of your phone is normal. Your device works fine

You can check this review (at the bottom there is temperature test)

Just for some further information regarding the handsets operating temperatures:

• For optimum performance, the product should not be operated in temperatures below -10°C(+14°F) or above +45°C(+113°F).
• Do not expose the battery to temperatures above +60°C(+140°F).
• Charge the battery in temperatures between +5°C(+41°F) and +45°C(+113°F).

The temperatures listed above are environment temperatures, not device temperature.

My phone is getting heated up very often. I tried the way of removing the cover case and charging it completely and then using it. But then it keeps on overheating very often.

Kindly help asap.

Games which are there are : Candy Crush Saga
Apps open most of the time : Whatsapp, Facebook, Chrome.

If you are permanently connected to internet and many apps are in the background and you also use the phone,it will heat up,like any smartphone.
