over heating and further questions

hi guys,  i bought xperia z5 dual. the phone looks great and features are awesome on paper. but i spend half a lakh only to buy a showpiece.

the phone heats up like crazy. z5 has 3gb ram which is usefull only for call recieving and sending some text msges. i cant even start a basic game, it heats up like crazy. it has amazing camera features, again can click 1 or 2 pics. the phone just heats up.

i mean its redicilous that a phone heats up so much tat u cant even touch it.

i have been using sony phones for past 10yrs... and its really disappointing to have heating machine for 50k.

i would request the concern authorities to look into it and find the solution if not i will escalate this issue to another level. 

ITS REALLY DIASPPOINTING

I'm sorry to hear that but I have a Z Z1 and now the Z5 and Z5P and I've been using a Z3 as well and they have not bent, a phone can't bent on its own.

My Z5 overheated so much that it has bent just like the Z1 and Z3 but the screen didnt break so was still able to use it now have sent it to Sony and there denying the problem yet again I have a website started to make a class action against them and there horrible nasty staff.

If yiu have delt with these people and have got no where then message me for my site details, I have contacted watchdog so if we can all be in one place it is easier to see just how many peoplke this company has sold its dodgy goods too.

True it wont bend on its own but when metals get very hot they lose their strength & only a small fraction of pressure is required to bend them. Especially a lightweight thin phone casing.

Hi, people. Has it problem with this? I've got z3+ and I am very disappointed at Sony. Overheating and switch off.

Z5, overheating, random restarts, phone is totally useless. Compared to my 3,5- years old iPhone Z5 is a joke.

I am Anil Chindani from India. I love Sony smart phones and after using Z2, I got the latest Z5 compact from Dubai. I enjoyed using Z2. However in the Zz5 compact, the phone heats a lot and the battery drains fast. I realised that being in India and having purchased the phone in Dubai, I cannot get the phone serviced here. Have others faced similar problems with the Sony Z5 compact? How did you manage to resolve?

Mine took a while to settle and start to behave. At the beginning it was very hot during charging.

Bought a Z5 compact a few weeks ago, it seems the phone gets hot when programs are running, even if they are only running in the background, once i press the lower right menu-button ("go back" "home" and "program list" buttons) and shut them all down the temperature goes down but if I don't it's veeeery hot..
