iPad Air 2 uncomfortable hot to hold

[Newtons Apple]

By using the iPad casing, the heat is transferred to the user's hands. This means an increase in body temperature. As result, the user will spend less resources on heating up their homes. The final result is therefore decreased resource consumption.

Apple really cares about the environment.

Yep, this means the iPad Air 2 will be approved by the EPA!

Maybe it was the same for the Air but its getting uncomfortable to hold it now after an hour with apps installing and use, hot on the right side

Here we go again.

At 0.07lbs lighter, I don't think it's much of an improvement.

I think the weight balance is a bit better with the thinner design.

I am haveing the same heat problem on my iPad Air 2.

Thinking of taking it back to the place I bought the iPad and get it checked out and see if there anything that is causing my iPad Air 2 to heat up.

My iPad gets very hot when playing high graphics demanding games like Asphalt 8, Gangster Vegas, Beach Buggy Racing, etc.

Nothing wrong with your Air 2. Graphic intensive games will always heat up the iPad. It has no fans and the case is the only way it can radiate the heat. It is normal.

I honestly thought he was being sarcastic, lol

I think sometimes people expect way too much from these devices, it's partly Apples fault for their great marketing, but people have to be reasonable, what can one expect with such a thin device with no fans, and components so close to each other.
