Literally it only gets hot when I browse the forums on my phone. Uncomfortably hot in the left upper half. Any other sites it keeps cool. Anyone else?
 

You can install an ad blocker or use Tapatalk and that should stop your phone from getting hot and the battery drain. I mainly use Tapatalk for forums but for an ad blocker, I'm using Wipr and not having overheating/battery issues when browsing the website.

I’m using Wipr (having experienced the same heating issue too) and my iPad now runs cool.
