iPhone 16e General usage heat?

[jntdroid]

This isn’t a huge issue, but in the months I’ve had a couple of 16e’s, I’ve noticed that certain activities that historically haven’t caused me to feel heat, are doing that. The main one is just general browsing in Safari (even on strong WiFi, and even basic sites that just have text to read). It’s not getting dangerously hot or anything like that. But 20 minutes of browsing heats it up similar to 20 minutes of streaming video on cellular.

Just curious if others have noticed. Again, it’s not horrible, it’s just more than I would expect given the activities causing it.

When I had one it didn't heat up...

One ended up going to a family member, so I got another one. I had that first one for about a month. But on that second one I couldn't make up my mind so I actually exchanged it for a different model, then exchanged "back" for it again a week later. So technically I've had three, but that second one didn't last long enough to really count.

I've had the third one now for a few months.
