Hi everyone. Me too had the problem of heating on my Z2 when using the camera and surfing the net. Not only behind the phone becomes hot but also the screen. Any body had this problem too.

Thanks.

It was and Kaspersky Internet Security and Advanced Task Killer. But the warranty, well removed and rebuilt to factory settings. But the quality of the photographs have not changed and still camera heats up.

You should stop by your local Xperia Care, it might be a hardware issue.

The longer you use your phone the hotter it will get, it will get hot faster if you play games or have the screen on a lot.

Thank you uliwooly. I understood your points, but is it normal that the phone gets hot after a short time - 2 or3 minutes - of using the camera for example? Not only this but it will get extremely hot if I use for example the AR effects after 2 minutes. What I want to know is the following: Is it normal for the phone to get so so hot after this short period of time? Hop to find out the answer.

Thanks a lot.

It is normal if you are recording on 4K or using AR as it's quite demanding

This is sadly true some xperia Z2s (many of them) are getting so easily much more than other phones especially when using camera! thats SONY fault!!

@diecast

I understand your frustration on your particular issue

http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z2/touch-screen-oversensitivity-problem/m-p/994096

but this is regarding heat, the material that the Z family phones are made, make them feel that they get hotter than other phones that use plastic instead of glass. with that said, recording on 4K it's a quite demanding feature.

Thank you so much uliwooly. I understood that it's normal, and do all Z family phones get hot like Z2 , I mean Z - Z1 -Z3 - Z3 dual . Do they get hot so fast like Z2? Sorry if I'm asking too many questions for this thing .

Now I understood it's normal , but in fact it's annoying.

Thanks again.

My Z3 warms up if I use the camera for long time, use AR applications, record 4k, play games with heavy graphics, watch an HD movie, etc. Resorces will always emit heat, just as your PC or laptop, that's why they have cooling fans.

Also if you live in a hot weather country your phone will be more sensitive and will get hot faster.

Thank you Quester. You've said - My Z3 warms up if I use the camera for long time - using the phone for a long time cause the heat. That is normal, but do you feel that your phone gets hot after just 2 or 3 minutes of using the camera in an ordinary shooting. That is the thing which I want to know.

And thank you again.

Normal shooting with flash or in sunny environment will cause my phone to heat, I can't say it's totally normal but I can live with it. It only happened once that my camera shut down from excessive heat and that was in a very hot and sunny day (45 degrees celsius).

I'm living with it but it makes me feel annoyed . I hope that SONY could find a solution for this in the near future.

Thanks.
