Since turning it on for the first time I often notice overheating in the upper area under the cameras. It does this very often when it is empty or when I use heavy apps like Call of Duty mobile .. has anyone noticed something similar? It seems absurd to me that such a phone will overheat like this
Sorry to hear that your phone is overheating.
Except when installing the phone the first time, i did not have any problems with it heating up. I dont use have apps so can't help you with that ( most heavy app i use is prob Clash of clans haha)
Unfortunately, that is the 888. Only real solution is to decrease the settings on "heavy" games and take breaks.
I have the same issue. My sister and cousin have the phone also but neither is experiencing it. I don't play games or watch videos on the phone. I only use it for calls, messaging, and online shopping so there is no reason for it to happen. I called to get a replacement. Hopefully the new device will not have the same issue.
Oh perfect! So if I replace I resolve?

I don't know how anybody would expect this very compact phone to not get hot with intensive tasks. It shouldn't get hot with light usage, though. Also try using Samsung browser instead of chrome if it gets hot when browsing.
I noticed mine getting awful hot the other day while using Android Auto on my car stereo with it in my pocket in my shirt, got so hot I had to take my phone out my pocket and put it in my cup holder. I noticed it getting hot also while watching Youtube videos at the house also, it wasn't in my pocket against my body though so it wasnt really that big a deal! LOL!

This is correct. Let's just be happy Samsung didn't put the SD888+ in the phone. The SD888 already had thermal problems. Can only imagine the SD888 being hotter from being overclocked.
Its not overheating, its getting hot. Android OS will shut down and give a warning when overheating. If your not using a case you will notice a lot more than a previous phone with a case installed. Its a CPU and GPU that creates heat. Its normal to get hot during high intensive cpu/gpu use and or when charging. It also tends to get hot when setting up for 1st time and transferring data from an old device.

I think you may have missed the point trying to correct the wording. The 888 gets significantly hotter than even the previous 865+ performing the same tasks. The issue is that what used to be just a bit warm is now hot and one warm day will easily push that into overheating. The performance increase may not justify the difference, which is where a lot of people will have an issue.

Ive been using mine in 90* weather gaming, videos, etc... and have had the same warm/hot feeling I got with my s10+. I have yet to have overheating. I didnt see anyone mention the OS shutting down due to regular use and overheating but I could be mistaken. Being that I have been overclocking PC's, phones for 20 years the heat I am getting from my Flip 3 seems pretty normal.

I understand the point you are trying to make, but Android has not existed for 20 years. Anything before the G1 is irrelevant. That said, you also have to discard anything you used that wasn't Snapdragon, since Qualcomm and Mali (or others) are simply not the same thing.
Now that you are looking at a much less impressive list of past devices, you have to consider that you aren't actually overclocking and the 888 is currently capped. You also have to consider that the 888 does perform much more efficiently, so it may even seem cooler than an S10+ when doing the same basic tasks. After all, the 855 was known for getting hot and is now two generations back in terms of performance. When you notice the heat is when you run things the S10+ would struggle to handle.
The problem I was actually pointing out was comparing the 865+ and 888. The 865+ clocks higher than the 888, but the 888 runs significantly hotter. Running the same games on an 865+ and an 888 will yield higher temperature from the 888, but only marginal performance improvement. The question is what happens when you try to run the 888 at its full capabilities?

Again its hot but NOT overheating. Anyways where I messed up in replying here is I thought I was in the Fold thread and NOT Flip. LOL. The Fold with its bigger chassis probably handles the heat a lot better. My daughter has the Flip and has not mentioned that it gets hot, but I now want to play with it.
And a side note I have been doing mobile device repair since the iphone was released and have worked on every snapdragon phone pretty much ever made.

I never said it was overheating, either. I said it has a much higher potential to overheat and environmental temperature will have a greater impact on it.
I've also been repairing phones since long before the iPhone, so I apologize that those credentials don't have more weight.
In all honesty, this 888 is much tamer than some. Take a look at the ROG Phone 5. You can melt an igloo running YouTube with that.

Anyone had the LG G Flex 2 with the 810? That thing got hot just being on the homescreen.
The Flip3 is nowhere near that and a non-issue heat wise for me. Especially now that I have the strap case where I don't notice it at all.

I honestly think Samsung did some behind the scenes limitations on it. The ROG Phone 5 and Z Flip 3 are both the 888, but there is a much larger performance gap than just a few minor software optimizations.

Yes samsung limit big core and prime core even when gaming pubg , wild rift , mobile legend. I jist finish an hour game pubg and see the result of big core and prime core even when running demanding game. Samsung does not fully utilize big and prime core. Most of its task use small core. Big and prime deep sleep very deep. Gpu will not run over 500mhz
I have the same issue when using Android Auto with it. Overheats to the point that music starts stuttering and then AA just shuts off completely. T-Mobile is sending me a replacement but the lady at the store said her friend had the exact same issue. I don't game or do anything that would require the SD888 to go nuts.
i got mine to overheat after a long video call with usb power on a somewhat hot day, had to close camera and give it a sec to cool down.
honestly its not terrible, but it does heat up more than regular phones. during regular use its fine imo

So in talking with some computer friends I brought up the s4 and we discussed its power and all that jazz. A friend brought up the fact that it doesn't matter how much power it has, every computer is limited by its slowest part. So with the s4 having a huge processor with a small phone screen defeats the purpose of the huge processor. It made since and killed the conversation. I'll be hanging out with him again tonight. Anyone here want to help me debate for the opposing side? That the screen doesn't limit the phones power?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk 2
Actually, that "small screen" is 1080p, so the phone has to push out 2073600 pixels every time you use it. That itself puts a HUGE load on the processor. Also, the quad core processor of the S4, while powerful, is no where near the level that a using a 1080p screen wouldn't be a hassle at all. In fact, multiple people have noticed slight lag when using the phone.Also, since when is the screen an integral part of performance? Performance is dictated by ram, cpu, and gpu first and foremost. The screen would not affect performance at all, at least core performance. The only way a screen can affect performance is by bogging it down. In fact, if the S4 was so powerful that the screen was nothing in terms of cpu usage, than the phone would actually be able to do more, not less, as it would be able to handle advanced particle simulation in games and intense video and audio processing, on the level of of a low to mid range computer, which it obviously cannot.
Thank you vance09. This will help a lot. He is one of those friends who thinks he is right and keeps mentioning the same reasons. Its hilarious to prove him wrong.
Do you know what the CPU is clocked at in MHz?

It really wont matter about screen size or the chip in it. The hardware is limited by the software. The software is still not set up to take advantage of anything more then a dual core. So until It is. The phone will always be limited by the software it runs.
My phone is getting heated while playing games like Asphalt 8 my question is whether heating of note 3 exynos version for heavy games is normal and others are having similar experience.....i play asphalt 8 on recommended graphics setting which is at highest..... my phone heats to the point where i my hands start sweating and i feel like putting it down. Will it harm my device? I went to samsung service centre they just changed my motherboard but no change in heating..... i just want to know experience of other exynos version users......
thanks in advance......

This happens to all devices when playing heavy games. To be honest phones are not really made for long game playing. There is no proper cooling setup in phones and their never will be. So yes its normal.

Thanks...... Yes you are right.... i asked this question because the snapdragon version handles same game very well and generate far less heat than exynos version that i have..... i havent seen much of a complaint on Internet about snapdragon note 3 heating up...... i am just curious about how exynos note 3 users see their note 3 performing while gaming..... and is the heat generated very high and unbearable.......
To be on safe side there should be some temprature standards that how much is too much. You can install any temprature meter for this and check on the internet about limits.
Also n9005 variant generates less heat because its gpu is enhanced.

Way high. Anyone having issues is not making the right yes no questions about LGs location tracing service and the stupid McAfee bloatware install. I just owned pretty much everything with my scores. No need root.
No need disable cores.
SnapDragon 810 is fine. Users are stupid as usual.
Antutu is scoring over what iphone 6 should too... Over 47000 something. You have to remember unless you root and tweak this phone it is a dialed down snapdragon 810. You have to bring it back to full speed to get full speed benchmarks that would match and beat a galaxy s6. For whatever reason LG did that, it definitely does make it slower out of the box than the s6 in benchmarks. But after you de-crap your unrooted version. It runs plenty fast and not laggy.

The SD810 should be getting scores above 50,000 on Antutu and as for mopping the floors with everything the GS6 scores around 69,000. The 810 would score well over what my current benchmarks are, which is around 52,000 if there weren't heating issues.
If I let the cpu cool down to 20C I can get an antutu score of 58,000. I'm going to see if I can add a copper shim and thermal compound. It really made a big difference when I did that with my old galaxy nexus.

You own Snapdragon 810, 64-bit TOP Qualcomm processor. It's perfect with his on-paper specs, so let's try to make him perfect in real.
The only thing matters is the UI lagging. Do you really meet your friends and say "Yo, dude, my phone took 58k points in Antutu?" No, you say "dude, it's fast" or not fast.
It's G Flex 2 - it's alredy curve, stylish and sexy. It points attention to itself. So is there a huge difference between 58k or 48k points in Antutu? Does this really matter, when you like your phone?
If you really need that points - go and buy that awkward, terribly looking SGS6.
I'm on this board because I like to tweak with my phone. I enjoy pushing hardware and seeing what its capable of. I didn't really buy my LG Flex 2 to show off but I'm pretty sure most of us are here because we already like our phones.

I love my phone... Until it gets hot, starts going unbareably slow and I have to sit there holding the power button for 30 seconds for the phone to reboot because rebooting normally would take about 5 to 10 minutes due to throttling. The phone is gorgeous but runs far from it. "We" are looking for ways to push it so it doesn't have these problem. Going with the mentality that "oh it's qualcomms best so it's amazing" mentality is ignorant. No offense but it is :/... Until issue are fixed with it the 808 and 805 run better because of speed and reliability (less lag) I am also a member of XDA to push my device and make it better. So no I'm not happy with this half baked chip until we come up with a way to fully bring out it's potential and share it with the community.
That is really odd because somehow I'm not experiencing lag. No matter how hard I push my phone it never seems to lag. I have the AT&T version of this phone. Could it be possible that somehow the AT&T version is different? From what I've been reading I haven't heard any one with the AT&T version complain about lag. Even when I try to push my phone hard I never see it go past 37C. If I run benchmarks for a long time like Antutu four times in a row the highest I've seen is 47C and even then my phone doesn't lag at all. So I'm wondering what's different on the phones with users that experiencing that much lag.
They may have throttled down the A57s to 1.5ghz. They've been doing that with them to try to fix the heat issues
In my AT&T model my A57 cores run at 2ghz but at around 40c it disables two cores and drops them to 1.55ghz.
The att version comes with 3 gigs of ram instead of 2
Yes but that shouldn't cause such a dramatic performance difference.
Of course it can. Most people talk about they can factory reset their device and it runs smooth as butter. Sounds like the phone starts to chug when it is loaded down with user data and apps with background processes.
I guess it can depending on how much stuff is running in the background. I know on my Galaxy S4 with 2GB of ram it runs smooth with cm11 android 5.1 no matter how many things are open. Although it also doesn't have the bloatware that comes with an OEM device.

Definitely didn't buy it for gaming. The only gaming I do on my phone is maybe some brick breaker to pass time.
Looks more efficient than Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 so what's the big deal?
Blah, blah, blah, who really cares? I have the phone in hand and compared to the previous Pixel(s) I used the 7 Pro is a winner! FINALLY, Google made a good phone that does everything I need, or want, just fine! The SOC's from 5 years ago were more than enough for 99% of the population.

Again, it's outperforming others while still being demonstrably more efficient so I don't understand the gripe. Even the temps are better than anything that performed worse than it except for the chips using GOS.
I'm so sick of seeing Google get slammed for having a good product despite what they had to work with. It's not like Google can just switch fabs, their agreement with Samsung LSI covers all these components and fabrication.

I'm not slamming Google, I'm slamming Samsung fabs who have produced pretty awful SOCs for the past few years. Most of the Android SOCs are performing poorly because of this so saying Tensor is outperforming them doesn't mean much because they're *all* performing below par. When we get into TSMC SOCs next year and (hopefully) the 3nm Samsung node then we'll start to see Android phones improve again.

I doubt that it's going to be as good as you think it is. It's going to be more high benchmarks and then a crash back to reality. Google seems to have actually engineered this thing for sustained performance and I don't have any complaints about the performance so far.

Dont know if you've seen the Geekerwan
video but it explains all about power efficiency and how it isn't about high benchmarks and how Samsung fabs have produced pretty awful SOCs in terms of this. The 8+Gen 1 has improved the power efficiency massively over the 8 Gen 1 and that's all because of the TSMC manufacturing process. FWIW, there's rumours the 3nm Samsung is looking good so hopefully things will improve there but when youve got the OnePlus 7 Pro outperforming the latest flagships(as in the video) then you can see how badly things have went in the Android world lately.

Of course efficiency matters, people like the IPhone because the battery lasts forever. It also means the phone heats less/ thermal throttles less so performance is better. I'm not sure what you're trying to argue here, even Qualcomm moved away from Samsung fabs because of their low yields and poor production. Surely as Android users and paying top money for these products we should be demanding the best performance and manufacturing of the parts? Like I said, when a 3 or 4 year old phone is giving better performance and battery life than a £1300 phone today (s22u for eg) then we shouldn't be saying "oh it's fine".

Best performance and best efficiency aren't compatible. High performance parts sacrifice efficiency to get that performance. That's why a midrange phone can last days but a flagship can struggle to get through a single day.
There is no world where a 3 or 4 year old phone is actually outperforming a flagship of today unless you're talking about one that's been neutered by the manufacturer like Samsung and OnePlus do. Replace the stock ROM with a custom one and try again. Manufacturers keep nerfing performance because people whine about their phones being too warm.

Genshin Impact is the perfect game for testing GPU. I will never play this game but here you can see what you get with the Tensor G2.
https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1580618724511428609
And what you get is almost the chip from last year, which was already weak + in few weeks we will see the new Snapdragon 8 Gen2 which will smash the old one (and maybe even the A16).
Sure, you can lie to yourself and say something like "i dont need that" but the SoC is not powerful, not efficient and with the Exynos Modem you can forget about great battery life on mobile data, in late 2022.

Looks more than fast enough for me. Benchmark slags are sad f*****s. For me it's about everyday use, and if my Note 10 Plus still cuts it from that perspective, this certainly will. An extra 5 FPS on a game I'll never play means jack as far as I'm concerned.
On a side note it's good to see it is amongst the lowest for temperatures.

Genshin Impact is the perfect game for testing GPU. I will never play this game but here you can see what you get with the Tensor G2.
Sure, you can lie to yourself and say something like "i dont need that" but the SoC is not powerful, not efficient and with the Exynos Modem you can forget about great battery life on mobile data, in late 2022.

"here you can see what you can get with the Tensor G2"......in terms of gaming, sure.
but is that the be-all and end-all of what the potential of SoC has and can be? Can it not be used better and more efficiently in other ways better than the ones that are superior in gaming and FPS? I'm pretty sure Google's even stated that their chip is more tailored towards "A.I. powered abilities" and algorithms. And, again, I question how many people would be getting Pixel 7 Pro with gaming as their main focus and reason....

this kinda just shows how the tensor 2 chip is for gaming environment....not a.i. or software fluidity, right?

I couldn't care less about gaming on my phone
Hi everyone, please I plan to buy a galaxy s22 ultra, but most videos or youtubers talk about heating or overheating, advice before buying, exynos or snapdragon or which version, thank you in advance
I don't have any issues with overheating, never have.
Just look for your best deal between Samsung or your carrier with trade-ins.

thank you, look at the comments please
First week with this phone.
I don't have any kind of overheating.
On the other hand, battery is sort of dissapointing, it lasts the same as my older phones (mi 10, mi 9, honor 8, nexus 5). Around 6 hours of SOT give or take. And the charging is slower than mi 10/9.

Does that mean other than that everything is fine? I hesitate between honor magic4 pro and realme gt 2 pro because I like samsung but I don't really know
whait for s23 ultra with sd 8 gen 2
Wait for the S23u with 8gen2, the 8gen1 and exy2200 are both inefficient.
I've got around 7 of these phones and out of them 3 had severe lag.
128gb seems to be the worst, higher memory seem to perform better.
Unless you are getting a bargain I'd wait for s23 ultra

Why? S23 is around the corner. From the leaks it will be much better in power efficiency, specially if you are in EU and stuck with the Exynos chip which i think sucks. I read Snapdragon takes better images and is more efficient (even if i read they get overheated also)....but much of that is fixed in the S23 that uses a updated gen2 chip.
S22U is a great phone but i'm dissapointed with battery and image quality still.
Compared to my iPhone images are a hit and miss. Sometimes they are awesome but sometimes they are grainy or colors are off or just blurry.
And as said battery drain is pretty bad. Like overnight dropping 7-8% compared to 2-3% on iphone.
Same when i use it, i can literally see the battery go down...
1. Notification bar is looking like it is a theme made 10 years ago.
2. Lagging and stutters is very possible, depends on unit to unit.
3. Phone does overheat if you planning to use an app that is a heavy resources consuption or badly optimized.
4. Samsung's devices are overfilled with bloat-ware.
5. Battery efficiency is pretty bad.
6. A lot of S22U were sent back for a replacement due to multiple hardware issues, for example mine is restarting by it self when a phone call starts (not every time) but at least few times a month.
7. Edges are not usefull at all but rather annoying.
8. Stylus has terrible grip, very uncountable to hold.
9. Speaker is terrible too, if you planning to listen to a music at full volume, stop.
10. It has very annoying notifications that are not important at all and unable to deactivate, for example (Messenger is using your mobile data).
11. Fingerprint scanner is ok but could be better, sometimes I have to touch it 3 - 5 times to get it registered (depends on angle).
I've been struggling with stutters, lags as well as audio stutters for several months until a big update came up. Scrolling through UI was extremly jerky.
Personally I would never buy a samsung's device ever again but that is just me and I understand other may be completely satisfied.
For older devices Samsung is releasing updates that are slowing the devices down so people have to buy newer products regularly. For me this is just unacceptable. This is a verified info that you can search for too.

I think it's an SOC issue on the s22u both the 8gen1 and Exy2200 are fabbed by Samsung foundries and are poor(Samsung foundries 4nm node was awful with low yields). The zfold4 with TSMC 8+Gen1 is one of the smoothest and fastest phones I've used recently, even much better than the Pixel. I don't think the issue is OneUI. I expect the S23u with the TSMC 8gen2 will be blazing fast and buttery smooth.
Might not be relevant to you, but I by now *regrett* buying the Samsung S22 Ultra.
The reason being that (depending on where you buy your phone) the firmware for your region will disable a lot of features. E.g. for me it is impossible to somehow activate the eSIM support.
And I really tried all the tweaks that are out there.
But you only notice these things after you've purchased the phone, because nothing about this is written in the manuals.
So my advice: Stay away from Samung phones.
Honestly, the s22 Ultra was a trash offering, regardless of the chipset, of course Exynos is worse. I'm trading it in for the s23 Ultra (I'm stuck with Samsung due to the purchase of a Samsung watch) and hopefully it won't be disappointing this time around. But to what I said earlier do be careful of what wearables you buy and from what brand, Samsung has great wearables, but half the features and functions usually get limited to their phones/devices. Unfortunately I didn't realise this when I bought my Galaxy Watch 4, and so now I'm stuck for at least a few years till I swap out the wearable and then the phone brand itself, probably back to Xiaomi.
I have the S22 Ultra snapdragon, great phone but some minor annoyances
. Battery it's not poor but could be better for 5000mah
. Speakers could be a bit louder
. And camera is rubbish at capturing moving subjects it always comes out blurry
I am in the same bought boat as you and bit the bullet and bought the s22 ultra 256GB. It's been 3 days since I bought it and honestly I am really satisfied. I had the z fold4 before but I found it impractical, the s22 ultra has almost the same level of performance with no noticeable downgrade. I have the snapdragon variant and it does not overheat. Battery life is OK, but it's too early to judge as it is still learning my usage patterns.
Overall I recommend buying the s22 ultra even though s23 ultra is right around the corner. Yes, it will have an effecient CPU, but I do not expect much from a single generation leap. A real upgrade would be s24 ultra as it is expected that the entire design will change
Don't plan on upgrading my S22U to the S23U. However if I were in the market for a new phone I'd wait another month and get the S23U. No brainer IMHO.
i agree with most of the reviews here. this device does not worth it.
can't believe it's actually rated as a Ultra/premium device
For all of you counting the S23U to be the perfect phone...did they not told us that the S22U was the best of the best?
Like the SD8Gen2 will solve all your problems...
I have both the S21U and S22U with the Exynos chip and both are running fine, no overheating, no lags or stutters.
From what I have read so far is that Android 13 with One UI 5.0 has improved a lot on both the S21 and S22. I had no complaints on Android 12 and have no complaints on the latest software.
Battery life...I can't complain but then I don't have any of the social media apps on my phone which seems to be using a lot of battery.
We have little to no bloatware on the EU versions and even then this is a one time solution, delete the bloatware.
At the end of the day its ONLY a phone. There are far more important things in life than this.

Yes, year to year I read about unveiled best and a lot of better from year old flagship.
And after few months opinion/ reviews about disadvantages and even features which previous model had better. For example low durability frame S22 series, worse speaker quality compare to S20 series.

Actually yeah, it will solve a lot, the performance will actually be worth the price tag itself, which as a heavy user I actually do need, it'll solve a lot of battery drain thanks to not being an absolute power munching ****show chipset like the current exynos, oh and I'll actually be able to get decent and stable fps with graphics maxed without the phone turning into an oven. Now lets not forget other things like photography and other stuff like that s22 ultra was a flop either way, but exynos took the cherry on the top.
