132.8° and 109.4° in Fahrenheit for anyone wondering.

Ehh, not that scary as far as CPU temps go.

Not sure on the battery though.

76C° gang!

95°C gang! 🥲 (AMD Ryzen 7000 series chipset)

computer CPUs are disqualified! You don't hold them with your hands.

Pathetic, I always use natural finger based RAM cooling

My brother in Christ. Get you an AIO water cooler. My 5900X was running at 95C till I got one 🤪

I do have one, a 360mm one. With crazy thermal paste. Then again, it doesn't get all the way to 95°C anymore, only when I compile something.

My Ryzen 3700X gets warmer than I'd like it to do, despite living under a beefy custom waterloop. It has to do with the heat transfer from the dies to the heat spreader and the thermal density of the little chiplets. I assume it's just the same with the more recent generations, you just cannot cool them like you used to with the old school monolithic designs.

If you are technical enough you can use an Xposed module to prevent that. Like one that reduces the intake of energy while charging. Some ROMs also offer that built-in.

Try to see what your charger is. Maybe your phone is using "fast charging" which might make it charge faster but it will definitely get hotter. A charger that is compatible with your phone and without fast-charging capabilities might help your phone not be as hot.

Lastly, and this is less about the energy part and more about safety, make sure if you charge it unatended that it is away from anything flammable. While there is a very small change something like that would ever happen I wouldn't take the risk.

Something I forgot, if you are brave enough, replace the thermal paste with a good quality one. Recently I did it and since then I have seen a huge difference. Just make sure to disassemble everything so you can access the CPU and the radiator.

which OS?

I'm a sane person, so a Huawei with Android. I'm not saying Huawei is good, but most definitely better than Apple.
