Razer wasn't kidding when they said that the heat dissipation in this phone is borrowed from their gaming laptop division. This thing can get a little warm but is a far cry from all of the other phones that I have felt and used. Good work Razer. I benchmark like crazy and have not seen it throttle ever.
With the screen at 3/4 brightness and playing Titanfall Assault, the phone gets pretty warm. Which isn't an issue hwoever I notice the touchscreen starts to be less accurate.
Can't say it's been hot, not even sure I can say it's been warm. This is with using the razer rugged case, which is like 2-3mm thick so I think I would probably feel it if it became hotter.
Temps are good when verifying via CPUZ.
Heat dissipation is through the aluminum case itself and as such can get warmer than feels comfortable during heavy use.
When you play graphically heavy games for very long (examples 2 hours on RoS: Rules Of Survival), the phone heats up but its quite slow. Dissipates faster than other flagship phones though
Mine got way too hot too quickly.

Rippu. Try limiting your graphical use. The phone really puts emphasis more into the games and actually pushes your phone to the limits.
I've been doing hours of heavy gaming with MC5 while charging. This phone is slow to heat up, and stays relatively cool. I'm also using a case.

Done stress test using app and in 10 minutes phone top half, but top half of the front screen heated most
Overall use for the last 3 days phone didn't manage to get hot. And just played around 30-40 minutes of NFS No Limits resulting again in almost no noticeable difference in heat.
Used a couple of days.
During normal use didn't notice it getting any warmer. Same goes for some not so demanding games.
With some more hardcore gaming I can maybe feel a warmer spot when I look for it.
Will update after I run a stress test for funsies and do a longer gaming session.
Overall, awesome imo!
edit: While gaming for longer time, Less demanding games like clash royale and so on do not heat up the phone at all. Playing Hearthstone and PUBG also didn't notice any significant heat-up. It all depends on how the game is optimized, overall good games even these more demanding won't heat up the phone much. I tested some early access game, it heat up a lot and drained battery very quickly, the phone heated up in the top part near the camera.
My one does tend to get fairly warm but that's about it.

My P20 Pro gets VERY warm even without gaming under heavy screen usage. Lightroom, google photos, email, hangouts... I then put it in my pants pocket and could feel the heat noticeably till it cooled down.
My p20 pro is still pretty cold as it hasn't arrived yet
I've been surprised at the lack of heat!
Weird. Mine is fine. Something sucking up cpu time in the background maybe?
Mine gets quite warm even after light use (especially in the upper left corner).
Does the same happen to you? Is it normal?

Hi, same thing happens to me, albeit after a bit longer/more demanding use.
I've noticed when playing PUBG only, after the latest update that gives the game suite and some sec updates i think, the phone becomes warm, and then the heat from the battery/cpu interferes with the touchscreen and exactly where my finger is to move in pubg, its the warmest.
Thus it stops registering my finger and i quit moving in the game, wouldn't notice this on daily use of course, but i think it is a huge issue. Not because i died multiple times due to that in the game, but as it is a new and kindof premium phone, this shouldn't happen at all and was working perfectly for 2 months before that.
I've even installed an app to measure the temperature and it goes up to about 49 degrees celsius.
Any ideas?
Don't have any issue. Was using iPhone 6 and it was literally burning while am playing any game.
This device is far from getting warm compared to iPhone 6 and 7.
I'd say the P20 Pro is average when it comes to heat during use. It will never get uncomfortably hot, but can get fairly warm when gaming.

My phone actually heating up significantly during the initial setup...which is something that I have never experienced before. However, my former phone mysteriously began doing that lately, and dropping data connections. I have since swapped to a new SIM card, as I feel that it might have been the main cause of the problem.
Updates to come later.
First day of ownership I was a little scared of the heating. I always keep screen on 100% brightness. It got decently hot from excessive use(specifically when I was playing PUBG to check out graphics/performance). Since then, nothing. It gets warm during heavy use but it hasn't hit any uncomfortable levels. Maybe that was just a one day thing. I have since put a case on the phone which helps dissipate the heat. I know alot of users complained about the heat with this phone, my assumption is since it is so thin, there isn't any room for air to circulate inside the phone to cool it off, the battery is probably touching straight onto the board and screen. I remember replacing a battery on a moto x pure and the shape of the battery(Looked like this \_/ but more of a 10 degree angle) created a gap which allowed it to cool. The new battery which was flat now touches the board and it causes the phone to heat up more. So I would blame the thinness of the LG G7 for it's heating. I would rate it 4/5 because even though it doesn't get burning hot, it does warm up more than my previous phones(except the htc 10)
The heat management of the internals as well as CPU is superb. On a fine day of temps 30*C, the minimum temps are 27*C and max 36*C on a normal usage. I hope in 3 years time, the battery shouldn't degrade fast like it's predecessors. I hope the battery capacity should stay 3000 mAh in very long term usage. The old phones would feels hot, therefore the battery capacity had reduced.
I don't really play games on phones (I have a PC and PS4 for that) but it does heat up when quick charging wirelessly. Nothing alarming but noticeable.
It's gets warm, but not as bad as the previous G series.

Without gaming, intensive usage produces no heat! I didn't game soooo, maybe it wont either! xD

Good to hear, usually most phones I have used, when browsing the web for a while, the phone heats up.

The processor is optimized well. The device gets warm with heavy multi tasking but not hot. Only time it gets above 42 degrees at the back is if you play PUBG at HD and Extreme FPS with the case on!
Then again, the phone is limited to Medium and Balanced for optimization reasons!
I played pubg for 20-30 minutes with adaptive brightness and it just got little warm only
I used 3 to 4 models of Moto compared to them heat is very less. Some times it heat little bit. Noting to worry .

Got the t-mobile version about a week now & I've been noticing it runs warm even when just sitting on the table no charging involved. I've disabled most settings I don't use.
Anyone else running warm??
According to gsmarena
'We should also note that even after extensive benchmark testing, the phone didn't get hot at all. Only the side frame, which is made of metal, tends to get warm but that's normal given the horsepower under the hood. We found the phone to be one of "coolest" ones around with a high-performance SoC.'
Concerned if that isn't true as I'm looking at this phone when the price drops.
Gets hot with GPS and games. Not sure if this is T-Mobile model specific.
I've also got the US T-Mobile version and it seems to get hot/warm using Bluetooth and playing music for roughly 45 mins not if a particular setting causes it or the case I'm using.
Due to this the phone gets a little laggy but cools down once Bluetooth is off.
Very cool surface temps, no different than the N10+ nor 7 Pro in this regard. CPU looks fine. ATT model.
