I recently bought a S20 FE 5g. While using camera for 5mins the phone is getting hot. The cpu temperature goes more than  60 degrees ( used apps like cpu monitor, dev info to measure cpu temperature). With normal usage of phone the cpu temperature is around 40 degrees which I feel is unusual as other phones I have used it is mostly 33 degrees. Also with infrared thermometer the temperature went upto 48 degrees for 5mins usage.

Is this a software issue or hardware issue like the SD865? Will this be fixed with an update?

But if temp is 60, no matter where. Its some serious defect.

Hi, the cpu temperature is 60 degrees and backside of the phone near camera module gets around 48 degrees ( measured with infrared thermometer) , they have graphite pads for heat dissipation which generally reduces the heat transfer in the phone, but nevertheless this phone has some thermal issues
