Check out the quality you got from it and you'll forget all the heating...
Its a compact phone and heavy load is on the device when using camera for long time its normal

Just with one minute of video recording is causing heating, which I think I not a long time

The S23 heating up while using the camera can be concerning. Here are some possible explanations and troubleshooting steps:

Possible Causes
1. *Intensive processing*: The camera app requires significant processing power, which can generate heat.
2. *High-resolution video recording*: Recording high-resolution videos, especially in 8K or 4K, can cause the phone to heat up.
3. *Camera app bugs*: Software issues or bugs within the camera app might contribute to overheating.
4. *Hardware limitations*: The phone's hardware, such as the processor or battery, might be struggling to handle demanding camera tasks.

Troubleshooting Steps
1. *Close other resource-intensive apps*: Ensure no other apps are running in the background, consuming system resources.
2. *Disable unnecessary camera features*: Turn off features like HDR, 8K video recording, or tracking autofocus to reduce processing demands.
3. *Use a lower resolution or frame rate*: Try recording videos at a lower resolution (e.g., 1080p instead of 4K) or frame rate (e.g., 30fps instead of 60fps).
4. *Take regular breaks*: Give your phone a break every 10-15 minutes to allow it to cool down.
5. *Check for software updates*: Ensure your phone is running the latest software version, as updates often address bug fixes and performance improvements.
6. *Clear camera app cache and data*: Go to Settings > Apps > Camera > Storage > Clear cache and Clear data.
7. *Consider a camera app alternative*: Try using a different camera app, like Google Camera or Open Camera, to see if the issue persists.

Additional Tips
1. *Keep your phone's software and apps up-to-date*.
2. *Avoid using your phone in extreme temperatures*.
3. *Use a phone case that allows for good airflow*.

If the issue persists, consider visiting a Samsung authorized service center or contacting Samsung support for further assistance.

Is it shutting down the camera due to heating ? If no, then continue using it. Nothing will happen.

[anilysm]

No, it's not shutting down

Actual battery is small... camera use extrame battery....and background apps running these things may cause battery drain and heating....so try minimize background data processing of other apps.....keep them sleep or uninstall them if possible it will help to resolve your problem😃😃😃
