Honestly, WhatsApp and YouTube seem to have the worst optimization on One UI.

Just 15 minutes of WhatsApp video calling can heat the phone uncomfortably.

Even watching a YouTube movie for some time can cause noticeable heating.


Samsung has never acknowledged these long-standing issues.
I’ve used OnePlus, Vivo, and Xiaomi for years – never faced this kind of heating during WhatsApp calls or YouTube playback on those devices.

It’s clearly not about the apps themselves — it’s something with One UI optimization. Samsung really needs to fix this instead of brushing it off.
