I bought Samsung Galaxy M31 on 16th March and today is 1st April. And after 15days of general usage (just WhatsApp and couple of calls in a day) and I am facing over heating issues. Even after using camera it starts heating from the top of the front screen. I also updated the system and also did the reset. but still facing heating issue. Secondingly it says FAST CHARGING while charging but literally takes 3 hours to charge from 10% to 100%. This is utterly bullshit. And over heats even while charging.
As you new purchased this device so i suggested you some settings, if you want then do these all, it will improve battery, heating issues as well at certain limit after doing these all wait 1-2 days
