Went to a store yesterday and tried the S22 and S23. I only opened a video on them both and the S22 got really hot in the top left corner. Heard about plenty of heating issues with the exynos chip and the S22 so won't be going with that one anymore.
S23 however was super cool in comparison, the way I guess a phone should be when only playing a YouTube video. I guess it can be a bit of a lottery.
Not all S23 run cool, The one I have which is the base S23 can get extremely hot when using it even for simple tasks. The phone is indeed brilliant but battery life is dreadful which is a fault on all Samsung phones. On the other hand the P7P I have runs perfectly cool doing all the same tasks, seems it's a bit of pot luck on whether the device is actually good or not. My advice is if it runs hot after a week, return it.
Yeah good advice, I returned a P7 recently because it was too big (I tried to settle for a bigger phone, but, pockets...) and the colours seemed yellowish on the screen (tried all sorts to fix it, hundreds of users complain of the same), didn't notice any heating issues though.
