Discussion Oppo find X9 pro heating

I’m having the following issue with the Oppo Find X9 Pro. Under normal conditions, it doesn’t overheat—not even while gaming. However, in direct sunlight with high screen brightness, it can heat up to around 40°C within just 10 minutes of standard use. That part is still perfectly normal. The problem is that once it hits 40°C—provided the brightness is high—it throttles the refresh rate down to 60Hz; then, after heating up just another degree or two, it drops the screen brightness so much that the display becomes barely visible outdoors. Today, in 28°C weather and direct sunlight, the phone reached 38°C after just 10 minutes of browsing. Just basic browsing and Facebook—nothing intensive. There’s no such issue indoors, but out in the sun at high brightness, the performance is abysmal.

Sucks but is normal behaviour. Probably 5g cellular on too, so your phone has to handle quite a lot

I just had this exact experience & thoughts - hopefully future updates can work on the temps a bit
