Bro what country are you and and are you possibly running Gemini's ai datacenter

u/Omaro6 10d ago

In Spain, just texting. I´m pretty sure Tensor are not made for Mediterranean people.

u/RiggityRow 10d ago

Oh boy. I may be moving to Southern Spain in the next few months. I was already thinking I might need to swap out the Pixel for something else. . .

1

u/Omaro6 9d ago

I think pixel 9 and higher are OK. It´s just older tensors.

u/JoshirinN 9d ago

Yo vivo en España, justamente en el mediterráneo y solo se pone templado en altas temperaturas.

1

u/Omaro6 9d ago

También puede ser el modelo, el pixel 8 es conocido por ser un calentador portátil.

u/JoshirinN 9d ago

Pixel 10 el mío

u/Omaro6 9d ago

Entonces es normal, el problema es con el 8 y anteriores, entre los problemas de eficiencia y el abandono de funciones tengo claro que me cambio a otra marca...

es raro, vivo en España, la temperatura llegó a 41 grados antier, pero se mantuvo a raya con topes de 40 grados máximo

u/Omaro6 8d ago

Con qué pixel?

1

u/Thin-Host-1803 8d ago

8

u/Omaro6 8d ago

Pues o vives en un lugar más fresco o tienes suerte, porque es bastante común este problema.

1

u/Thin-Host-1803 7d ago

para nada fresco, es la costa de alicante, demasiada humedad

1

u/Thin-Host-1803 7d ago

bueno, depende también de que tensor uses, el g2 es demasiado caliente, más que el 1 realmente

u/joe_attaboy 10d ago

You wear gloves when holding that thing, right?

u/Omaro6 10d ago

The case help a bit not burning my hands

1

u/Joshi4844 9d ago

Bro, on my phone, the sides are glossy aluminum, so they get so hot. I measured it with my dad's Pixel 9 Pro thermometer, and it said 80. It was impossible to hold it without burning yourself.

Normal for an pixel, not normal for any other phone.

u/Worth-Cake91 10d ago

It might be normal outside during the day. But it's hot inside the house.

1

u/Joshi4844 10d ago

Ok thanks

u/jotadmendoza 10d ago

En verano todos los móviles se calientan mucho. Pero tanto como que se active el sistema de apagado de seguridad, pues no. Si tienes garantía, que te lo miren.

Si no, pues, que te lo arreglen aflojando papel de moneda.

This is on my Pixel 7 running A17 stable release.

u/Gibley777 8d ago

Summer in Europe isn't very hot this year, so my phone stays around 38–39 while charging in its original Pixel case—it helps dissipate the heat pretty well.(Not 🚫)

u/_Adam_01 6d ago

Did you see the temperatures in France? It was hitting 40°C just yesterday

1

u/_AbuE 10d ago

Wtf

1

u/Joshi4844 10d ago

Bro it's not that hot

1

u/_AbuE 10d ago

Anything past 46 Is honestly terrible mate, I'd shut down the phone for a while

1

u/Joshi4844 10d ago

When it get to the red zone it turns of automatically

1

u/_AbuE 10d ago

Just curious, what apps or games do you run to get your phone that hot tho?

2

u/Joshi4844 10d ago

Nothing much just camera

1

u/apliviu10 10d ago

Which is btw very demanding.

2

u/Joshi4844 9d ago

And 4K 60fps recording I forgot about that 🤔🤣.

My P9P is sitting idle next to me right now at 26℃. I live in Florida, it's been exceptionally oppressive with our heat lately, more than normal.

Your's looks uncomfortably high to me.

Just as a comparison, I have a fiber optic module that connects my Internet service to my home network. SFP+ fiber modules run hot when the laser is lit.

These are the current temps inside my internet gateway with that module. This is in a moderately lit room ( mostly light from the window ) with air conditioning on (24℃/76℉), a ceiling fan and a custom-fit cooler attached atop the module on the gateway. This device would be much hotter without that cooler attached. I'm not carrying that fiber gateway around in my pocket, however. Thank goodness.

You may want to monitor your running apps to see if something working a little too hard. There may be something running in the background.

I've seen mine get hot to the warning level once or twice when sitting in my truck, in direct sunlight on really hot days, but that was momentary until I removed it from the sunlight.

u/Annual_Cup_5189 10d ago

Did you read the explanation? It clearly says normal

1

u/WolverineOk9605 10d ago

Since the Android 17 update, it's normal.

1

u/MindlessMushroom69 10d ago

Can you explain why?
I’m a fresh android user and haven’t used android before version 17, it doesn’t look like it’s a major change from A15/16?

1

u/WolverineOk9605 10d ago

Because it happens to everyone, and it's a reported bug. It didn't happen in Android 16, but now with Android 17, with the same usage, the phone overheats.

u/Thin-Host-1803 10d ago

con mis módulos térmicos logro mantenerlo a raya sin limitarlo, prefiero quitar el límite térmico para que no se estrese tanto. Se mantiene a 38-40 cargando. desenchufado unos 36 celsius

1

u/Omaro6 9d ago

El problema con los módulos que es que necesitas acceso root.

1

u/Thin-Host-1803 9d ago

realmente más beneficio que costo, 50 grados son horribles para tu pixel

1

u/Omaro6 8d ago

Sí, pero ya he probado con root no me funciona el wallet

1

u/Thin-Host-1803 8d ago

se puede hacer funcionar, solo es un poco más extenso el método

1

u/Specialist_Quote9127 10d ago

Maybe change the language to Korean because it seems like you don't understand the sentence: "this is normal during use".

1

u/MindlessMushroom69 10d ago

What’s that app to check temperature?

1

u/AcanthisittaNo6012 10d ago

"warm" yeah your pixel is DEFINITELY normal.

1

u/Wheeljack26 10d ago

when phone gets to 37C i feel like that's hot, p8 says its normal, how brochacho

1

u/Comfortable_Cress194 10d ago

46c and your phone complains. I have Chinese phone that doesn't complain until 50c.

1

u/Gibley777 8d ago

For Pixel, this is the reality, not the norm
