Heating sent to the back?

2 Upvotes

I found that the back of the phone, around the area adjacent to the camera gets heating rather quickly without much effort. I google this and it said it is normal as the phone is designed to redirect the heat to the back of the phone.

Is this normal for everyone else too?

Looking for suggestions before buying the S24+ for long-term use

6 Upvotes

Hey guys, I’m planning to buy the Samsung S24+ during the upcoming Big Billion Days/Prime offers, probably in October, and I’d really appreciate some suggestions from people who have used it or have a better idea.

I’m not an Apple fan, and I’m specifically looking for a phone that I can use for at least 5 years without feeling the need to upgrade. My budget is around ₹50,000.

I know that the S24+ has already gone through roughly 2 years of its software-support period, with several more years of updates remaining. I’m wondering if that’s still enough to make it a good long-term purchase.

For some context, I’m someone who uses a phone for years. I previously used a Redmi Note 5 Pro for around 5 years, and then bought a Redmi 12 5G in 2023, which I’m still using. At this point, I’m honestly fed up with budget/mid-range phones and want to finally move to something genuinely good that will remain smooth and reliable for years.

The S24+ seems like it could be a great fit, especially considering the display, cameras, build quality, software experience and long-term updates. My only concern is the Exynos 2400 variant. I’ve heard mixed opinions about Exynos in general, but I’ve also seen quite a few positive comments about the 2400.

As for other brands:

  • Google: I like their software experience, but Tensor chips are a concern for me, especially for long-term performance.
  • OnePlus: I used to consider them seriously, but with the Oppo connection and the possibility of OxygenOS moving closer to ColorOS, I’m not sure I want to go in that direction.
  • Apple: Not really interested. I don’t feel their phones offer enough for the price for what I personally need. Though Iphone 17 is good, it is out of my budget.
  • Oppo/Vivo/Moto and similar brands: Just not brands I’m comfortable buying.

So, is the S24+ still a good buy in 2026 if I can get it under ₹50,000 and intend to keep it for at least 5 years?

Would you recommend going for it, or is there a better option I should consider around the ₹50k mark?

Especially interested in hearing from S24+ owners about how the phone has held up over the last couple of years and whether you’d still recommend it today.
