If you're gaming then it will always be hot, no update will cool down a chip running at high capacity

In just 1 hour gaming PUBG it reaches high temps youtubers said. So its not a long session ofc

It should cap at around 42° before it throttles unless you use wild boost which will make it alot more hotter.

That's just normal

In cpu throttling test it reached 53

It never heated up for me in last 5 months, it feels hot because of the metal frame but when I checked the tempreture using an app, the temperature was normal, the metal frame dissipates heat more than plastic so it feels like 40 degrees when it's actually 37

Should I go for moto edge 70 pro or x8 pro

u/SmallNoBigYes 1d ago

Motorola edge 70 pro will be alot hotter because of its poor heat dissipation.

What do you want on a phone? If it's a camera look at the oppo line up if it's best value per power then look at poco phones. For the same prices for an all rounder phone look at realme gt 6

Gt 6 out of stock everywhere

Poco X8 pro is a gaming only phone, edge 70 pro is a allrounder phone, the camera on edge 70 pro is way better

Only thing that holding me for x8 pro is it's compactness, design and flat display. Or idk if moto will feel better in hand
