You are both wrong It's spelt "processor".

 

[mercurial]

They use heat sinks, by the way.

Heat-sinks and they run on much lower voltage so they don't get as hot as a PC Processor.

And don't call me Shirley

 

[upup]

would you know what voltage. pc's use 5 volts. Is that correct.
So its just a heatsink [metal] or are there other stuff involve as well.

 

[isie]

educated guess under 1.2 volts

Passive cooling via heatsinks.

Your hand cools it And it heats your hand... that's why it feels hot

 

[MyWorld]

Hmmm, watercooling for our phones... might just work...


It does get hot, when I use my GPS for extended periods I have had occasions when either the GPS app crashes or the phone freezes/reboots.
