Right checked out RR3, the phone got "warm" but nothing worrying, felt the same as my Z1 when i play 8 Ball Pool on it. Sorry that is all I have to compare it too.

It still is a silly question because what alternative do you have (aside from SD 808 couple with 1080P on the Nexus 5X)?

Even Samsung's Exynos chip has reports of overheating, not as many or as badly, but still.

Really?

No performance loss during heat testing on S6's Exynos 7420 vs the Z5's throttled 810...

Same old story unfortunately. :( what a pity. Sony devices feel so lekker in the hand but are plagued by this flaw.

And you base your opinion on this happening with 2 devices (on which misuse has not been ruled out yet)? There are other incidents/complaints with other brands and models as well.

Fsck Mtn, vodacom and Sony. I'm still waiting for the stupid phone to become available in premium chrome. I'm actually contemplating getting a mate S or Samsung a7 now.

My mate is here from England and has the Z5 Premium. Man that is one beautiful phone... the screen and feel of it is amazing. It is massive though for me (coming from z3c) but i can see why its that pricey.
