mfaif1tt9qnb.jpgI totally agree with the previous comments - there is a big problem with this phone's heat and ram management. My phone's CPU operates in the 35 - 60 degree Celsius range during casual use ( Facebook, Gmail etc.), and heats up to 80 degrees during intense gaming (or a benchmark test for this matter). Screenshot is attached. For your consideration Asus.
It's very hard to comment on your temperatures. I need to know specifically what you were doing right before you read the temperature, what your brightness is set to and what your room temperature is.
I can say that my current room temperature is 26 Celsius. When using Facebook at moderate brightness and scrolling slowly then I have a temperature of 35-40 Celsius.  But I can also reach 55 Celsius if I scroll like crazy with maximum brightness.
When I play PUBG with graphics set to HD and High, I reach around 54 Celsius and when graphics is set to HDR and Extreme, i can reach up to 65 Celsius.  
The CPU temp reading also depends on which app you're using to measure your temperatures as there are many cores and they do not all keep the same temperature.
What I can say is that ZenFone 6 doesn't throttle more than most flagship phones. There's nothing wrong (to my knowledge) with how warm it gets. There are some differences from other phones on how warm it feels in your hand and this is because of the flip cam design but this doesn't mean that the CPU is getting warmer than most other flagship phones under the same conditions.

Hi, I don't "scroll like crazy", rather  I'me being extremely cautious not to burn down the phone.   Currently the outdoor temperature is around 28 degree Celsius, and the only app that is currently runningvg8r7u2be5qk.jpg is Google Chrome. I've used the auto start manager to block all the other apps that may be using the phone's resources. The highest frontier that I can aim for in gaming with this phone is candy crush soda saga.

Well I just bought my self a $10 phone cooler fan which works wonders. The phone might not get more hot than other phones but the feel really makes me worry and hence this purchase has really made my life easier. No longer afraid to play ultra settings at extreme frame rates

do you think 65°c is safe? i guess with that temperature performance will go down and what's the temperature before the device is shutdown. i think people are worried about possible shutdown, performance issue, burning, etc...

65°c is perfectly safe for a CPU. Qualcomm and mobo manufacturers take heating under consideration. From my experience, anything lower than 80 degrees is relatively safe (except phone's getting hot). My previous galaxy s6 ran perfectly at 85 degress peak for almost three years. Mine doesn't get too hot at all. Reaches 65-70°C at maximum. Battery is a bigger problem as you can't really design Li-Ion to withstand more than 50°C without faster degradation.
