Zenfone 6 heating issue using camera

Dr__Allwyn_Vinc

I bought my mobile just last month and in just one month of usage I'm facing this issue. Just 2 minutes of video recording makes right side (back panel + screen) of mobile to get crazy hot. While taking photos also it gets pretty hot.Now this kind of problem should not occur as it's a flagship phone. In normal usage other than camera, no heating is experienced by me.
Please let me know if this issue is only limited when using camera or not ? I don't play games, so can't say if it is also present during playing games as well. Please comment if anyone facing similar issue like me with their Zenfone 6.

Actually problem is in Snapdragon 855 Image signal processor, it pulls way more power from battery and that's the reason it gets heated fast. We don't have to worry as every Snapdragon 855 device is behaving like this in terms of camera. I compared it with my friends Redmi K20 Pro and results were same, both get heated while using camera . Also OnePlus 7 users are facing this issue. We have to accept it and keep using our mobile rather than worrying

My HUAWEI Nova 5T also heats up when I am using its camera, but it has Kirin 980 SoC inside... so I guess it is normal..
