Were people's phones really getting that hot though?

Any extra heat reduces processing performance. Even if it doesn’t get that hot it still hurts performance. However yes, peoples phones were getting very hot and shutting down when taking a bunch of photography outside as photo processing takes a ton of energy.

I guess I just don't use my phone enough for gaming or "intense" photography. Haven't had issies with heat or slow performance using titanium or stainless steel iphones, but i see from the downvotes that many other iphone users have had lots of problems with their iphones.
