I have been using my Xperia pro I for 3 months & is experiencing overheating issues with battery charging, recording on Cinenapro & Video pro 4K at 120-60 fps & automatic shutdown from recording severe overheating warning alert, playbacks & with viewing social media video contents & refresh rate set at 120, my previous Xperia 1 m 2 after 3 years of use had it's battery expanded to over twice it's size & back cover seal pop out & potentially of possibly exploding. On the other hand my first Xperia XZ premium did not suffered from any of the same issues after 3+ years. Why is battery overheating issues more prominent with higher refresh rate, 4K recording of 60 fps & higher & larger battery capacity seems to be the culprit....

Hi! Didn't find thread like this.
Please post Your temp. of phone during casual usage. Not hard playing games. Just plain internet surfing, camera using, video capture, calls. Just for statistics.
I can say, after 12 measurements, that:
During casual use i have 26/28° C
In stand-by my temperature is 21° C
Playing a tegra 3 game for 30 mins 46/49° C
However I think the values are also affected by the ambient temperature in which the phone operates. Mine is 18° C
Would you say that the Sony Xperia X Compact is "fast" in day-to-day use? A higher rating indicates that you think the Sony Xperia X Compact exhibits fantastic performance. Like, is it as fast as your tears when you watch The Titanic?
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
X Compact has really surprised me with its responsiveness. I was expecting a slower phone due to its slower processor but I have been blown away with its responsiveness which surpassed my higher end phone. It must be a combination of its less demanding screen processing with a smaller screen and its updated android version on 7.1.1
I am blown away too. A 7.1.1 update made this a true beast. Coming from Moto Z all I can say I am impressed.
I'd say that overall speed is okay. I'm not blown away by the 30MB/s hardware R/W limitation of the SD card controller. I and a few others with this device have cards that reach well in excess of those speeds (see photo - yes, it's on Windows but tested 3x with different .iso images; on separate media, and never read/written to either device before), and having external storage is certainly a must have in this day and age. I won't really blame the controller speed, it's just an ongoing problem with Android -- where to fix its speed and efficiency (perpetual bloat), you just throw faster hardware at it without really fixing anything (optimization).
What really gets me is that Battery Care turns "on" when I tell it to, but it causes more performance issues than it saves battery. It appears to use the same amount of battery whether it's enabled or disabled whether low/moderate/high - so it's detrimental to performance with no real gain in battery (a day's charge is a day's charge). Sony did a pretty good job of optimizing the stock ROM for performance/battery without the middle management (using International/Chinese).
Is recording video at 4K or 4K60fps limited to 10 minutes or 5 minutes?

The recording length is only limited by your battery life and storage.
N.B. - as you'd probably expect, the phone gets extremely hot as you record for long periods.
A YouTuber recently done a video regarding does switching to a lower resolution actually save you battery. The answer? NO! It's just a myth.

All credit goes to the original owner of the video.
I just saved 15% on battery life by switching to a lower resolution.
I just shutoff my phone and i saved 100% of my battery

Did you switch it to a lower resolution after turning it off though?
I didn't bother looking at the video sorry but, reducing the resolution does help with battery life, just not in a direct way.
When you're just browsing social media or replying to emails having a higher/lower resolution does nothing, as its mostly the CPU doing the heavy lifting here, but when you're watching videos or playing games, lowering the resolution will result in less GPU usage and sometimes also the CPU, which in result would consume less power.
For regular daily use the resolution won't make much of a difference, but if you're someone who consumes lots of Netflix or HDR videos, maybe play games like Pubg, fortnite or whatever a lot, you'll appreciate the little extra minutes lowering the resolution would give you, not to mention the extra performance that comes with it, as the GPU has less pixels to calculate.
The same concept applies to computers as well, its actually what Im basing my explanation on, but to get a precise results you'll have to do some tests/benchmarks with controlled variables.
If you play lots of games or watch lots of videos, you might wanna have the resolution at 1080p, otherwise 1440p will do just fine, the difference isn't that huge unless you're constantly forcing the GPU.
You wont with normal use. But you will with playing games at lower resolution, not to mention having a better frame rate!
Dont believe it. Try to play F1 mobile racing for about 1 hour and you will see!
My device (Note 9 pro) has been working weird today then I noticed serious battery drain then I opened a heavy game and couldn't play it on even lowest settings when before it was working fine with 60fps CPU usage has been upped from 27-35% in game to 67-78% , what should I do to solve this or should I wait for an update? Also anyone else facing this?
