not very good
Playing MC5 or asphalt8 with light brightness dosent lasts the phone long, but does better than my other devices,
Endures 5 hrs with straight heavy usage.
4.5 hours SOT

Hahah .true story
Haven't faced any lag issue or anything with heavy usage and gaming.
on heavy usage its smooth no lag with normal heating.
At heavy use I experience mild to moderate heating.
heats up heavy usage.
Very noticeable heating while gaming.

Gets 3 hours on heavy usage.
phone tends to struggle with heavy usage like games,gets warm which results in a lower battery battery life, getting around 2 hours of SOT
Heavy usage I just get 2 hrs.
Average of 3 hours on heavy use.
Sent from my DUK-L09 using XDA Labs
on heavy usage 3.30 hrs
on an avg 3 hours on heavy usage. this phone is not meant to be used heavily
heated up on heavy usage..and battery started to drain
Some phones are great to take camping because if you play Asphalt 8 long enough, the back warms up to the ideal temperature that can bake bread. Rate this thread to express the extent to which the Xiaomi Mi A1 stays cool under extended heavy use. A higher rating indicates that even when playing strenuous games for long periods of time, the phone doesn't get uncomfortably warm.

I use Mi A1 on 4g data n also play some online games still the phone doesn't get uncomfortably warm and can be used easily so heating issues for me.... Maybe there is a problem with your device.
Heating while charging both phone and charger is normal?
It's quite relative when you say "heat"
Any quantify unit so we on the same page? I'm using GSam Battery Monitor and my range is from 30 celsius to 40 (max). Charging with all apps off from 40% to 80% would bring the heat to 40 celsius, but the heat gradually went down (like 1 to 3 degree less, from 40 celsius) when it's from 80% to 99%
Playing Hitman Sniper would hit 40 celsius too, but I won't do it while charging.
My device never gets even warm.
Only lukewarm (hand temperature) while playing 3 different games for an hour.
Mine got warm (not HOT) once or twice while surfing web in wifi at max brightness, at sun light in days of +35ºC (95F)... so I assume that was normal
Rest of the time it seems cool even while charging
Compared to Oneplus One I previously use, Mi A1 doesn't generate much heat. Slightly warm but not finger burning heat like how I experienced with Oneplus One when playing games.
In my opinion, do not turn on cellular data it will cause heat, clean apps running background
Hello everyone.
I own pro version of mate 10 and when i play games on it (like PubG and Modern combat 5)on very high settings it start Lagging constantly and FPS drops quickly i don't know why is this happening on high end device..If someone know how to handle this situation please tell me..
Thank You.

Buy another phone, not Huawei their Kirin processors are not good. They somehow perform well in benchmarks but they are a lot worse in real life than snapdragon or exynos (and of course apple)
I benchmarked many games... Maximum 10 min of gaming then there is thermal throttling because it gets too hot. Then fps drops 1/3 at least.
Just tested pubg on HDR setting and anti aliasing enabled. It starts with 40fps but after 5 min drops to 15-25fps and also lags, unplayable.
Even normal games with not so good graphics get fps drops after 10-15min like Sonic. Common Huawei, my sister is playing Sonic on a 250€ Samsung A5 2017
Look at the screenshots, it starts with 40fps but many lags and frame drops. After a couple minutes it drops to constant 20fps. The other shows CPU usage but that is not working obviously. Somehow it gets an average of 30fps but that's bs. It is not playable.
Yeah.. Same with me when i switch to HD settings of pubG it lags little bit.. But when i switch on HDR it become unplayable. I will upgrade to one plus soon.
Thanks
if you got root then disable the power genius app and restart. this app slows phone down to prevent overheat. i tested this with pubg and asphalt 8 at 60fps. constant 60 FPS even after 30 mins of gaming. with HDR i get constant 40-45.
PS: the phone will get warm because of 12 GPU cores so be in a cool room while playing.
same here. using m10p and lagging on PubG even on High settings. But it improved on the latest firmware (BLA-L29 C636 B138)
PUBG lagg on Mate 10 Pro not because of Kirin. It laggs because PUBG is not optimized game at all. Same for people that play PUBG throu their desktop computers. I watched my friend playing PUBG on his 2k PC and still gettin' FPS dropped and lagg. Although Mate gets hot after 10 till 20 minutes of gaming.
Interesting to read this, I have a Note 8 atm and I play a lot of PUBG, I'm about to trade my Note 8 in for a Mate 10 Pro (Don't judge) as I'm a little bored of my phone now and annoyed of the poor battery life and awful mono speaker. The Mate 10 Pro ticks more boxes for what I require, so I'm hoping a software update will fix the FPS.
I don't play PubG but I do however play the recently released Asphalt 9 which as far as I know is pretty intensive and get minimal heat and it runs smooth for well over a hour, I don't notice any FPS drop, I haven't checked statistically what it's running at while playing but if the drop was severe then I'd definitely notice it

Thanks for this info, sounds like I should expect similar to what I get at the moment then, maybe an improvement once the update comes out to boost the GPU.
I used to play Shadow Fight 3. Till the release of update 142 it worked flawlessly,even on longer playing sessions....then,dunno what brains of Huawei did,it became unplayable.

Sounds to me that they like bringing out these new features, meaning these new features are "let's break something that worked perfectly before"...that's the gist I've got off these forums.....I'm hoping I'm not going to regret my decision now I've ordered the Mate 10 Pro
Exactly. That was my thought too.
But I'm keeping it cuz of job and unrivaled battery life. As a business phone it's flawless.

Playing pubG from 10 mins. Hitting 50+ on the celsius. Isn't this quite abnormal? Hasn't happened while playing pubG before. I'm running the latest update.
This is the CPUs temperature, to me its quite normal when playing heavy games...
Other user please verified this...
What settings did you play on? On the default HD-High mine is running 40-45-46. On the higher settings it goes in the 50s.

Mine max was 45°C but it's quite normal and as we all know this is because of software problem and the fix is coming soon.
If you use CPU float, that's the CPU reading. And that could reach up to 50-63 degress, hell if you use antutu benchmark it can go all the way 93 C for a split second!
Battery seems to be in the 39-42 C range depending on the environment.

OP this is CPU and GPU temperature not battery (OR surface ) temperature.This is normal ,CPU and GPU goes above 85 Antutu or in gaming for any normal phone.Only thing matters is Battery temp which is perfectly normal.

The heat pipe system in it works very well... this phone should never run hot. If it does, something is wrong.
Mine needed extensive optimization to run cool... it's my favorite phone now. Like having a laptop in my palm. Avoid "upgrading" to Q, it's a nightmare.

All phones with good cpu/gpu get hot when gaming for long time.
There is not any thing wrong with that.
Exynos phones get very hot ingame, cpu temp can go up to 70c.
If your note 10 don't get warm after 1h asphalt 8 there is something wrong with it like low fps and or trottle.
Batteri temp in heavy game around 40c
Cpu temp in heavy game (Exynos chip) 60c-70c.
Your phone will be warm..

No.
107 F is too hot*. This isn't a desktop cpu; running an LI battery this hot will greatly diminish its lifespan.
Some of the CPU heat plus the extra current drain heat the LI bat up. I never let my battery temp exceed 103 F when in use or 100 F during a charge. >85 during charging is better.
Put a damp rag around it or on the backside if in use to cool it if the ambient temp is too high...
*43 C is fine for CPU temp as long as the battery isn't getting baked. F is easier for real world temp measurement.
My cpu and chips are running at about 104 F while the battery is at 95F; the ambient temp is about 90 F, acceptable.
This with a light cpu load with brightness at about 40%
For heavy cpu usage at these temps for more than 10 minutes would drive the battery temp unexceptably high without external cooling.
Monitor the battery temp. Lol, if the phone feels very warm/hot it's damp rag or shutdown time.
F is easier for"real world" ? F are only used in ONE country! Which, by no means equals ALL the world, science, real science uses metric system

The Fahrenheit scale is centered around the temperature zone most used by humans.
A 10° F isn't too much a of a change but modest amount.
A 10° C change is huge.

122 F is really hot for a cell phone... a very expensive hand warmer. When a phone feels hot; it's already too hot. This will greatly shorten LI life especially if above a 90% charge.
Current drain* at idle with 50% brightness level should be below 220 ma. Typical idle current on this one averages at 140-200 ma.
If it's running >400 ma, something's running in the background sucking the life out of it.
I use different temp apps. Been playing with the Gitlab one.
It's 26.6C (80 F) ambient temp here and the CPU is averaging about 35.5 C (96 F) as I'm using the Note.
Battery temp is the only one I need to really watch.
I monitor that and battery current drain.
*AT&T variat, not rooted but heavily optimized.

exynos is running hot, there is not mutch you can do.
Here is one example
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LfZUNL5hyVw
If you pause the video when he start antutu you can se the cpu temp of the s20 ultra (about 56c without any massive load).
My old s8 with exynos got warm and it worked just fine for 2 years, sure i lost a few % on the batteri.
After 2 years just get a new batteri and enjoy.
I know snappdragon is running mutch cooler, but make sure you get a app that show the right temp. 35c in a 26.6C room sounds like idle temp at best.

For you Fahrenheit may sound "logical" as you grew up with it. For us - the rest of the world - we grew up with Celsius. We don't need a scale "centered around a temp zone used by humans", we know what effect a 10°C drop in temperature has on us...nothing ackward about it.

Unlike the metric system of temperature measurement it is uniquely centered in a range where most living occurs... 96.8° is a better way to index human body temp. One degree matters.

Trying out this temp apk:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.novelmatrix.temperaturemonitor
It will display in the corner of the screen real time. Low resource usage. Some ads on set up but liking it so far.
At 96° ambient I'm seeing the CPU, GPU typically going between 102-118 F depending on usage.
Browsing it's running between 100-102 F
Internet vid jumps to about 114 F at this ambient temp.
Obviously higher for cpu/gpu intense apks, haven't benchmark it yet with this running.
The battery is at 96.8 F and typically runs cooler.
The heat pipe seem to work well; dissipates heat rapidly from the cpu and helps keep the battery temp down.
