Hello people, I have my Fairphone 6 just resent like 1.5 month but I was picking up my Fairphone when charging and around the middle and top of the screen is getting pretty hot! I have slow charging on! So I don’t understand why this happening l! Have more people this problem l? And is there a solu…

hello, could you say what was the temperature? You could easily check it in MyFairphoneApp - phone health, but there are also some dedicated apps to measure that

No I don’t have the temperature for you but with touch is was pretty warm/hot!

Thanks for getting back to me. I understand you are worried. I cannot help further. My phone (FP5) gets warm from time to time, sometimes more than I would wish for, but I don’t remember it ever gone outside of the limits suggested by FP on their website, please have a look for reference [image] …

Or perhaps it cannot differentiate between outside and inside temperature, which means you must allow for some headroo…

My phone has the same issue. When I am charging from ~20% to 80%, the phone heats up to ~45°C according to the My Fairphone app. I am using the original Fairphone charger on slow charging speed (20W?) and charge limit to 80%.

I’m getting the impression that the eco charging feature is maybe not implemented in software yet
