So I’m noticing this more in the summer temperatures, but my FP6 gets incredibly hot when I use a fast charger, to the extent that it’s almost uncomfortable to handle and remains so until a few minutes after I disconnect. Is this normal? It worries me a bit and makes me wonder whether it’s safe to l…

Which charger exactly are you using?

Mine too gets very hot, not just warm. I try to avoid fast charging when possible, because I’m worried about deteriorating the OLED screen over time.

Is 32 °C too hot or even dangerous for the FP6? I ask this because mine goes very easily to 37-38 (and sometimes 42) during battery charges, even if I have slow charging always activated and use the FP charger.

I would set the phone to eco charge and contact support. And make regular backups.
